Here are the Top 10 in %Growth 2020-2022:

1. Lakeland, FL (+8.60%)
2. Fort Myers, FL (+8.10%)
3. Sarasota, FL (+6.92%)
4. Austin (+6.03%)
5. Raleigh (+4.98%)
6. Jacksonville (+4.35%)
7. Dallas (+4.01%)
8. Charleston (+3.86%)
9. San Antonio (+3.80%)
10. Tampa (+3.64%)

I bet Tampa shot up this list even more in 2023. It's exploding.

I'm one of the few I guess who moved back to Louisiana. Someone mentioned insurance. That's a big deal here. As in, both property insurance in the southern part of the state, but also commercial auto insurance anywhere in the state. Thanks to our lack of tort reform, businesses are choosing to move out of state instead of paying hellacious transportation insurance.

Yes. All of Central Florida is. The metros of Tampa + Orlando + Fort Myers + Sarasota + Lakeland + Daytona + Melbourne + Port St Lucie had 9.9 million people at the start of the decade. At current growth rates, they will be a combined 12.6 million by 2030.

That 2.7 million in growth that will occur in just ten years is basically the equivalent of current metro Charlotte, NC being created in a 10-year period and plopped down in the middle of Central Florida.
