East TN is absolutely thriving on transplants. The only issue I see is the kids not seeing the benefits that made the parents move here. Parents leave a blue area the the kids loved tend to see the kids not understanding the problem with blue.

Johnson City, Jonesborough, Elizabeton, Kingsport, Bristol, etc., are being overun by yankees thanks to ETSU.

I think they moved St Tammany into its own MSA for 2022. I don’t know for sure if link’s listed 2020 numbers were adjust for the new boundaries (I think they are), but if you scroll down rankings you will see Covington, mandeville, and Slidell MSA at #183 with 273,263 people for 2022 which would have been a part of New Orleans in 2020 (the map pic shows 2020 boundaries).

If you use 2020 boundaries for New Orleans MSA with 2022 numbers it would have still lost population, but it would have been over 1.2 million people.

I didn’t realize Hammond was its own MSA now (all of Tangipahoa Parish, Louisiana). It seems it’s been included in New Orleans MSA and in Baton Rouge’s MSA in the past.

I agree completely with your assessment of the leadership, but where’d you get your numbers?

Quick google search indicates:

Nola metro 1,013,000 people with .8% growth YoY ‘22 to ‘23

Birmingham metro 843,000 people with .82% growth YoY ‘22 to ‘23




Actually a quick google search indicates those numbers are either wrong or extremely outdated. The metropolitan area populations for each MSA as of July 2022 show the following...

Birmingham, AL MSA - 1,181,196

New Orleans-Metarie, LA MSA - 972,913

The drop in New Orleans MSA population is due to commuting patterns changing to the point where St. Tammany is now its own MSA and is no longer included as part of the New Orleans metro area.

People always forget about the Myrtle Beach MSA.

Its up to 383k as of 2022, and growing at a whopping 9%. Probably one of the fastest by percentage.



Myrtle Beach, SC and Daphne/Fairhope/Foley, AL are two of the fastest growing metros outside of Florida and Texas

2022 2020

Myrtle Beach - 383,101 351,029 9.14%
Daphne/Fairhope/Foley - 246,435 231,767 6.33%

Yeah, metro New Orleans lost the Covington/Mandeville/Slidell from its MSA when it became its own MSA. Same thing happened to metro Mobile, AL several years ago when it lost Baldwin County when Daphne/Fairhe/Foley became its own MSA separate from metro Mobile

Edisto Beach WAS the best kept secret in SC. As posted earlier, Hardeeville might as well be part of Savannah now. If I were moving to SC today? Conway or Little River. I’m too old to pull up roots now, so I’m staying put in Goose Creek.

Yep...

Plenty of people pick up and move once the golden goose has been killed off in their home state or city.

And then when they find a new golden goose, they don't change their ways to prevent the same result.

To make the transition smoother, it's crucial to research and plan carefully. Finding reliable movers, understanding the local housing market, and preparing for climate differences are all essential steps. It's also helpful to connect with local communities and resources early on to feel more at home quickly.

I moved last year, and it was pretty tough. I encountered issues like unexpected moving costs, delayed deliveries, and settling into a new environment. I recently read an article about Military Moving Tips, which offered some valuable advice. For example, creating a detailed inventory of your belongings, packing an essentials box, and understanding your moving contract can save you a lot of stress. These tips would have been very helpful during my move, and they might help you too. If you're planning a move, you can find more helpful information at https://threemovers.com.

New Orleans metro is now down under 1 million…. It’s now 973,000 as of 2022. That’s well smaller than even Birmingham which is not at all a growth juggernaut itself.

Just terrible leadership and mismanagement for what was once one of America’s great cities. The storms have exacerbated the problem for sure.


its unfixable too.

I'm from there, its impossible to fix.

Sucks because it was a great city, but it has really gone down hill expecially with the current mayor who is one of the worst of all time.

Baldwin County is larger in size than Delaware. As crime gets worse in Mobile,
the population empties into Baldwin County as well as Yankee transplants. The infrastructure is way behind and local governments are in the pockets of developers. Once the family obligations are over, we are leaving.

The major cities and most desirable places get too expensive, people look for the next tier of places to call home. When they get expensive too, on to the next tier.

Part of it but there is also a HUGE industrial building boom going on in South Carolina. Lots of manufacturing jobs being created. Also a sizeable expansion of military and health care facilities in the Augusta, GA metro area. Its booming the length of I-20 and from Charlotte to Beaufort.

Looks to me like people are moving from shitty liberal policy states to conservative bastions


While that idea is comforting to conservatives the fact of the matter is they may leave their fouled nest but they bring the ideas that fouled their nest with them. Take Atlanta and Austin as your harbinger of things to come.....not that that is a bad thing, I am not making a judgement, it is just what happens.
