census

I can't remember the year, but I recall that St. Louis used to be one of the 20 largest cities in America. Not anymore. How much has St. Louis shrunk? 70 cities in America now boast a larger population than the Gateway City.

Is your town among one of the ten best places to live in Indiana for 2024?

I was always under the impression that the population in Kansas City, Missouri has exploded upward in recent years. That perception is apparently wrong (partially) based on new data that shows parts of the city are actually shrinking.

Populations come and go as life happens, but one specific Illinois city is shrinking so fast one out of every ten residents has left in the past 5 years alone.

There is a reason why Missouri is known as "the Heartland" to many. It's right in the middle of America and that includes population, but that "center" is on the move meaning it might not always remain in Missouri as a new map shows.

This undercounting of Illinois' population has a massive ripple effect, but the truth has been revealed Illinois GREW in population to its highest mark ever. We are stunned.

With the help of the latest census data, no guessing is required.

Officials said a 1 percent undercount is equal to $195 million lost to Illinois and local communities.

Turns out people spent the last decade moving out of Illinois.

With a loss of over 100,000 residents in the last 9 years, and a steady population decrease over the last 5 years, 2020's census will probably cost us a seat.
