Eight in 10 New York towns and cities have lost population since 2020

Interesting statistical breakdown, but not terribly surprising.

From here.

High density states losing to low density not surprising, and I’d surprised if most towns (not cities) around the U.S. are losing populations given the centralization in our economy.

Even with that said, among the top 10 large U.S. cities with the largest population declines 2017-22 were Paradise, NV; Jackson, MS; Hialeah, FL; and Birmingham, AL, so this isn’t simply a red state/blue state story. More about warm vs cold weather and people exchanging high for low cost of living (and that is supply/demand as we see how much less affordable places like Phoenix and Austin and Charlotte become once density built up.)
