[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=ModeratelyMoco]After County Exec Elrich posted a tweet saying the population is actually growing, we decided to take a closer look at the population trends in Montgomery County, Frederick County and the state with full charts based on actual U.S. Census data. https://moderatelymoco.com/cracking-the-mystery-of-montgomery-countys-population-from-boom-to-bust/ [img]https://i0.wp.com/moderatelymoco.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/MM_MD_Fred_2020_2022_population.png?resize=2048%2C1749&ssl=1[/img] Conclusion: "Yes, Montgomery County population has shrank over the last 3 years and Frederick County has had tremendous growth. The County Executive quoted a website that while it was the top hit on Google, does not appear to be using actual U.S. Census data and is not accurate according to U.S. Government sources." [/quote] Of course that slide in no way validates OP’s premise that people are moving FROM MoCo TO Frederick…[/quote] Exactly..and we are talking about de minimis numbers. [/quote] Yes, I didn't see any data showing the migration of people from MoCo to Frederick.. All I see is that Frederick gained residents and MoCo lost some, but it doesn't mean MoCo folks are going to Frederick. Sure, there were 3 people they interviewed but that doesn't prove anything. 2 of the people were old- one had been living in Frederick for 27 years; and one guy moved from Montgomery Village. Also, other counties (even VA) lost people, and not to mention they're looking at a trend over the past 3 years.. I guess they're not considering covid, WFH, and how a bunch of people moved during that timeframe? Such bad analysis and terrible reporting. [/quote]
