[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP commenting that the population is going to grow by 20%, where did you get your data? Please provide a link to your numbers.[/quote] Not PP but the US population in general has been growing and continues to grow. Most of that growth is in cities, like in this area. In this area (the entire MSA), growth from 1990-2000 was 25% (about 1mln more people), and 2000-2010 was 15% (700k more people). The estimate based on 2017 numbers is about 580k more people just in the last 7 years (about 11%). I guess we'll have some hard number in about 2 years' time once the census is done. Just the 580k in the last 7 years -- that's like taking about 1.5 Loudoun county's worth of people and adding them to this area. That's a huge amount by any measure.[/quote]
