yet another urban hellhole
According to data from the Economic Innovation Group, some 2 million people fled large US cities from 2020-2022, with the largest exodus taking place in 2020-21:
Domestic outmigration from large urban counties to suburbs and exurbs continued in 2022, though at a slower pace than the year prior. Over 1.2 million people left large urban counties between July 1, 2020 and July 1, 2021, with nearly 800,000 flowing into the suburbs and exurbs; this movement continued to a lesser degree in 2022. Large urban counties trimmed losses to 861,000 last year, while inflows to the suburbs halved and domestic migration to exurban counties fell by one-quarter.
California and New York were especially badly hit by people leaving Democrat tyranny zones in 2022, with 300,000 people fleeing the Sunshine State and 343,000 pulling out of the Big Apple. Where do they go? Florida and Texas for starters, and can you blame them.
vote for the progressives, idiots
Serious question, are we heading for a black flag national divorce?

The second photo reminds me of Detroit. Home to almost 2 million people in 1950 it is gradually turning back to meadows and forests. Blocks upon blocks of empty streets with maybe 1 or 2 houses still standing and occupied.
ReplyDeleteDecades of Democrat policies...urban renewal, urban freeways, great society, drugs, cross neighborhood school busing and more urban renewal.
Ah, DOS, I know what you mean. The 2nd photo is old, back when Detroit still had stand up ruins.
