@eeriestare48 Well, that and housing availability and affordability. Many counties surrounding Columbus, Ohio, are seeing building booms as people can't afford the sticker prices of homes in the market. This leads to the smaller cities getting larger and more populated. That growth extends into other metropolitan areas. For example, areas east of Dayton have been seeing uptick in people looking in Columbus, finding the market limited and expensive and moving outward. Cincinnatians are looking in Kentucky or Indiana, or further east, northeast, or north (Dayton) for housing. Wilmington, Ohio, has long been a commuter suburb. Exburbs or smaller cities are growing all around Toledo while Cleveland's is doing the same.
In Georgia, it's Savannah. And the college town I'm in an hour away, Statesboro, is growing rapidly too. There's new streets and shopping centers being built. And I do food delivery and ive had trouble finding new addresses all the time that aren't even on the map yet. What baffles me is how the cities can't learn a damn thing from other cities notorious for traffic like Atlanta. If you build your city the same way, you're gonna have the exact same problems! That's what this city is doing. There's a highway that wraps around city. What's happening though is many typical cul de sacs are being built outside the city, which is going to increase the traffic. Meanwhile in the main part there's entire department stores and half of a mall that have been empty for many years now, with enormous parking empty parking lots too. Some people are just incapable of learning.
As a resident of Lee County, Florida, please for the love of God, do not move here. We are full. In 2010 we had 620k full time residents. As of 2022 we had 822k. And ppl are pouring in every single day.
@@DeeRussI’ve lived in Franklin my whole life. Looks NOTHING like it did 10 years ago. Same goes to downtown Nashville and places all around it. Sad to see
It is. You should move here despite what all the dummies say about how "it's full". I think they forgot they moved here once too or grew up and decided to stay.
St. George has grown like crazy and I'm sure the other ones have too. It's honestly insane the amount of commercial and residential developments being built that you just don't see in other cities.
I was born and raised near Murfreesboro. The growth got to be too much, I decided to purposefully move somewhere where the population is actually declining (PDX) and I don’t regret it one bit. The former “it” cities that are now left in the dust by other, more currently trendy places are oftentimes awesome.
Raleigh in NC is growing so fast. The suburbs especially. cary NC went from 137k to 188k people from 2010 -2022. Wake forest almost doubled-- 30k to 53k from 2010 to 2023
You should see the growth of the Huntsville AL metro area. We were “full” by 2011 so I moved north to Michigan since they were losing population. Strategic move on my part, because housing was ironically cheaper and jobs were opening up from what locals call “the 2008 exodus” when tons of people from IL, MI, IN, and OH, flooded my area in AL. 😂
@@PSTXFL I got the heck out of AL to move out of the heat and tornadoes, but also for the snow. In Michigan, the lakes are SO clear, there’s always something to do, the beach is a 45 minute drive away, and we have recreational you know what lol it’s nice here. Alabama was just hot, humid, stormy, people were very in your business in a negative way, the winters were just dull, the water was murky. I could go on lol it’s just personal preference.
I like your videos. Just be aware that your subtitles are too low in the video frame, so they are being covered by the UI from the UA-cam app. Maybe you can move it up for the next video. Keep up the good work!
Try fastest growing U.S. metro areas..... Just in the top 5, there are 4 FL metro areas. Ironically the Cape Coral/Ft. Myers metro is not included in the top 10.
So, basically, big cities outside of larger cities?
yeah. urban sprawl. people wanna live close to big cities w/o exactly living in them

@@eeriestare48 Fort Myers and Cape Coral arent exactly near any other big cities. Its 2 and half hours to Tampa and closer to 3 to Miami.
Except for St. George, yeah. Next closest thing of any size is Vegas, which is about a 2 hour drive away
@JayYoung-ro3vu thats fair. its just like that where i live. urban sprawl is a big thing

I'm going to move there now just in spite of this comment. 😁
Collier county is now probably more expensive to live than LA 😂
@@nr8626not quite! Although your homeowner’s insurance is through the roof!
For perspective Iceland has 380k people, more than twice the population of a well known country in a single county 😨
Northwest Florida says please keep heading to South Florida, don't stop here
I could never live in Florida....too many bugs, alligators, hot humid weather and way too many people.
Call me crazy but I also like human rights and sane governors so Florida is definitely out for me.
All of middle tennessee is growing insane
On the track to look like Atlanta
Gentrification will replace the country side and natural areas, heritage and culture will be displaced by city people, money controls our life
@@DeeRussI’ve lived in Franklin my whole life. Looks NOTHING like it did 10 years ago. Same goes to downtown Nashville and places all around it. Sad to see
St George Utah seems like a really nice place to live.
We're full. Please don't
@@ethangray7084ok now I’m moving there
It won't be

Why would anyone ever want to move to Fort Myers? I almost moved there in third grade and I thank G-d everyday that I didn't.
What’s wrong with it? Asking since I never been there.

I think Georgetown in Texas is growing most
Fort Myers is like next to Cape Coral lol
point taken: just do not move to SW Florida

I don't really consider cities in metro areas. They're all the same basically, all have through traffic from other cities.
I live near St. George, Utah!

Craziest part about fort myers is that hurricane in 2022 basically destroying everything and people still chose to move there lolll

Yes. It's why I took off middle Tennesee as a place to move. I can move to our state capital if I want similar (minus the cowboy hats & boots-darn).
What state
Hot weather places don't appeal to me....
May I ask where you live now?
I thought it would be Chicago, NYC, and LA, but none of them
They are losing population
Printers of the Holy Bible ate there. Coincidence?
Whut?
