From Space: The Fastest Growing U.S. Cities

  • Data in this video comes from Global Insight's report to the United States Conference of Mayors and The Council on Metro Economies and the New American City. According to the report, economic growth in US metropolitan areas in the coming decades will test their infrastructures. Employment and population are two major drivers for congestion-related costs.
    Over the next decade, the 15 metros with the largest increases in employment will be adding at least a quarter of a million jobs each. The strain on current transportation infrastructure cannot be understated as 12 of these 15 metros already rank among the 15 highest in congestion per commuter.
    In addition to employment growth, which will put further strain on rush hour commutes, general population gains will also contribute to congestion. Population growth will be highest in the South, including Dallas, Houston, Atlanta, and Miami - four of the top five largest population gainers through 2020.
    Over the longer-term, the picture is not any better. Total metro area population will grow by 32% from 2012-2042 and will be especially fast in some of the nation's largest metros. Population will advance by over 50% in Dallas, Houston, Atlanta, Tampa, Denver, San Antonio, and by over 80% in Phoenix, Riverside, and Orlando. Houston and Dallas already rank among the most congested metros; if there is not significant investment in infrastructure congestion costs will be astronomical and will stifle long-term economic potential.

    San Antonio is one of the fastest growing metros, probably the third fastest in the country. I'm surprised it was not recognized. 2.3 million today by 2042 it should be over 4 million and merged with Austin, nearly 8 million people in the south-central Texas region.

Just because a city is appealing now doesn't mean it will in 20 years. I won't feel sorry for 2 million people having to refuge somewhere else when the water supply is all but gone.

    The thing about Houston is that it has plenty of land area to adjust to its growing population. It actually has 627 miles ^2. It is bigger than New York City and just so you have a clear image it can fit both Dallas and Chicago (combined) within its land area. Hurricanes may pose a problem here and there, but it hasn't stopped it from development and expansion. It is an energy city and has a good hospital and school systems. It is like a midwestern city combined with a metropolis.

    • @nicetoeveryonedontpushit3090
      @nicetoeveryonedontpushit3090 7 років тому +1

      G yaks I don't think so-- this happened when Katrina was near. It didn't get much exposure as it is getting now, and it still flooded. Also, not all of Houston is flooded. My aunt said Corpus Christi was the one actually hit hard(she lives there right now). Where was the news coverage on that by the way? I think the media is distorting the magnitude of events. Yes some roads are flooded and property damage did occur , but most of the property damage happens in zones known to flood even with plenty of rain from a rainy rainy day.
      I hope everyone is safe out there.

      I don't think Austin/San Antonio will be anywhere near as big as Dallas-Ft. Worth or Houston by 2042. Presently they are less than 2/3 the size of the 2 bigger metro areas in Texas and are adding less people per year. San Antonio should have been on this list. Houston has been adding more people annually for the last 10 years and it appears it would add more people by 2042 than DFW but things could change.

    • @williammaddox3339
      @williammaddox3339 7 років тому +3

      Actually currently Dallas is just over 1.3 million and San Antonio is just under 1.5 million. Bexar County will have fewer people than Houston in 2030 and unless they radically change annexation laws in Texas, there is no way San Antonio will be bigger than Houston in 2030.

    • @williammaddox3339

      I do not live in Texas. If Texas is changing the annexation laws, as you stated, Houston's population could explode to past 4 million; most of Harris County as well as parts of Montgomery and Fort Bend Counties are in Houston's extraterritorial jurisdiction. The population figures I am quoting from for Dallas and SA are the US Census' 2016 estimates.

      HostilePancakes, The One and Only The DC metro will have to expand massively into Virginia and Maryland if that is the growth case. The Beltways and Parkways just can’t take anymore traffic. Some days the rush hour traffic jams last all day and night. It’s ridiculous... the problems wouldn’t be near as bad if they also buried a new segment of i95 that was a direct connection north and south and kept those people driving thru away from those using the beltways to commute...

Now im 18 and just finished freshman year in college and when i graduate i would like to move somewhere in the ATL metro. Shit even Birmingham or Huntsville are better. But ATL would be better for job opportunity and the simple fact that there are actually things to do. I hate Alabama even though i was born and raised there. People ask me where im from all the time because i actually have a NYC ish accent which i get from Nas And Jay Z since i listened to them alot and the fact that im just more open minded to things then these closed minded people down here. I just gotta find an escape to somewhere man. It's too behind down here and everywhere i go i feel like im the smartest person in the room which is sad. Alabama doesn't live up to all it's stereotypes but it does live up to 90 percent of them. I see my self in a world class city like NY but thats only if it was still affordable. Hopefully fate takes me somewhere where i can spread my wings and flourish

The Suburbs are expanding like crazy and the city has unlimited room to expand and increase in population and giant housing developments. It has never decreased since it's been a city and it is the fastest growing city and suburbs in Ohio. I'm sure it's going to beat some of the cities like Salt Lake City,Utah and Raleigh-Cary, NC.

Columbus is a really nice city, maybe 1.75 to 2 million pop? didn't know bout it's great growth rate. do know it has a nice skyline and downtown. important to have that good downtown with people actually living there. average US city's lost downtown pop to urban sprawl. I'm gonna see if this source has all the other US cities. Louisville close to 1.5 so a lil smaller than Columbus. curios to see Louisville pop for 20 years out. I'd say we just break 2 million.

The amount of midrise buildings going up and renovations to the downtown area are amazing to see. However I still believe Columbus will need a metro rail system to boost it into a mega city. I've moved away several times to Chicago, D.C, Tampa, and Charlotte but I always end up back home. Ohio gets a bad rap sometimes but Ohio is actually a really good place to live. Good jobs and company's to work for, great schools, great people, tons of stuff to do, and beautiful scenery.

    I think this may be outdated now due to the simple fact that Seattle alone is growing at a ridiculous rate, not to mention Tacoma, which may soon become the second most populous city in the state. As a matter of fact, it's only a few thousand people behind Spokane right now. I don't really know much about Bellevue's growth rate, but I imagine that if anything, given the growth rate of the rest of the state it's probably seeing similar growth. We're already at 3.7 million (nearly 3.8 million), and if trends continue like this we could have well over 5 million, or even 6 million by 2040.

    The following metro areas will definitely not have this type of growth due to fast-rising sea levels already causing some serious 'nuisance' or 'sunshine' flooding: Miami, Tampa and Houston. Seattle, LA and NYC are better off because a good chunk of these cities are on high hills. But Miami, Tampa and Houston are on very low-lying plains with practically no hills. They will flood, and a lot.

    Cannot say I agree with Norberg on that point. Besides even if capitalist market relations were somehow just or globalization mutually beneficial (which is often not the case), resources on our planet are still being consumed faster than they can be replenished for a level of affluence not everyone can achieve at the same time.

    US 'cities' (or metorpolitan areas because suburbs are also now considered part of the larger 'urban' area) are hardly crowded and congested compared to other, more truly urban agglomerations around the world, mostly because American life is automobile-centric and there is so much space in the US. Despite having the 3rd most people of any country, there is a surprising amount of empty space in the US.

    Two things I don't get about this.
    1) Where people get the idea that they can project 30 year growth rates, and how they call that "data." I can pretty much guarantee that the growth rates projected for the Bay Area, Phoenix, and Las Vegas 30 years ago proved to be completely wrong.
    2) I don't know how "SF Oakland Fremont" is a metropolitan area, ignoring San Jose, which is the largest city in the area by population. And the population of SF is not going to increase, there is no space at all.
