New Census numbers confirm the resurgence of cities
Posted December 15, 2010 by Daniel Nairn

With the release of the new American Community Survey data on Tuesday, we are now able to see how the fine-grained nature of metropolitan areas has changed over the last few years. This is the first release since the 2000 Census that really provides enough detail to map these changes, and the New York Times has stepped up to the plate with a handy mapping tool. The Census American Factfinder website will get an upgrade in about a month, and mapping will be much easier once that happens.

Walker thanks for sharing. Look at North of Broad and NOBO on the MAP. Compared to 2000 it is a different world over here now - Hope the retailers "rediscover" E Long Street and our hood.... The demographic changes should be pretty compelling for anyone looking to move to this part of urban Columbus. Looks like a very positive trend in King Lincoln and BTW we and the neighbors have actively been reporting to Columbus code - junked vehicles. 311.columbus.gov. and involved in the Block Watches. If the junkers and INOPS are on the street or in a yard in any downtown neighborhood please spread the word to report them. It is all about PRIDE and 15 year old trucks with trees growing out of them and rotten tires belong in a scrap yard, on a farm, not in downtown Columbus IMHO. I don't want to look at them b/c frankly they contribute to blight and a "I don't care attitude" My 2 cents. Happy Holidays and God Bless!

It looks like they conveniently cropped off the north side of the map, where the majority of suburban growth has been. Makes you wonder if they did this in other cities too and how impartial this really is?

The maps posted on that blog are only screen shots from the NY Times ACS census viewer.
Go to the website to see the whole map, it's zoomable, movable and has more data to view.

http://projects.nytimes.com/census/2010/explorer

Just a note though, these ACS figures that they are basing this on are just that, estimates with very wide margins of error in some case. In fact, some researchers are questioning if they should even be used.
(these are all derived off of the american community survey multi-year estimates, not the decennial census).

Immigrants Make Paths to Suburbia, Not Cities
By SABRINA TAVERNISE and ROBERT GEBELOFF
Published: December 14, 2010

Immigrants fanned out across the United States in the last decade, settling in greater numbers in small towns and suburbs rather than in the cities where they typically moved when they first came to this country, new census data show.

Following jobs to rural and suburban areas, in industries like construction and the food business, immigrant populations rose more than 60 percent in places where immigrants made up fewer than 5 percent of the population in 2000. In areas that had been home to the most immigrants, the foreign-born population was flat over that period.

For a hundred years, Americans have been moving south and west. This, with an occasional hiccup, has continued, according to the 2010 Census.

Michael Barone commentary: Census data contain many interesting nuggets
Monday, December 27, 2010
BY MICHAEL BARONE

For those of us who are demographic buffs, Christmas came early when Census Bureau Director Robert Groves announced on Tuesday the first results of the 2010 Census and the reapportionment of House seats (and therefore electoral votes) among the states.

The population of the United States, he told us in a webcast, was 308,745,538. That's an increase of 9.7 percent from the 281,421,906 in the 2000 Census - the smallest proportional increase than in any decade other than the Depression 1930s but a robust increase for an advanced nation.

Futureman-
Can you tell how much of Cincinnati's growth occured in Warren County? I ask because I see northern Warren County more associated with Dayton than with Cincinnati. I have family in the area, and there has been an explosion of suburban growth in the area, but I don't particularly see it as being associated with Cincinnati. Most of the residents in that area more closely identify with Dayton.

Cincinnati and Dayton are on the verge of becoming a single metro area (probably mid-2010s) and the drop in Montgomery Cty population includes a lot of folks moving into northern Butler and Warren Cty which are both a part of the Cincy MSA.

I was thinking the same thing. Beyond that, Cinci's MSA covers counties in three states!
