New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago and other large cities lost the most residents during the pandemic city exodus last year as about 75 per cent of U.S. counties experienced a loss in population, according to a new report from the U.S. Census Bureau.
The agency revealed on Thursday that American's fled metropolitan areas between April 2020 to July 2021 in favor of the South West, with Dallas, Houston, Austin and Phoenix among those to see the largest growth last year.
The Census Bureau said: 'In 2021, fewer births, an aging population and increased mortality - intensified by the COVID-19 pandemic - contributed to a rise in natural [population] decrease' across the country,' but particular hitting big cities the hardest.'
That saw 75 per cent of all US counties record falling populations in 2021. The figure the year before was 55.5 per cent, and in 2019 it sat at 45.5 per cent. Much of the sharp increase has been blamed on COVID tearing through

The Kalifornicaton of Texas continues...
Dallas,Houston and Austin are all liberal hubs… liberals like to go where other liberals are.
Dallas is bigger than Houston?
The Kalifornicaton of Texas continues...
I hope the dolts that are coming here to Texas to settle in our 3 crap hole cities will realize what they’re running from can easily turn on them if they vote the same way that made them leave the crap holes they left!!.......damn!!!
Not a problem, they will just back fill with illegals.
I knew that Austin was. I assumed that Dallas and Houston only the city proper are, but the surrounding suburbs are not.
Metro areas.
Ft. Worth city adds close to a million people to Dallas metro!
Drivers beware…
Correct. The central parts of all 3 tend to lean democrat with Austin proper being quite heavy on the liberal side.
Most of the suburbs of all 3 are pretty damned normal
Great !! plenty of room to resettle all the illegals
I have 3 new nearby neighbors from CA in the last 2 years and all are Trump supporters. The one that amuses me most in that is a Russian from Newport Beach.
Coming soon to a precinct near you
We've implemented several processes at work that we requested for years. It wasn't until the remote work forced it that they finally implemented them.
The folks who left Miami-Dade County typically wind up in Broward south of 595 (which is the border between NY/NJ South and Latin America and the Caribbean North).
I’ll believe it when real estate prices go DOWN in San Francisco.
“The Kalifornicaton of Texas continues...”
Happening here in Colorado too. Coastal tapeworms. They’ve destroyed their hosts and they’re searching for new ones.
“Pandemic Exodus” — yeah, right. Nothing else at work here, is there? What a crock of hooey.
Arizona’s Maricopa county comes in at #1 with the highest increase in population.
No surprise, where I am in AZ, all we see is new building and people from CA coming in big numbers.
Lots of Russians and Ukrainians here in the SF Bay Area. One of my daughters was working for a Russian IT company until last year when she jumped to another company. She learned to speak some Russian while working there. After talking with some former co-workers, she says the company is facing difficulties because of the war and sanctions, can't get money through. Some workers jumping ship. And some presumably moving to other states.
This guy has serious money. Sends his 6th grader to a $50k/yr private school. I see a dark limo picking the kid up for school every morning at 6:30. I think he thinks he’s still in Russia and is concerned about a kidnapping and ransom snatch.
