The true number of Americans who fled Democrat-led, crime-ridden cities has been revealed in official census figures, with New York seeing the biggest exodus.
Violence, homelessness, coronavirus restrictions and high taxes sparked an unprecedented shift in populations across the country over the last two years.
NYC saw the largest population drop with an incredible 404,750 people fleeing the Big Apple between 2020 and 2022, the US Census Bureau revealed on Thursday. More than 75,000 Chicagoans left the Windy City, while 74,000 ditched LA.

Which means that NYC has plenty of room for new migrants.
Yet New York politicians complain about illegal alien invaders in their “Sanctuary City” that has vacancies for the 404,750 who left.
And every damned one of them would have fled to a red state, where they will still vote Democrat.
It is troubling to consider the prospect of expatriates from progressive states influencing the electoral outcomes of more conservative ones.
On the other hand, the potential concurrent loss of congressional representation will result in fewer electoral votes, which may result in a change for the better in national elections.
And the cities will be left with increased crime. It will be blamed on “white flight,” or some other such thing.
404(000) not found. That’s funny.
I know where they can get 700,000 replacements if they are willing to send a crapload of buses to the west Texas town of El Paso.
Kurt Schlichter the other day said that the majority of those fleeing blue states are more conservative than average, many more conservative than the average of the state they are moving to. Massholes moving to Cow Hampshire are more conservative, on average, than the people of the Granite State.
Since the Fascist general government of the New York City People’s Republic wants to restrict red meat, I am thinking some of those high end steak houses will move outside the city limits. I wonder when the city will decide they want to build an East German style mined wall to keep the few remaining citizens in...
It depends, we in AZ have a lot of CA refugees. Some are very conservative, some are liberal.
Too many of these fleeing are going to ruin the cities and states they escaped to. They are infected by Democratic mind viruses.
Probably any day now.
Raise taxes on the rest to make up for the shortfall./s I wonder what the demographics of the leavers are.
As they spread out, latching onto new hosts, spreading the venom of their liberal ideology.
Hopefully, but the past is a grim indicator, considering what happened to Nevada, Oregon, Washington, New Mexico, Arizona and Colorado.
It’s probably best described as “spreading the leftist virus”...
“I read these comments & have to laugh. All you people in red states have DeSATIS & trump as your choices It shows how brainwashed you have become, how you have tunnel vision as to what’s going on in your own states Republicans are using the illegals as weapons....this is nothing new at the border, been going on for yrs. & yet your convinced this is a new problem. I live in a blue state where we had the choice to vote on abortions, the rest of you are stuck with decisions made for you by politicians. People & not all but you can pick a Republican out within minutes, they are rude, think their way is the only way, gun toting idiots who think guns are their prized possession, they always have to be right So good luck with the 2 worst people who are running for Pres. Is this really the best you got,shows your mentality Be prepared “THE BLUE WAVE IS COMING” and AMERICA can get back to what we do best, govern for the people & not just for the rich”
This is the kind of thinking we’re up against.
Plus 403,000 will still vote Dem in NYC
