Yikes, based on this chart presented by krazeeboi (from the census bureau of course) and the actual numbers for 2005, Georgia's population will go from 9,072,576 to only 9,200,000. Let me get this right...so Georgia's population will only grow by 127,424 in 10 years. There is no way that could be right. More people than that will move into Gwinnett County alone in 10 years. Krazeeboi that was a bad chart they presented you.

^ Because those are population projections starting in 1995. They have 2005 wrong by 659,576 people.

Rather conservative numbers:

Virginia, 8.5 million

West Virginia, 2 million

North Carolina, 10 million

South Carolina, 5 million

Georgia, 10.5 million

Florida, 23 million

Kentucky, 4.5 million

Tennessee, 6.5 million

Alabama, 4.5 million

Mississippi, 3 million

Louisiana, 4.5 million

Arkansas, 3 million

Oklahoma, 3.5 million

Texas, 27 million

Yes...and Florida will resemble Japan in density with those figures

Florida and Texas will be the boomers but I have to wonder if the rise in home prices will start to slow growth in Florida soon. I think South Florida and TB will slow some and places like Lakeland, Daytona/Ormond, Tallahassee, and Jacksonville will take up the slack but prices everwhere will grow. I think Orlando and Southwest FL will continue to boom regardless, as will Palm Beach Co.

Texas has miles and miles of real estate and the most affordable prices of any major metro areas. I think this will fuel even more growth in DFW, Houston, San Antonio and Austin. Also, immigration from Latin America will fuel a lot of the growth there as it should continue to do in Florida.
