The West's Future Population?

[KCghettoboi]

In 50 years will the west population be as large as the east's? I think the west's cities are growing so fast is because they have room to grow(which i think includes KC). Look at Las Vegas it's growing at an unreal rate, the fastest in the nation. I think the only thing that could slow the groth is lack of water.

You are right in every aspect.

They have plenty of room to create suburban sprawl, out populate the east and then die of dehydration.

I think that it will be nice to have a balance of cities rather than one part of the country having most of the population.

From what I've seen Cali as far as SoCal has the water because they are robbing Peter AND Paul (in this case Zona and Nevada) to get it, seems when they put in the Hoover Dam and Boulder Dam and all they committed something like 70 or 80% of the energy and water to SoCal (cause Zona and Nevada were more rural then urban at the time). monsoon is right, if you run some searches online there are waterWARS going on in the SW and some parts of the Central West. There simply isn't the supply like there is in the Ohio Valley or on the East Coast or in the Mississippi Valley.
