PEOPLE & SOCIETY • STATE MIGRATION
Charlotte, North Carolina just added more people in a year than any city in America. The country’s 14th largest city. New York City lost more than any city in America. Two years ago NYC gained 163,000 people on the back of migrant arrivals. Then immigration policy tightened, the surge stopped... and you can see exactly where those people decided to go. The story of where Americans live is being rewritten one U-Haul at a time.
❝
Charlotte just out-grew Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island combined... with the population of a small town.
