Phoenix ranks second in U.S. in population growth from 2016 to '17

In Bend's case, the Census Bureau believes Bend has about 9 percent more residents than PSU figured.

The gain here was more than those reported for Irvine, Calif., and Henderson, Nev.; and just behind those recorded for Atlanta, San Diego and Austin, Texas. During the same period, Phoenix's Maricopa County attracted more than 39,000 new residents and San Antonio's Bexar County added 10,000.

Hempstead Town gained the most people among Long Island's 13 towns from 2016 to 2017, according to new U.S. Census Bureau population estimates for cities, towns and villages released Thursday.

Cowtown added 18,664 residents over the year, the fourth most of any city in the country - following close behind Dallas, which added 18,935.

Des Moines' July 2017 population was 217,521, up 0.43 percent from 216,582 in 2016. In every year since the last census count, the bureau has estimated at least some incremental growth for the state.

In Brooklyn, the only New York City borough to lose population previous year, housing investors have driven away first-time buyers by snapping up the remaining affordable housing, according to an April report from the Center for NYC Neighborhoods, a public-private partnership that promotes affordable housing.

Some of the other cities with the largest population gains were Phoenix (24,000); Dallas (18,900); Fort Worth, Texas (18,700); Los Angeles (18,600); Seattle (17,500); and Charlotte, North Carolina (15,600).

While Chicago lost almost 4,000 residents in 2017, that's less than the estimated loss of 4,879 residents the year before that, according to census figures. And the USA population grew by 2.3 million to 326 million, 0.7 percent growth.

In July 2010, Clinton had 26,885 people. The difference between 861,542 in 2016 and 869,666 in 2017 works out to a 0.94 percent increase. Its population continued to increase, but its annual growth rate dropped from 7.8 percent in 2016 to 3.4 percent in 2017. The researchers found Bend had grown by a similar amount - 3.91 percent - but said the city had "only" 86,765 residents on that date. The Chicago metropolitan area, which extends from the city to its suburbs and into parts of IN and Wisconsin, also has lost residents for three consecutive years. When looking at percentage change, 10 of the 15 fastest-growing large cities were located in the South, the bureau said.

Madras grew to an estimated 6,839 residents, while Culver topped the 1,500 mark, with an estimated population of 1,508 residents, and Metolius grew by 22 people, to a population estimate of 773.
