Seattle's Population Surge: A Northwest Phenomenon
Description
Seattles population grew by 1.5% in the past year, adding nearly 11,600 residents, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. This growth rate is slower than the previous year but still places Seattle as the fourth fastest-growing city among the 50 largest in the U.S. Notably, Seattle is the only major city outside the Sunbelt region with a growth rate of 1% or more. In contrast, 15 of the 50 largest cities lost population, including New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago. Celina, Texas, a suburb of Dallas, added the most people numerically, while New York City lost about 12,200 residents. The exact reasons for Seattles growth, such as domestic migration or international migration, are not clear from the data.
