People Leaving Cleveland and other cities

[buckeyegrad]

US Census Bureau released populationion change numbers for the largest US cities yesterday. I'm guessing it doesn't surprise anyone to see Cleveland and Detroit at the top of the list for losers. I have to admit, I was suprised to see Cinncinnati at 2nd though....I guess everyone is moving to Clermont and Warren Counties.

Pittsburgh city, Pennsylvania -12,113 -3.6

One guess....

I heard a comedian do a funny bit about Dayton Ohio one time. He was kind of ripping on the city, and the way they claim the wright brothers etc. He said "Do you know why the Wright Bros. invented the airplane in the first place?"


To get the Fuck out of Dayton!

I thought it was pretty funny.

It's surprising to see San Francisco on that list, losing 32,503 people.

Columbus was the only big city in Ohio to gain population since 2000.

Columbus city, Ohio +17,889 2.5

I am quite sure that this # would be much higher if they added all the illegals.

Not really, If you could sell your house for 500,000 that you bought 10 years ago for 100,000, you'd move the hell out too.

I am moving out of Pittsburgh in November, so I'll add to that stat.

Please say you are not moving to Columbus...

care to take this shitty sports teams with you? I'm out next year too.

Gee - I could think of another reason.....

Do you have your "Open Tent" sign out yet?

My brother lives in Cleveland and is always complaining about how high the taxes are, how bad the schools are, and more. He then instantly follows it by asking when I am moving there and he is dead serious.

I see the big easy is in the top 10. The MF'ers are all moving over here where I live. That includes my in-laws. Traffic is a mess and the schools are packed. They end up destroying everything they were looking for.

San Fran is just too freaking expensive. CA does have a lot of folks that sell and move to OR or AZ. My old man lives in Tucson and has been bitching about that for years.
