Phoenix No. 1 with 30,000 new neighbors in a year
Phoenix is attracting more new residents than any other city in the nation, according to new U.S. Census Bureau population estimates released today.

Although Phoenix ranked 39th in growth rate, the 29,826 new residents in Arizona's largest city gave it the nation's biggest population increase in terms of raw numbers.

And didn't I read somewhere recently that house prices there have rocketed too? It seems it's where everyone wants to live..... Good for you if you have property there!

I heard that house prices are on fire... or was that just houses

I'm surprised Atlanta isn't in the running, judging by the cars on the road.

Good luck..

Hmm you may be number #1 in that respect, but does your city hold the distinction of being the fattest city in the USA? I think not... :scared:

Unfortunately, I think we won the title again

As for pollution, I have asthma, and know when the ozone alert is on even before I see the news, sad but true

Hey, this is Texas, isnt everything, bigger, from the people to the crime, to the pollution

Plenty of areas on fire around here right now. We have one fire north of us thats now burnt through 170,000 acres. We had smoke drifting over the house last night and we're no where near the fire.
