Some Red State/Blue State Indicia

Btw Jacksonville is the largest American city that currently has an (R) mayor. They have a mayoral election in 2 weeks. Stay tuned.
 
Here are the top 10 U.S. states with the highest percentage population growth between 2010 and 2020, based on data from the United States Census Bureau:

Utah - 18.4%
Idaho - 17.3%
Texas - 15.9%
North Dakota - 15.8%
Nevada - 15.0%
Colorado - 14.8%
Arizona - 14.8%
Florida - 14.6%
Washington - 14.3%
South Carolina - 11.9%


I don't blame the lecturing buffoon for wanting to pivot to counties now... give it time, and liberal policies that have destroyed blue cities in blue states will one day destroy blue cities in red staters, and a similar migration will occur

for now, the red states are happy to offer safe haven to the commies fleeing their ****holes

Why is Austin growing faster than San Francisco?

There are a number of reasons why Austin is growing so much faster than San Francisco.

Cost of living: Austin is significantly cheaper to live in than San Francisco. The median home price in Austin is $425,000, while the median home price in San Francisco is $1.4 million. This makes Austin more affordable for young professionals and families.
Job market: Austin is a major tech hub, and the job market is booming. In 2022, Austin added more jobs than any other city in the United States. This is attracting young professionals from all over the country.
Culture: Austin has a vibrant and diverse culture. The city is known for its live music scene, its food scene, and its outdoor activities. This makes it a desirable place to live for people of all ages.

San Francisco is still a great city, but it is facing some challenges. The cost of living is very high, and the housing market is very competitive. The city is also dealing with a number of homeless issues. Austin is a more affordable and affordable alternative for many people.
 
the damning point of the blue vs red is that the blue states were once magnificent... truly amazing... and wealthy beyond measure

the fact that we are now comparing them to timbucktoo Mississippi is not a dunk on Mississippi

Sadly the gap on indicia such as life expectancy keeps getting wider.

And it’s very interesting data that reveals a lot. However, I do think it skirts around intended point that certain cities dealing with significant crime and homeless issues are hemorrhaging population. Ymmv

Crime and homelessness are tough problems for LA, SF and NY. I thing the population losses have more to do with changes in work/housing/educational choices associated with covid.
 
Don't worry new yorkers!

Bard assures me that I am in more danger walking the streets of Alabama!

Sure. Here is a side-by-side comparison of homicides in Oklahoma and New York City, adjusted per capita:

Year Oklahoma New York City

As you can see, the homicide rate in Oklahoma has been consistently higher than the homicide rate in New York City over the past 20 years. In 2021, the homicide rate in Oklahoma was 5.8 per 100,000 people, while the homicide rate in New York City was 1.9 per 100,000 people.

Why has the homicide rate dropped in Oklahoma and New York. I want to draw my own correlation.

Year Oklahoma New York
2010 16.7 7.2
2011 17.0 7.1
2012 17.3 7.0
2013 17.6 6.9
2014 17.9 6.8
2015 18.2 6.7
2016 18.5 6.6
2017 18.8 6.5
2018 19.1 6.4
2019 19.4 6.3
2020 19.7 6.2
2021 20.0 6.1

As you can see, the number of guns per capita in Oklahoma has been increasing steadily over the past decade, while the number of guns per capita in New York has been decreasing steadily over the same period. This is likely due to a number of factors, including differences in gun laws and culture between the two states.

In Oklahoma, there are relatively few restrictions on gun ownership. For example, there is no permit required to purchase a gun, and there is no waiting period. This makes it relatively easy for people to obtain guns in Oklahoma.

In New York, on the other hand, there are a number of restrictions on gun ownership. For example, a permit is required to purchase a gun, and there is a waiting period. This makes it more difficult for people to obtain guns in New York.

In addition to these legal differences, there are also cultural differences between Oklahoma and New York that may contribute to the difference in gun ownership rates. For example, Oklahoma is a more rural state, and people in rural areas are more likely to own guns for hunting and self-defense. New York, on the other hand, is a more urban state, and people in urban areas are less likely to own guns.
 
I personally lean quite left on gun control much to the chagrin of my family and to the disdain of my conservative brethren.

But interesting to see that people are murdering each other quite less despite the number of guns rising.

C(r)e(d)it to leaders of both states.
