DescriptionThe U.S. is more diverse, more urbanized and growing slower overall than in past decades, according to data from the 2020 Census released on Thursday.

Why it matters: The decennial Census provides a snapshot of the ever-changing demographics of the U.S. — and sets up the partisan fight over how states will redistribute electoral power for the next decade through redistricting.

The big picture: Almost all of the country's population growth occurred in large metro areas over the decade. For the first time, all 10 of the largest U.S. cities have more than 1 million people.

And rural areas shrunk as cities grew: More than half of U.S. counties saw their overall populations decline compared to 2010, Marc Perry, a senior demographer at the Census Bureau said during the press conference.

Montana Counties done.

However need someone with access to look at Fallon County. I must have entered in twice as it appears as 50% / 50% for the 2020 census.
