Components of Population Change
- Only the great urban regions of Los Angeles and New
York, with
base populations approaching 15 to 20 million people, added more
residents than DFW in the 1990s. (U.S. Census Bureau)
- Record employment expansions drove population growth
in
DFW in the "roaring '90s" when one-half of all new residents
were
either domestic or foreign migrants to the area.
