Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story:
- By studying population trends and forecasting models, researchers have come to believe that nearly 15,000 U.S. cities will face noticeable depopulation by 2100.
- Populated areas of the cities in question could experience a decline of up to 44 percent.
- Projections call for the biggest drops in city populations to occur in the Northeast and Midwest.
That’s a very unconventional use of the word “city”.
Yeah, I don’t know what defines a city. I’m guessing each state has it’s own definition based on population.
I’d personally call less than 1,000 a village.
Varies by jurisdiction.
In the US a lot of places are defined by the structure of the government rather than anything to do with their size.
I went to school in a “city” of less than 1k people.
The only address that was actually in the “city” was the post office.
