SLIDE 13

Cities with declining population 1960 to 1980

(29 of the 50 largest cities saw a mid-20th Century population decline)

slide-14
SLIDE 14

Of the 29 declining cities, 14 rebounded with an increase in population 1980 to 2013

slide-15
SLIDE 15

Here are the cities that rebounded with an increase in the immigrant population

slide-16
SLIDE 16

Here are the cities that rebounded without an increase in immigrant population

slide-17
SLIDE 17

There are none

slide-18
SLIDE 18

The only cities that rebounded from mid-20th century population loss did so with a net increase in immigrant population.

slide-19
SLIDE 19

This doesn’t prove that immigrants cause growth. It may also be that immigrants are drawn to growth. But it your city’s plan is to grow without immigrants, it is useful to keep in mind that there are no examples of that among major cities in the United States over the past four decades.

improved economic mobility for, enhanced civic participation by, and receiving society openness to,

immigrants.

slide-44

prosperity
