Cities Omaha Will Surpass/Be Surpassed By In 2030

Post by CDixon »

So with all the census talk, and Nebraska nearly being surpassed by Idaho (which will happen by 2030), how are we thinking Omaha will be ranking amongst other cities in the U.S. by 2030?

Metro I think we pass Honolulu and Rochester NY. Longer term should pass Hartford CT and Buffalo, but not by 2030. Could get passed by Greenville SC and Knoxville TN though so decent chance to still be 56th at the end of the decade.

This isn't considering new counties being added to MSAs so that could obviously impact things.
