Population Change, , as a Percent of Change
Summary Slower overall population growth in Maryland in last three years due to increasing net out migration Increasing out migration linked to decreasing relative economic vitality and higher housing prices Slower growth more apparent in central Maryland
Summary (cont.) Outlying areas with relatively lower housing prices have been the recipient of some of the displaced growth from central Maryland This has led to these outlying areas accounting for a greater share of statewide growth and in some cases to have surpassed the previous decade’s total growth
