You know, this is rather impressive. I'm kinda surprised how stable North Carolina has been. For an East Coast state of substantial size, only it and Florida seem to be peaking on a total sum (with only a few counties not currently at their peak), although it certainly hasn't had quite the explosive growth Florida had.
And, on the county level map of 2000 to 2010, how well does the population decrease band in the Deep South correlate with the Black Belt?
