Bloomington-Normal made the list!

By: Diane Benjamin

Not a list they want to be on and one they won’t admit: Cities Americans are abandoning in droves

Obviously Normal is included in the population. Champaign-Urbana is #34, Chicago area is #36, Decatur is #24. California has numerous cities that made the list.

“Migrants” are moving in while citizens are moving out. Replacement theory?

    1. “Thank you” for using the PROPER ID ….”Illegal Aliens”… in your comment which I strongly suspect are the “vast majority” of them!! 🙁 🙁 I know they are where I now live…on the west side of INDY. They are literally EVERYWHERE and…..they act and think like they (now) own the whole area!! 🙁 🙁 🙁 AND, our crime rate (including “road rage”) keeps going higher and higher! 🙁 🙁

      1. If your in the Greater Metro Area, which you are, you should have a firearm. If not, it is time to get one. If you don’t like the prices at Cabella’s, plenty of on-line stores. Ammo.com is the one I use. You’ll get your product within 48 hours after ordering or quicker and everything is reasonbly priced. I’m on the north side but know what you mean. You can thank Hogseth and Mears. They’re here but so far, only setting up food busses, cutting trees and mowing lawns for rich people in Fishers, Carmel, or Westfield. Best of luck.

  1. Fully centralized management state and cities

    Socialist city and management and money flow

    Not freedom- Obama admin radical transformation (social engineering)

    Welcome to selected-rich elites managing and micromanaging the poor and $ flow

    China model and lil Chicago Welcome!

  2. Gee, I thought we had great employment opportunities, a great housing market, and a thriving downtown are to attract people.

    1. The local Elitist Clique was never interested in diversifying the economy. They thought SF would be around forever and keep employing thousands they didn’t need. The downtown cabal were and are just interested in the government grift they could get their hands on. Selfish and egotistical to the core. All a bunch of flaming leftists. All governments lie all the time to the citizenry and waste your money ad nauseum. They lie all the time about what is really going on at Rivian. Why it needs government money to keep the operation going.

  3. What ever became of those upscale apartments in the former State Farm building in the downtown?
    Oh wait was that a pipe dream I had back in 2019? What day is the scheduled grand opening?

    Urban Equity Properties doesn’t even show it under their properties on the website.

    The decline of this area all started back in the late 70’s when Funks Seed Co. closed, followed by Modine, GTE, Eureka Williams, etc.
