Florida still growing but in-migration down 90 percent

The economic recession has cast a shadow over growth in the Sunshine State, according to the latest population projections from the University of Florida (UF), which see Florida’s population increases falling to their lowest level in 60 years as some counties actually shrink. With South Florida counties particularly hard hit, the state is expected to add an average of only 37,000 residents each year between 2008 and 2010, a drop of more than 90 percent from the annual average increase during the housing boom years of 2002 to 2006. The new report shows county population projections from 2008 to 2035.
