New Census estimates show Cary was the second fastest growing municipality with over 100,000 residents last year. Raleigh was 14th, Durham 21st, and Charlotte 28th.

Over the decade, growth hasn’t been as fast. Cary ranks 19th, Raleigh 20th, Durham 44th, and Charlotte 38th

This should still provide greater sense of the population shift in the state. And yet income growth has lagged for the state.
