In recent years, the struggle for a higher position in the ranking has been fought between Chicago and Houston. So, according to the latest data, 2017 3 residents left Chicago for 825, and 8 235 people came to Houston.

Nevertheless, Chicago remains in third place in the ranking of densely populated cities. 2,7 million inhabitants live in this city, and Houston is located on the fourth position - 2,3 million people.

According to the census, out of the five largest cities in 2017, population outflows occurred only in Chicago. In fact, Chicago is lagging behind Los Angeles, the second most densely populated city, with more than 1 million inhabitants.

According to analyst Asel Tina, this is due to the economic well-being of the city. Despite the fact that in Chicago, the number of jobs is increasing, the cost of living is also growing.

San Francisco (California) in terms of population took 13 a place among US cities (in 2017, this city was inhabited by 884 363 people, over the past 7 years its number has constantly increased); Washington, DC, took the 20 position (693 972 people, the population of this city has also grown in the last 7 years); Miami (Florida) was on the 43 site (463 347 residents, the population in this city is constantly growing).
