It was windy and cold on the tower but it's nice to get away and I like looking at the rural landscape in with all its browns and grays against the deep blue skies. The Petersburg Ridge reminds me a bit of West Virginia.
Monday December 13, 2021 — NYS Census - PopulationNew York State population continues to decline, according to census data | Newsday
I am going to look at the numbers some more but I'm betting that the main person to blame for the state's population decline is President Trump. New York's historic population gains have always been highly dependent on immigrants coming to New York from foreign countries - be it refugees or those seeking a better life or career or a life with family members.
Americans on the whole don't choose to move to New York - its an expensive, old state with aging infrastructure - but it's often the first stop for immigrants. But with the dynamic economy and diverse culture its a good first stop.
