Good, but I'm not sure that most of Texas falls into Greater Appalachia.I like this map:
The South is out pacing all other regions ...

I've not figured out what the attraction for South Carolina is. Away from the coastline, it's pretty much like any other Southern state, or actually all other states outside large cities.
Estimated Shares of the Net Growth
• Hispanic (any race): 55–65% — Primary driver. High-fertility rates and in-migration to growing Southern metros/suburbs (especially Texas, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina).
• Non-Hispanic Black: 20–25% — Solid contribution reflecting the South’s large baseline Black population and some regional migration/births.
• Non-Hispanic White: 5–10% (or near-neutral) — Minimal positive contribution at best; in-migration helped but was offset by lower birth rates and out-migration in some areas.
• Non-Hispanic Asian + Multiracial/Other: 10–15% — Growing via migration and mixed identification.
That’s a lotta demorat voters ….the plan is working

Glad for them. I have had family members and a friend that have move out of Denver due to disgust with the liberal voting and with the very high crime. Both had their houses broke into. The family members lived in a very affluent neighborhood. The friend lived in what used to be a nice neighborhood.
I live in Denver (for over 20 years), and you're correct. Colorado is doing just fine, other than running out of water. There's outmigration (although pretty light) due to cost of living. If anyone thinks that people are leaving because of politics in Denver, that just means they're not familiar with the concept of suburbs. JeffCo, Douglas and Weld Counties are incredibly conservative.
It's funny to me that people who live in a state notorious for a lack of jobs/industry/infrastructure look askance at a state that has worked for 40 years to diversify its economy and capitalize on its natural strengths.
If you don't live in a state, it would be hard to have an objective opinion. Of course, that's just my opinion.
This is such a patently ridiculous thing to say. I doubt you've spent a moment in Colorado. My neighbors are probably 1/3 republican, democrat and other and I live in the city.
There are much tougher rednecks all over the West Slope than anybody you've got in your family, I guarantee it. Springs, Greeley, Grand Junction, Glenwood, Montrose, Gunnison are all dark red.
I'm sorry you had to smell weed on your ride from the airport to the Aurora Convention Center.
