To do this, FinanceBuzz analysts looked at cities that had populations of 200,000 or more as of 2019 and then weighed a variety of factors, including population growth\/decline, unemployment, income, percentage of vacant homes, and number of residents with collections debt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All-in-all, 117 U.S. cities were ranked on a 100-point scale, with \u201chigh\u201d scores meaning a greater scale of decline. These are the top 10 fastest-declining in Texas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For more detailed information on these cities\u2019 stats, visit FinanceBuzz<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s important to note that while these are Texas\u2019 top 10 declining cities, none of the above were in the top 10 of the full list. Corpus Christi, which is listed first above, is actually the U.S.\u2019 12th fastest declining city overall. It is, however, the first Texas city to appear on the list from the top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As far as fastest-declining cities go, the majority of FinanceBuzz\u2019s top 10 is dominated by many of the U.S.\u2019 biggest cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There will be few surprised to learn that San Francisco ranked no. 1, with a 2019-22 population change of -8.29% and a home value growth rate that\u2019s nearly 73% slower than the national average. The City by the Bay received a total Decline Score of 73.9 (the highest) and is followed by New Orleans, New York City, Boston and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The indicated decline of the above Texas cities shouldn\u2019t imply there aren\u2019t many Lone Star State metros thriving. In fact, a Texas city was named the no. 1 fastest-rising overall by FinanceBuzz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Frisco, located outside Dallas, is noted for its housing demand and increased population. According to the list, the north Texas city had a 9.5% population increase since 2019 with only a small portion (3.5%) of existing homes remaining vacant. Frisco was also noted by financial tech company SmartAsset<\/a> in a recent list of fastest-growing U.S. cities<\/a> with populations over 100,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Over the five-year period SmartAsset analyzed, Frisco saw a population growth of 23.9% and was ranked eighth nationwide.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" https:\/\/www.everythinglubbock.com\/news\/state-regional\/these-are-the-10-fastest-declining-texas-cities-analysis-shows\/ A recent analysis by data outlet FinanceBuzz aimed to track the growth (or decline) of several U.S. metros from 2019 through the end of 2022.
