In 1950, pre-merger Jacksonville was 30 square miles with a population of 204,000. Since then, it's lost roughly 50% of it's population. According to the 2010 Census, that number has dropped to 101,000. However, there's 717 square miles of rural area and growing suburbs that cover up the urban core population loss.
