In 2000, the metro was just over 1.5 million, in 2004, that number was 1.8 million. That's about 300,000 thousand in 4 years. We'd be over 2 million come 2010.

Actually that happened because in 2003, the Census Bureau added 4 more counties to our MSA. The numbers were always there, just not a part of the metro population yet so who knows if we will actually "gain" enough new residents to top the 2 million mark by 2010. I think so, though.
