Guess Which US City Lost Population Since 2000 ... and Why

Out of 25 major cities, Democrat-run Chicago is the only one to have experienced a net population loss compared to the year 2000.

Since 2000, Chicago has lost 231,000 people net despite the fact that the U.S. population has increased from 281.4 million to 341 million.

With 60 million more people, Chicago lost nearly a quarter of a million souls.

How is that even possible?

I suspect that comparisons to 2010 and 2020 will reveal more cities falling into the Chicago doom loop.
