Frankly, I think this list is meaningless. Most of these cities are growing primarily due to growth in the Hispanic community--not because of fleeing Michiganders. Las Vegas has an economy propped-up by high-school dropouts. Charlotte had false prosperity based on rigged banking schemes. And Atlanta is Man's Largest Triumph of Marketing over Substance, and is about to stall out in 12 lanes of clogged traffic. And Riverside?--knock yourself out.

So-called "growth" doesn't mean jack shit.
