Well in all fairness the land area of Raleigh (142 sq. miles) is 4 times larger than Miami's 35 square miles yet it only has around 4000 more people than Miami.
Raleigh did post impressive growth numbers though.
As for miami's numbers I thought the last estimate had it well over 400,000!(Miami,FL: 399,457 (+36,987) These are a lot lower than anticipated but it did grow by over 10% since the last Census. I wonder how many residents who are foreigners didn't even bother to fill out the Census forms.
