Damn, Wisconsin grew by more residents than Illinois?
It must be the Packers...
You also see Indiana, Kansas, and Minnesota growing faster as well.
Indiana and Minnesota I can understand because they have very large and growing metros (Indianpolis and the Twin Cities), although I'm a bit more baffled by Wisconsin and Kansas. The better explanation, though, is that the bad economy, high taxes, and the pension issue are really holding down Illinois right now.
