I believe the sprawl outside of Chicago lost residents over that period and the sprawl outside Nashville is responsible for most of the area's growth. It certainly tracks that people whose main priority is to avoid paying taxes and fees would move someplace without sidewalks.

Chicago MSA grew by 150,000+ people. The city grew by about 51,000 people. The "sprawl" outside of the city didn't lose population. It gained around 100K people.
