restaurant in Atlanta. Ms. Patterson, originally from Dallas, and Mr. Ogene, from Nigeria, are part of a

growing trend of young people who are moving to Atlanta.

Some cities will do anything they can think of to keep young people from fleeing to a hipper town.

In Lansing, Mich., partiers can ease from bar to bar on the new Entertainment Express trolley, part of the state

I wonder how many people are moving to Houston from other cities, minus the people moving out? How can I find this information?

You can get this info from the TAMU site for any metro in Texas. It is broken down by county I believe so you can see who went to which county from which county. Google "tamu demographics" without the quotes.

I got here: http://recenter.tamu.edu/data/datapop.html

Where do I go now? Is this the right page? If you don't mine could you show me how to get there?

If you google tamu demographics I think it takes you to this page:

http://recenter.tamu.edu/mreports/

If you click on Houston on the map from there, you'll get the PDF. The direct link is:

http://recenter.tamu.edu/mreports/HoustonSLBay.pdf

Page 11 says that for instance Harris county gets the most poeple from:

1) LA

2) Phoenix

3) San Deigo

4) Chicago

5) OC

The numbers are in the PDF.
