[PRCo] Regional population numbers

[John Swindler]

That's why "Steeler Nation" is world-wide.
 
And nothing sad about places losing population.  Helps support light rail development in other places, such as Dallas, Phoenix and Portland.  
 
People have been leaving Pittsburgh area for couple hundred years.  What was the reason around 1810??  1870??  1945??

> Sad thing is that most of the places the trolleys ran (or even run) have lost population … even Mount Lebanon, Dormont, Castle Shannon and Bethel Park.    Even Upper St. Clair Township.    I guess a lot of the kids have moved to Dallas, Phoenix of Portland in search of work.
