Oh, THAT kind of elevator.
Is the state or local government in charge of your sense of humor up there?
The way you worded your post was kind of confusing. I see that you were going for the county populations' figures, but it could have been construed that you were focusing on any one particular cities' figures in your county compared to the total population of another state.
See, even the wording of my post was kind of confusing.
The population of South Dakota is misleading too because it isn't spread out at all. About 160K, probably more, of those people live within the city limits of Sioux Falls...which boarders Iowa so that makes it awesome. If I remember right from my time growing up right next to South Dakota the 10 largest cities, and estimated populations are
That would be about 362,000 of the residents of South Dakota. I also know that towns around Sioux Falls like Tea, Brandon, Valley Springs, Canton, Hartford, etc... are starting to grow like freaking crazy because people are moving to Sioux Falls but can't afford to live in the city of Sioux Falls, so they move to the small towns right around it. South Dakota is starting to die outside of the top 4 or 5 cities because everyone is moving out of the small towns, even the Indians are starting too, and moving out of state or to Sioux Falls.

There is a huge advertising campaign in the Twins Cities sponsored by Sioux Falls, to get companies to move there due to tax breaks. Can't go a day without hearing a commercial about Sioux Falls friendly business climate.

I went to Sioux Falls probably 2 or 3 times a month, at least, growing up. I never noticed the town changing or growing because I saw it often enough. However, I was there over the winter for the first time in probably 3 years and I just felt fucking lost. That city has grown so damn much even in three years I can't believe it. I'm sure people were saying the same thing while I was growing up as well, I just didn't notice it.

The business climate is the only friendly climate ya'll have up there.

Somehow I know what you mean without understanding the least bit of what you mean.

We're on the same page without reading the same book.

Only about 90%.
It's hard to guage. My job is not dependant on the goverment per se, but probably 30-50% of my borrowers work either for the governement or for companies that do government work.

I'm not arguing the merits of either side here, but I wonder what this country would look like without big government (both Feds and State) as an employer?
