Study: Seattle is the fastest growing city in the U.S.

Seattle was one of the fastest growing cities this past decade, and from 2013 to 2018, it was the fastest growing large city in the U.S., according to a recent study.

The study was an analysis by Car Insurance Companies of data recently released by the U.S. Census Bureau that showed recent gains in population across certain cities, but an overall decline in the country's population growth — the study said it was an 80-year low. It looked at population data from 2013 to 2018 to find growth rates, total population growth and the rate of college-educated residents.

Seattle had stretched by 90,731 people in that five-year span. But when the data gets broken down, it tells a story that may combat conventional wisdom.

Despite a booming tech industry and a reputation for drawing millennials, the fastest growing age group was ages 65 to 74, the study said. The only city in the top 10 with a fastest growing age group lower than 50 was Tampa at ages 25 to 34.
