Dallas Population Hole Expands Despite Texas Growth
The city's density (and smell) increasingly resembles "goatse"
Even local news outlets are sounding the alarm about demographic trends that spell doom for one of the largest Texas cities.
The Dallas interior’s population is in a downward spiral, with many leaving the diverse Democrat city for saner pastures.
Via Dallas Morning News:
Last month the U.S. Census delivered a shock to North Texans accustomed to celebrating the region’s growth: Dallas County is now shrinking.
Based on current trends, Dallas County is likely to lose population between 2020 and 2030, making this decade the first 10-year period of demographic decline since the Civil War. If the county stays on this trajectory, North Texas will face economic headwinds similar to those of other metro areas which have suffered population losses – places like Cleveland, Detroit and St. Louis.
This isn’t a new trend for Dallas proper. The city’s population has been declining since 2018. What’s new is that the decline is county-wide. The hole in the donut is growing. Addressing quality-of-life and affordability challenges that are pushing people away should become an urgent priority for North Texas leaders.
Dallas County saw net out-migration rates easily exceeding those experienced by core counties of the New York, Los Angeles and Chicago metros during the year ended in July 2025, according to Census estimates. The county’s population declined slightly over those 12 months. Between 2020 and 2025, the county eked out population growth of 1.9%, a sharp slowdown relative to the rapid expansion of past decades.
But the next several years will likely bring further shrinkage. Natural increase – births minus deaths – will contribute less going forward because of declining birth rates and an aging population. Immigration, which contributed more than ever to population growth from mid-2021 to mid-2025 because of a surge in border crossings during those years, is now adding at most a trickle of people because of the Trump Administration’s immigration crackdown.
What’s more, out-migration to elsewhere in the nation – both to North Texas suburban communities and to other metros across the country – is fully offsetting Dallas County’s small gains from natural increase and immigration. Net domestic out-migration subtracted 1.7% from the county’s population between 2024 and 2025. A net 7.5% of residents, or 197,000 people, moved away during the first half of this decade.
The article’s conclusion is mainly damage control claiming crime is going down, and talk about making Dallas more affordable.
Overall, the situation is far simpler: people don’t like the “blessings” of diversity, inclusion, and anarcho-tyranny. From the Dallas DA coddling criminals, to being a de facto sanctuary city (Paxton got involved at one point), the concrete jungle increasingly resembles a California hellscape nobody wants to call home.
Remember, all this was downstream from politicians who made ending “racism” the highest policy priority. Anything short of anarchy is literally Jim Crow these days.
With ghetto sprawl oozing from Dallas, and H1Bs colonizing once normal suburbs, the average Texan is just getting squeezed into an even tighter “donut.” For those closer to Dallas, I guess they can enjoy the city’s new official delicacy.

The SUPERMAJORITY PLAN TO IMPEACH TRUMP and HIS ADMINISTRATION
It will take 292 house and 67 senate votes to obtain a supermajority vote. This is the key to accomplishing anything in the house or senate. The house and senate will be able to impeach Trump and his administration for their crimes and corruption.
The Democrats are the only ones that will stand against Trump. We have to vote out as many republicans as possible. The republicans have already proven they will stand with Trump no matter what.
EVERYONE IS GOING TO HAVE TO VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS IN THE NOVEMBER 3RD MIDTERM ELECTIONS TO MAKE THIS WORK
Make sure you share this with everyone you know without social media. People without social media are unaware how corrupt and detrimental Trump’s administration really is for our country. The media outlets do not post anything negative about Trump. Some people don’t even know what the midterm elections are or how important they are.
TRUMP, HIS ADMINISTRATION, HIS BILLIONAIRE CHILD SEX TRAFFICKING NETWORK (Elon Musk) , AND THE REPUBLICAN PARTY ARE CORRUPTING THE GOVERNMENT TO COVER THEIR CRIMES .
WE HAVE TO STOP THEM FROM DESTROYING THE COUNTRY
