Abstract:

North Carolina's population is increasing, with 104,961 added in 1999. Most are settling in counties surrounding large metropolitan areas. Over the past ten years the fastest growing counties were Wake and Brunswick, respectively. However, population growth is not reaching everywhere. Twenty-nine rural counties had growth rates from zero to eleven percent over the same ten-year period.
