Recent Census Estimates show the metro area growing nicely. I didn't run the statistics, but I believe this indicates the growth rate is picking up.

These are county estimates, more detailed estimates will be out in May.

4. Creek: +946
5. Okmulgee: +284
6. Pawnee: +206

The slowing rate is not Tulsa, nationally immigration is down, deportations, forced and voluntary, are up and births are way down. This has massive and bad implications if it continues and our population ages. Thanks Trump.
