Florida population surging again

The gate is open again and about 700 new Florida residents, from domestic and foreign places, are moving here per day. That's not quite the rate it was when I moved here in 1989. I remember it being estimated that 1,000 people a day were moving here back then. Miami is turning into more of an international city and its prosperity helps us as a region. We just need to find a way to tap into the wealth and resources represented by this growth and find a way to help us out of our problems here in Lake Worth. Click title for link.

People from other countries and other states are pouring into Florida again, a sign of the state's recovery from a long period of economic doldrums and slow growth.
Recently released U.S. Census numbers show that Florida's foreign-born population increased by 140,000 from 2010 through last year. And movement within the United States left Florida with a net gain of 105,000 residents last year and 109,000 in 2012 — 84 percent more than in the previous two years.
The population surge has accelerated this year, according to state estimates, growing at a rate of about 700 new residents a day. That's a healthy increase, though still less than the big migrations during the Sunbelt boom of past decades.
For many job seekers, South Florida has become a hip beachside destination with a nexus of entrepreneurs, investors, a big consumer market and a gateway to Latin America.
