Knoxville, Tennessee was also on the list and ahead of Murfreesboro, ranking in at number 12. The home of UT recorded a 6.5% growth of 25 to 29-year-olds.

The city with the largest growth of residents in the 25 to 29-year-old age bracket was Frisco, Texas. There, the city saw a 19.3% increase of residents who are just under the 30 mark.

The Downturn

Of course, if some cities are seeing a population increase in the 25 to 29-year-olds, obviously other cities are seeing a decrease in the same age group. Mesquite, Texas recorded one of the largest exodus of 25 to 29-year-olds at a decrease of 7.1%.

Fortunately, there were no Tennessee cities on the exit list.
