Forbes: Denver on list of 10 cities where Americans are relocating

Denver is one of 10 U.S. cities on a new Forbes magazine list of cities where Americans are relocating.

Denver ranked No. 10 on the list.

“Unemployment is on the rise, credit is tight, and consumers aren’t spending — which means they aren’t picking up and moving much either. Very few places in America saw significant population growth in 2008,” Forbes said in its report.

“But the buzzing metropolitan area of Denver bucked that trend,” Forbes added. “Its population increased by 2.17 percent in 2008. In 2007, it increased by 2.09 percent. In 2008, Denver was the 10th-fastest growing metro area in the U.S.”

The Forbes report notes that Denver was listed as the most popular city in America in an October 2008 survey by the Pew Research Center, “so it’s no surprise that this metro area still attracts newcomers.”

It also cites lower unemployment rates in Denver than the national average.
