The Dayton Daily News used U.S. Census bureau data to identify the fastest growing and shrinking communities in our region.

Go here for a full report on how the area’s fastest growing cities and townships are coping with challenges created by that growth.

Warren County’s population grew 53% between 2000 and 2020, according to data from the U.S. Census, far exceeding Greene County (13.6% increase) and Miami County (just over 10%) while Montgomery County showed a nearly 3.9% population decrease.

Below is the data on how much area cities and township grew or shrank in the past 10 and 20 years.
