Eight tables are presented below providing annual data for each component county of the metro and metro summary. The tables provide data on the total population, births, deaths, natural change (births less deaths), international migration, domestic migration and net migration.

From 2010 to 2015 (7/1/2010-6/30/2015), natural change (3,401) was not enough to offset outbound net migration (-5,724); outbound net migration has been the primary contributing factor for the total metro population change.
