70,000 out of 1.2 million+ isn't exactly a wide gap. The 8,000 residents Houston added following Harvey was well short of what Houston usually produces in a normal year which could have put a huge dent in that 70,000 deficit.
Oh, I thought you meant Houston could have passed DFW as 4th largest MSA. Sorry.
Does anyone know if there's a map or a list that show's all municipalities? I'm using quickfacts to compile data but that only works for places that were over 5,000 people in 2010. There's a few outliers that I need and I'm not sure how to find full data.
I was too young to follow the 2000 census release, but the last two have proven the bureau’s yearly estimates to be pretty inaccurate. Hopefully media and economic organizations start to realize this soon and no longer put their faith in unofficial numbers.

Interesting tidbit...
Chicago CSA/MSA/City proper still reigns #3 across the board.
By my calculations:
Chicago CSA- 9,986,960
Washington DC-Baltimore CSA- 9,973,383
Both CSA regions were under 30k away from cracking the 10 million mark with Chicagoland 13k ahead. Would have been great to see them both jump 10 million this Census. Great to see that Chicago MSA/CSA did not suffer the population loss predicted.
Again this is by my calculations (which I believe I did not miss anything).

On the site below, you can retrieve summary data for all places (cities, towns, etc.) in a state. Sample link - enter a different city in the search box as needed:
Not at all. Probably, still, a lot of undercounting in ACK.
There is a large immigrant population on ACK. They had to build and open a new school in 2017 due to overcrowding and a surging student population.
I will say of all places... Nantucket is one of the most likely for an undercount. Its so seasonal and so much is under the table there-by design. But some of the diversity shows up in the census. Nantucket is 16% Latino and 7% Black (non-mixed race).

They were pretty much dead on with Atlanta's MSA number....they undercounted it by only 2000 people which is amazing for a metro of nearly 6.1 million people.
The estimate can be a problem when the census they base it off of is bad. I think that's the case with NYC where they simply miscounted a lot of housing units in 2010 and now corrected it which is why there's been a huge increase in population.
