Does population increase in cities help or harm their economy?
In: Economics
as a town grows there is a need for more housing (labor and materials, sales and marketing) and more people means more food and clothes, they have to move around, they want to be entertained. they consult with tax/finance advisors, they need medical treatment.
A town loosing population has financial difficulties of losing supply jobs, certainly few construction jobs, Detroit had to bulldoze whole neighborhoods as they became havens for drug/crime, expenses kept increasing while revenue fell.
