Not 10% population increase in ten years, it was 10% population increase in 3 years. (An increase in immigration rate of 4x over those three years compared to the previous 20 years - makes the USA's southern border influx look minor in comparison)

And the population increase wasn't spread evenly across the country...





I was wrong about the size of the increase - after checking the numbers again, the increase seems to be about 80-100% increase in immigration since the pandemic started (an exception is the first year of the pandemic where it dropped below previous year levels).
