Oil boomtown Williston, ND keeps its title as the fastest-growing town with a population over 10,000, growing at a blistering 13.9% from 2012 to 2013. It was closely followed by north Dallas suburb Little Elm, TX (+13.3%), south Denver suburb Lone Tree, CO (+11.5%), Prosper, TX (+10.3%), another north Dallas suburb, and the NYC suburb of Harrison, NJ (+9.3%), near Newark.
Smallish, ruralish, California towns made up 3 of the top 5 10,000+ losers, with northern Caifornia's Susanville (-6.4%) bringing up the rear. Susanville was followed by Avenal, CA (-4.8%) in the Central Valley, Florence, AZ (-4.7%), arguably exurban Phoenix but off the main highway corridors, Detroit enclave Highland Park, MI (-4.3%), and Tehachapi, CA (-4.1%), in Kern County southeast of Bakersfield.
