Texas, North Carolina and Colorado completed the top five, each with a growth rate of 2.0 percent. Nevada, which had been among the four fastest-growing states each of the last 24 years, grew 1.8 percent and ranked eighth over the most recent period.</p> <p>Texas gained more people than any other state between July 1, 2007, and July 1, 2008 (484,000), followed by California (379,000), North Carolina (181,000), Georgia (162,000) and Arizona (147,000).</p> <p>The only two states to lose population were Michigan and Rhode Island.

Rounding out the top five states were Texas (24.3 million), New York (19.5 million), Florida (18.3 million) and Illinois (12.9 million).</p> <p>Other highlights:</p> <ul> <li>On the whole, the Northeastern states have gained population at an increasing rate since 2005, a turnaround from their declining growth rates from 2000 to 2005.</li> <li>Six of the 10 fastest-growing states from 2007 to 2008 were Rocky Mountain states: Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, Utah and Wyoming. Three others lined the South Atlantic coast: Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina.</li> <li>The West was the fastest-growing region (1.4 percent) between 2007 and 2008, but the South added the highest number of people over the period (1.4 million).</li> <li>The estimated July 1, 2008, population for Puerto Rico was 4 million, up by 0.3 percent (13,000) from one year earlier.</li> </ul> </div> <div class="pr"> <table border="0" width="100%"> <tbody> <tr> <td colspan="2"> <div><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Top 10 Fastest-Growing</span></strong></div> </td> <td></td> <td> <div><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Top 10 Numeric Gainers</span></strong></div> </td> <td></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="220"><strong>State</strong></td> <td width="89"> <div><strong>Percent<br /> Change</strong></div> </td> <td width="41"></td> <td width="231"><strong>State</strong></td> <td width="86"> <div><strong>Change</strong></div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><strong>1.
