premise: High Bridge is a census-designated place (CDP) in Snohomish County, Washington, United States. The population was 2,994 at the 2010 census. High Bridge includes the Echo Lake community and the former Echo Lake CDP, which was superseded by the larger High Bridge CDP in 2010.
hypothesis: High Bridge is even smaller in population than it was in 2010.
reason: This may be true but it may not.  It does not tell us how many people are in a census that is more recent than 2010.
