replies: text: I have tagged this section of the article with the Update template.  The populations were substantially changed by the 2005 hurricane season, and a year later are nowhere near their pre-hurricane levels.  New Orleans has been reduced by half and Baton Rouge doubled;  are there any scientific studies showing where displaced people from New Orleans have settled?  I know we have many now in Texas, but I have no clue what the numbers are.  Beaumont seems to be experiencing an economic boom even though many people and businesses left forever with Rita.  Many Katrina people however stayed.  It is fascinating but we need new numbers.  Laura1822 22:24, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Metropolitan areas

message: The Southwest and West articles both have Texas striped, while the South article has Texas solid in all three maps. On the Southern talk page, we have discussed this for a long time, and it is agreed that Texas is a Southern state. I, as a Texan, am offended by this article's statement that Texas is not part of the South. If you have any objections, discuss them on the Southern talk page. --Stallions2010 01:41, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Texas is a Southern state

message: Should the Mobile and Pensacola metropolitan areas be merged into one, for the purposes of the table provided in this article?  As a former resident of the Mobile area, I can tell you that it is generally accepted in both markets that the two are very similiar and identifiable with each other.  Both markets share many resources, particularly in regard to the media, as the radio and television stations of both markets can be clearly heard/viewed in both markets and they target both markets.
If merged, the combined population would be 1,045,381.  This would make it the 4th largest metro in the table. --Contributions/74.95.135.46 (talk) 16:34, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I do agree about most of the points that you raise.  They both share critical resources, media, and culture.  However, we base metropolitan listing on the listings given by the census.  Presenting the two metros as one would be factually inaccurate and would be misleading to readers.  But, just wait a few census' eventually, they probably will be combined into one. AlaGuy (talk) 06:24, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Metropolitan area merging

message: The article Gulf South appears to be an orphan stub that clearly needs to be merged with this article. The merge proposal has been there for nearly a year with no discussion.
Since I haven't been involved with either of these I hesitate to do it myself but I wanted to propose that somebody go ahead and do this (unless there is some other reason someone knows of not to).
