If you heard chants of "We're No. 81! We're No. 81!" ringing through Madison on Wednesday, they might have been a reference to the Census Bureau's latest ranking of the United States' biggest cities....
Sean Robbins, executive vice president of the regional economic development group Thrive said "It's critical that the urban core of the greater Madison region continues to attract new residents. Along with an increasing property tax base, it's this kind of growth that makes possible a diverse labor pool, quality schools, parks for our kids and city services --all of which build up towards a competitive regional economy."
