U-Haul: CdA #11 in growth cities

Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, ranks No. 11 among the U-Haul Top 25 U.S. Growth Cities for locations with a population of 10,000 to 50,000. U-Haul locations in Coeur d'Alene saw 53 percent of one-way truck rental customers coming into the city as opposed to leaving. Coeur d'Alene had a 16 percent increase in one-way truck arrivals year-over-year, while departures rose 10 percent over the same span. Growth rankings are calculated by the net gain of arriving U-Haul one-way trucks over departing one-way U-Haul trucks for the calendar year. While migration trends do not correlate directly to population or economic growth, U-Haul growth data is an effective gauge of how well cities are attracting and maintaining residents/U-Haul news release.

Question: Are you bothered by the growth of Coeur d'Alene and other North Idaho cities/towns?
