Only 58 years ago, when the population of St. Louis was 310,864, that of Chicago was 298,977. Even as late as 1880, Chicago's population was but half a million. Today the city of Chicago houses more than three million people, and well in excess of another mil-. lion live within the metropolitan area. No modern metropolitan center has ever grown so large in sa short a civic lifetime. Every year, ^Metropolitan Chicago increases its population by 125,000, or more than the entire population of Albany, New York! Who can say what our population will: be in ten years? In twenty? Outlying Communities Now. ^Growing at a Rate Three Times as Rapid as Chicago The Chicago Aa*ociatkm ot Commerce lists 160 citics and towns within 35 miles of Chicago Of this number. 44 have a population a! $.000 or more The following population figures, covering only ' i--iiiiiiiiliin of over 5.000 population, other than Chicago, show W what an --wwiithing pace the metropolitan area is growinf.
