MANATEE - Manatee County is growing the most in its unincorporated areas, which are adding people at a rate 2½ times faster than its cities and towns, according to population estimates the U.S. Census Bureau released today.
While the county's population has surged by more than 32,000 people since 2000, the vast majority of them - nearly 28,000 - didn't call Bradenton, Palmetto or the island cities of Anna Maria, Bradenton Beach, Holmes Beach and Longboat Key their new home, census figures show.
Those cities' combined populations grew by 5.7 percent during the four-year period, well below the 14.6 percent gain in unincorporated areas such as Lakewood Ranch and Parrish.
