a lot of the California counties don't show up on the percentage growth rate

because a lot of them already have so many people
因为很多县的人口基数本来就很大了
if you look at it in absolute number so we would have counties like San Bernardino would be in the fastest growing counties
如果只看人口增长的绝对人数 那么想圣贝纳迪诺这样的县 应该算是人口增长最快的县了
in just the terms of how many people they've added

you can see Detroit huge decline
