Over the past twenty-five years, NumbersUSA has published numerous scientific reports on the causes and consequences of sprawl in the United States. Our most recent study quantifies ecological decline in the Chesapeake Bay and its watershed over the past three decades. Looking forward, we explore a path toward ecological sustainability centered on stabilizing the region’s population through reduced immigration.
