New Orleans, Louisiana Population History | 1840 - 2022 (biggestuscities.com)

Looks like his figures are basically correct, though the peak was in 1960, and population has dropped since until very recently when folks started moving back to an extent.

Maybe they'll all be eight feet underwater in a century.

Or not.  Hey, I can make up things too!

well sea level rise from global warming won't be sudden

no cause for alarmist thinking from the good people that have the right amount of empathy

When you ignore the "how" of the numbers and the how includes most of the people being suddenly forced out, that's misleading. 
The lack of empathy in general on this board is demented.
He stated a fact, if you wanted to explore why it was a fact, you could have easily enough.  Instead you disputed his facts.  And the population declines are largely unrelated to the hurricane.

Maybe YOU should look at the numbers.

Here's a thought, instead of calling him a "dickhead", you could have explored more about why folks have left NO and ADDED some context to his figures.

But no, ...

How many of them volunteered to do so?
You're acting like "ho-hum, the problem is fixing itself." 
As if it wasn't a massive hurricane and years of mismanagement that caused those people to leave.  1400 of those 250K died in the storm and it cost $125 billion in damage.
Are you purposely misleading or just being a dickhead?
Being a dick head is not realizing people made a make shift stop gap measure to deal with natural low lying flood plains below grade. A week before the Hurricane It was on the National Nightly news that a Category 4-5 was imminent and advised all to leave the city/area. Loss of life was preventable many chose to stay......DICKHEAD

Context:  one event was nearly equal to the decades of stagnation.  
I ddn't call him a dickhead, I asked if he was being one.  
.
MrNubbz accuately pointed out that many people were stubborn and didn't leave.  Guess what?  In 80 years, you're going to have tens of millions of people resisting upheaval.  
That'll be fun.

Should we terminate asking questions as well?
How about misunderstanding?
Let's just stop posting altogether.

For someone who contributes NOTHING to this thread, at all, ever, I suggest you consider this option.  You strike me as completely incapable of ANY technical discussion, on ANY topic.  My suggestion would be to stay out of them entirely.

Next week I have a rather technical class.

It's called Coastal Hydraulics. I can report back if there is genuine interest.
