Boomburb
''Boomburb'' is a neologism for a large, rapidly growing city that remains essentially suburban in character even as it reaches populations more typical of urban core cities. Like ''edge city'', an older and more widely accepted term, it describes a relatively recent phenomenon in North America.
==Definition==
Boomburbs are defined as incorporated places in top 50 Metropolitan areas in the United States having more than 100,000 residents that are not the core cities in their metropolitan areas and have maintained double-digit rates of population growth (10% or more) over consecutive censuses between 1970
and 2000.〔Lang, Robert E. and Arthur C. Nelson. "The Boomburb Downtown". p.2. Alexandria, Virginia: Metropolitan Institute at Virginia Tech.〕
As of the 2000 Census, the United States contained 54 boomburbs, which accounted for about half of the 1990s growth in cities with between 100,000 and 500,000 residents.〔"The Boomburb Downtown". p.3.〕
