It's a question that is so difficult to answer. It's not like having a cold-you can't simply wake up with an anxiety disorder because you forgot to wash your hands before eating. Anxiety disorders are forged over years of experiences. They have a genetic component, an upbringing component, an environmental component.
The Missouri Office of Administration recently released new population projections for Missouri and its counties. Missouri's population is expected to approach 6.8 million people in 2030, a growth of roughly 1.2 million people from the year 2000, which will represent a 21% increase in the state's population.
The four largest cities in the state are St. Louis (315,685), Kansas City (475,378), Springfield and Columbia (119,108), while the capital itself is Jefferson City. Most of the state's counties have a population density between 1 and 100 people per square mile, although the large urban areas have a population density that reaches over 5,000 people per square mile. Missouri does have a higher rural population than most of the country, with approximately one-third of Missourians living in a rural area. 1  Cities in Missouri. 2  Rank18. 3  2017 Growth Rate 0.33%. 4  Area in Miles (Rank)69,707 (21) 5  State CapitalJefferson City. 6  Statehood Year1821. 7  Red/Blue Red.
