Myersville disputes census count as faulty decrease
Myersville officials challenge a 33.3 percent population drop since 1980, arguing the Census Bureau miscounted housing and people. Mayor Billy Eckstine and clerk Ray Hinkle cite Meadow Ridge and Ashley subdivisions adding about 56 homes, while housing corrections and possible missed movers may explain the discrepancy. The bureau says corrections are limited and the issue may hinge on unrecorded housing or pocketed areas. Federal funding implications underscore the importance of an accurate tally.
