Population of the Principal Cities of Ohio, 1810-1900.

All of the above named cities have received marked accessions to their population during the last ten years, those having increased by the largest percentage being Toledo, 61.9 per cent; Akron, 54.8 per cent; Cleveland, 46.1 per cent; and Columbus, 42.4 per cent. Largest numerical gains during the decade are found in Cleveland, Toledo, and Columbus. With a single exception in one decade each of these cities has increased in population steadily, but the rate of growth has been irregular and has shown no uniform trend of change. For Cincinnati, Cleveland, and Springfield, however, that rate since 1870 has steadily declined, a change in harmony with the usual tendency of large urban centers.
