Rhode Island, Michigan and Maine lost population.
The fastest-growing of all counties without regard to population was one of the smallest, Loving County, Texas, whose population grew from 82 to 94. It's now larger than Kalawao County, Hawaii, population 90 lepers and associates.
The biggest loser was Blaine County, Oklahoma, west northwest of Oklahoma City. It lost 18.6% of its population to fall below 10,000. I'm not sure why. Most of whatever happened happened in between the 2010 census and the 2010 census estimate.
Of counties with a 2011 population over 10,000, the biggest loser was Coosa County, Alabama, north of Montgomery (-7.1%), followed by Wilkes County, Georgia (-3.6%) in between Athens and Augusta, and Bullock County, Alabama (-3.4%), southeast of Montgomery.
