NYC’s population is still below pre pandemic levels.
. Exorbitant rent prices there are due to multiple factors, but population increase is not one of them: https://www.thecity.nyc/2023/8/4/23819420/why-is-nyc-rent-so....

Yes but this is not really exodus. What happened at the onset of COVID was that the domestic migration out of coastal megacities continued apace, and the international migration into coastal cities abruptly stopped. You have to look at both flows to understand the population process.
