est 2009 census

City of Houston: 2.3 million

Houston and metropolitan areas: 5.9 million

City of Chicago: 2.8 million

Chicago and metropolitan areas: 9.7 million

Houston is one of (if not the) fastest growing large city from 1970 until today. The city of Houston population will likely surpass the city of Chicago in the next 50 years. Chicago will remain a larger metroplex very far into the future.

Provided the explosive population growth continues for Houston and the stagnent to negative population growth within the city of Chicago, it looks like between 2020 and 2025, the city of Houston will surpass Chicago in population (only within the city limits).
