Plus IMO the data is quite suspect.


Florence took the whole decade between 2010 and 2020 to grow 2%, and now it grows 2% in one year?

al.com writers seem to have a problem with percentages, something we learn in elementary school. Scroll down to the table at the end of this article and you'll see what I mean. They say Athens has a 0.08% gain when it's really 8%. The seem to forget the factor of 100.
