Very confused.

From this article

How do I reconcile "Toronto was the fastest-growing metropolitan area in Canada and the U.S. for the second consecutive year and saw an estimated population increase of nearly 269,000 people from July 2023 to July 2024, according to data from Statistics Canada and the U.S. Census Bureau."

with

"Domestically, though, more people are still moving away from the Toronto area than to it".

If more people leave than arrive, shouldn't Toronto be shrinking?

Prolly the issue is that "Toronto" and "Toronto area" are not the same place. The "Toronto area" contains "Toronto", but "Toronto" is only part of the "Toronto area". Someone can move out of "Toronto" and stop in the "Toronto area" and satisfy all conditions of the collection of statements above.
