Can someone confirm whether or not that Burgess Hill was the fastest growing town in Europe for a while?

The free state of Kemp Town
Wikipedia says this:

The town gradually enlarged, having its largest population increase between the years of 1951 and 1961, when the population of approximately 7,000 residents almost doubled. This earned Burgess Hill the title of fastest growing town in the south-east. By 1956, the Victoria Industrial Estate was completed, and has since expanded. It now contains the local headquarters of two substantial international companies. In 1986 a smaller industrial estate to in the north of the town developed, known as Sheddingdean Industrial Estate.

At this rate, by 2007, it'll be bigger than Cairo. By 2008, it'll overtake Mexico City and by 2010, Burgess Hill will make Sao Paulo seem like OVINGDEAN.

It will never reach the metropolis status of Pratts Bottom though!!

So what went wrong then? Bugs Hole isn't exactly one of Sussex' more desired residencies now, is it?

It went commuter belt massive in the mid 80s.
