Hmm... I did some research, and it looks like you're right - our population growth is at "replacement levels" right now, so no need to be concerned. I think the concern I hear voiced most often is that well-educated young people aren't having children, and thus not passing their knowledge/interests/genes onto them, so we're going to be missing a large chuck of continuity in our population. Or something. Man, I shouldn't try writing important crap at the end of the work day...
But I did find this super cool map of household growth by state: http://factfinder.census.gov/servlet/ThematicMapFramesetServlet?_bm=y&-geo_id=01000US&-tm_name=ACS_2007_3YR_G00_M00001&-ds_name=ACS_2007_3YR_G00_&-_MapEvent=displayBy&-_dBy=040
