"Increasingly large" is correct. Adverbs modify/describe adjectives as well as verbs. In this case, it is to say the number of people is already large, but is still increasing over time.

Concerned means worried about their security to be compromised, threatened, endangered, jeopardized or undermined.
About increasingly, I've seen that in some sentences but I can't explain it. Sorry
