Population Estimates Statewide & County Current (Census)

About this dataset

The population and housing unit estimates are released on a flow basis throughout each year. Each new series of data (called vintages) incorporates the latest administrative record data, geographic boundaries, and methodology. Therefore, the entire time series of estimates beginning with the date of the most recent decennial census is revised annually, and estimates from different vintages of data may not be consistent across geography and characteristics detail. When multiple vintages of data are available, the most recent vintage is the preferred data. The vintage year (e.g., V2021) refers to the final year of the time series. The reference date for all estimates is July 1, unless otherwise specified. Additional estimates files may also be accessed via the Census Bureau application programming interface (API) . Additional information on the Census Bureau's Population Estimates Program (PEP) is available on the PEP's homepage Census Bureau's Population Estimates Program .
