Digest more
Across the U.S., population growth slowed but was still up 1.8 million or 0.5 percent from 2024 to 2025.
The first snapshot of population data for 2025 confirms some big trends, including a major shift in immigration, but it also uncovered some surprises on the comings and goings between states.
The American Redistricting Project estimated Texas would gain four seats in 2030 based on recent Census data and Florida would gain two seats. On the other end, California is projected to lose 4 seats.
Texas added 390,000 residents in 2025 – more than any other state. But the state grew by 1.2%, which was its slowest growth rate since 2021.
