Why is this important?
The population size of a region is used to describe and understand populations and is important in planning for the future of a community, particularly for schools, community centers, health care, and child care. Total population figures allow professionals in all fields to model fluctuations of a population over time and determine stability, variation, capacity to adapt to environmental changes, affects of social determinants of health, and more that affect the well-being of that given population.

Technical note: The Census Bureau releases new population and housing unit estimates 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. The current vintage year (V2023) consists of data for 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023.
