California has the largest population in the United States, followed by Texas, Florida, New York, and Pennsylvania. This population of the United States is unevenly distributed across all states and territories. The most populous states are California, Texas, and Florida, while the least populous states are Vermont and Wyoming. The population statistics of the United States Census Bureau include the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the five US territories, including Puerto Rico.
The most densely populated state is New Jersey, followed by Puerto Rico (not a state) and Rhode Island. California is the most populous US state at 37.25 million, followed by Texas, at 29.14 million, the second largest state in the USA, Florida at 21.53 million and New York at 20 million. With growth in natural births and immigration (both at home and abroad) and the decline due to deaths and emigration, the state’s population is constantly changing. It makes sense that all of the 10 most populated states have a border that meets a body of water, including lakes and oceans.
Based on the ten-year census, each state is assigned a portion of the 435 permanent seats in the United States House of Representatives, with each state being guaranteed at least one. The statistics from World Population Review show that Cali Texas is way ahead, with almost 10 million more people. The states and territories included in the United States Census Bureau statistics for the United States (population, ethnicity, religion, and most other categories) include the 50 states and the District of Columbia (Washington, D.). The population density of an area is the average measure of the number of people occupying a square unit of that area.
To see how your state is performing, we’ve created a table of the fifty states in order of their most recent population estimates. This is important for citizens of different states, as the population determines how much representation a state gets in the federal government (and thus affects the funding of programs and initiatives). New Jersey, on the other hand, is the 46th smallest state by country size, but it also ranks 11th by population. The states and territories included in the US states by population for the United States include Washington DC’s recent accession from the 51st state.
Other top states with a population of over 10 million are Pennsylvania with 13 million and Illinois with 12.8 million, Ohio with 11.79 million, Georgia with 10.71 million, North Carolina with 10.43 million, and Michigan with 10 million.
