Thank you for joining us at the 2026 Texas Demographic Conference in Austin! We appreciate your participation and are excited to share that all presentations and session recordings are now available for you to explore.
We are pleased to announce the release of the final Vintage 2024 Population Estimates for Texas. Our population estimates include data for counties and places for July 1 of each year from 2021 through 2024, as well as for January 1, 2025.

The article explains that Fort Worth’s rapid population growth has made it the 10th-largest city in the U.S., and demographer Dr. Helen You says this growth is driven by migration and changing population trends in Texas.
