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.
A surge in immigration and migration to states like Texas and Florida is boosting GOP states’ populations, potentially adding U.S. House seats. Dr. Lloyd Potter notes that slower post 2024 immigration could slow Texas’ growth and affect future representation.
The article explains that Texas’s population growth slowed in 2025 because fewer people moved into the state from other U.S. states, according to new Census estimates, and Dr. Helen You of the Texas Demographic Center says this may be because many who wanted to relocate already have.
