Methodology & sources

How this dataset is built.

Primary source
U.S. Census Bureau, Population Estimates Program — Vintage 2025 Subcounty Population Estimates (released May 2026), reference date July 1, 2025.
Geography
Incorporated places (active legal cities, towns, villages, boroughs) plus 8 consolidated cities (Indianapolis, Nashville, Louisville, Athens-Clarke, Augusta-Richmond, Milford CT, Greeley County KS, Butte-Silver Bow MT) and 4 special cases (Washington DC, Urban Honolulu, Houma LA, Tribune KS). Excludes most CDPs and minor civil divisions.
Coverage
This is an included-city universe, not a total-U.S.-population denominator. The CSV and methodology pages disclose the additive population covered and the out-of-scope residents in unincorporated areas, CDPs, MCDs/townships, and county-balance geographies.
Geographic enrichment
2025 U.S. Census Bureau Gazetteer (cutoff January 1, 2025) for land area and density.
Growth fields
Within-vintage only. The 2010–2019 (V2019) and 2020–2025 (V2025) series are independent estimates; we do not compute a single 2010–2025 growth number.
