Ranking · Decline 2020–2024
Cities lose population for many reasons: economic contraction, housing cost pressures, regional migration shifts, or boundary changes. This table is a data view, not a judgment — each city's trajectory has context that a single four-year delta cannot capture. Use it as a starting point, not a verdict.
Methodology · vintage seam
Change is shown only as 2020 base → 2024 estimate, both from Vintage 2024 of the Census Population Estimates Program. We do not compute 2010 → 2024 because the 2010 estimate is from a different vintage and would mix methodology shifts with real population change.

Methodology · how this list is built
The 5,000-resident floor. Cities with fewer than 5,000 residents in the 2020 base are excluded. A village declining from 60 to 55 people would otherwise rank near the top on percentage terms — the floor keeps the leaderboard meaningful.
Estimation uncertainty. The Census Population Estimates Program produces annual estimates, not a full enumeration. Single-year changes of a few hundred people may not be statistically meaningful. Larger multi-year declines are more reliable signals.
Incorporated places only. The Vintage 2024 estimates program does not produce annual estimates for Census-Designated Places (CDPs). This list covers incorporated places, consolidated cities, and the District of Columbia — CDPs are an explicit V2 gap in the dataset.
