Source detail

Source detail: Cities and towns: annual population

Cities and towns: annual population

Source agency: U.S. Census Bureau, Population Division
Dataset: Vintage 2025 subcounty population estimates
Vintage / period: July 1, 2025; Vintage 2025
Native geography: Native PEP 061 county subdivisions, 162 places and 170 whole consolidated governments.
Transformation: Preserve each native observation. Reviewed continuity connects eligible ACS identities without replacing either source period or boundary vintage. Each comparison uses its declared jurisdiction policy.

Known limit: Overlapping jurisdictions are not additive. Annual PEP estimates are distinct from ACS five-year estimates; no ACS substitution or mixed-source population ranking.

Methodology Original source

Source detail: Cities, towns and communities: ACS population

Cities, towns and communities: ACS population

Source agency: U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey
Dataset: ACS five-year B01003 total population, estimate and 90% margin of error
Vintage / period: 2020–2024 collection period; 2024 geography
Native geography: Native ACS 060 subdivisions, 160 places, 170 whole consolidated cities; Puerto Rico 050 municipios in a separate territory scope.
Transformation: Copy B01003_001E and B01003_001M from each native record with their published missingness and controlled-estimate annotations. Compare only the same release and period.

Known limit: A period estimate is not a July 2024 population. Ranks order point estimates and do not establish statistically significant differences. Missing values remain unavailable; overlapping populations must not be summed.

Methodology Original source

Sources: U.S. Census Bureau, ACS 2020–2024 five-year estimates on the 2024 geography; Population Estimates Program Vintage 2025, July 1, 2025. Geographic classifications retain their own source vintage. Missing data stays unavailable.
