New Census numbers show Texas is the second most populous state in the country with just over 30 million people. The state could have a population of 55 million in 2050 if growth was the same rate as it was in the first decade of the century.
PUBLISHED 10:51 AM CST Dec. 23, 2022AUSTIN, Texas — Texas was the nation’s fastest growing state in the last year, joining California as one of two states with a population of more than 30 million people.
“There was a sizeable uptick in population growth last year compared to the prior year’s historically low increase,” said Kristie Wilder, a demographer in the Census Bureau’s Population Division. “A rebound in net international migration, coupled with the largest year-over-year increase in total births since 2007, is behind this increase.
Demographer Lloyd Potter offers regular updates on demographic trends within Texas. Overall growth in the state’s largest counties is in the positive direction, but for Harris and Dallas counties, new births and the migration of international residents into the counties accounts for growth.
