A Decade of State Population Change
January 10, 2013
This detailed look at annual percentage change in state population over the last decade shows variation in growth patterns. In recent years, North Dakota, and the District of Columbia have had the highest growth rates, in percentage terms, in the country. States such as Nevada and Arizona, fast-growers a decade ago, have had some moderation in their growth rates but the states continue to increase in population.
