State Demographic Projections to 2030
Based on Census Bureau annual population projections, Florida, California and Texas will account for nearly one-half (46 percent) of total U.S. population growth between 2000 and 2030. Florida, now the fourth most populous state, will edge past New York into third place in total population by 2011; California and Texas will continue to rank first and second, respectively, in 2030. Update. Projections reviewed in this section will be updated with Outlook 2060 projections now being developed. For more information, see http://proximityone.com/outlook2060.htm. In 2000, each of the nation’s 50 states had more people under 18 than 65 and older. In about half of the states, the ratio was more than two to one. In 2030, 10 states are projected to have more people 65 and older than under 18: Florida, Delaware, Maine, Montana, New Mexico, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Vermont, West Virginia and Wyoming. In six states, more than one in every four residents will be age 65 and older in 2030: Florida, Wyoming, Maine, New Mexico, Montana and North Dakota. As the oldest baby boomers join the population group 65 years and over in 2011, the population of this group is projected to grow faster than the total population in every state. Twenty six states are projected to double their 65 years and over population between 2000 and 2030. Assessing the Impact of Change. What will happen with the workforce size and composition over this period? How will the school age population be distributed by school district? How will the total population be distributed in terms of urban/rural and metro/non-metro geography? How will special care requirements for the 65 years and over population change over the period? How will these changes impact you? We use models and supplementary data to help answer these questions. Ranking tables referenced below enable you to easily view how individual states rank by year and type of demographic attribute. These projections are updated annually, coordinated with associated Census 2010 data, American Community Survey estimates and related multi-area estimates & projections.
