Trends: 2010 U.S. Census Released, Texas Grows Again
The 2010 Census results have been released. Official U.S. population: 308,745,538 (give or take 3). Texas gains again. Population of Texas: 25,145,561. Texas had the largest population increase of any state, so it will gain four additional House Congressional seats (for a total of 36). The other 49 states probably hate to hear it.
One very interesting feature found on the story above is a 2010 Census Interactive Map, that has tabs for each census over the past hundred years. It is interesting to see the growth and contraction of state populations over time. Texas is on an uninterrupted incline over that period.
