About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the Atlanta population over the last 20 plus years. It lists the population for each year, along with the year on year change in population, as well as the change in percentage terms for each year. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population change of Atlanta across the last two decades. For example, using this dataset, we can identify if the population is declining or increasing. If there is a change, when the population peaked, or if it is still growing and has not reached its peak. We can also compare the trend with the overall trend of United States population over the same period of time.

Key observations

In 2023, the population of Atlanta was 510,823, a 2.42% increase year-by-year from 2022. Previously, in 2022, Atlanta population was 498,771, an increase of 1.23% compared to a population of 492,690 in 2021. Over the last 20 plus years, between 2000 and 2023, population of Atlanta increased by 91,441. In this period, the peak population was 510,823 in the year 2023. The numbers suggest that the population has not reached its peak yet and is showing a trend of further growth. Source: U.S. Census Bureau Population Estimates Program (PEP).

This dataset is published by the Research & Analytics Group at the Atlanta Regional Commission to show population change by utilizing the 2020 redistricting data and comparable data for 2010, 2000, and 1990 across multiple geographies for the State of Georgia. For a deep dive into the data model including every specific metric, see the Data Manifest. The manifest details ARC-defined naming conventions, names/descriptions and topics where applicable, summary levels; source tables; notes and so forth for all metrics.

It should be noted:The 2020 redistricting release is not as detailed in terms of data compared to ACS estimates; data include total population, population by race and ethnicity, and "voting age" population (i.e., adults) by race and ethnicity, adults are subtracted from the total population to show children (ages 0-17); total number of housing units, occupied housing units, and vacant housing units. Percent and change measures are calculated over four different Censuses.These data are expressed in terms of 2020 geographies such as the new 2020 Census tracts. This means that that historical data for geographies like cities have been estimated to the 2020 boundaries. For example, the city of Atlanta, which has made multiple annexations since 1990, has a higher estimated 1990 population of 400,452 (2020 boundaries) than the 394,017 reported in the 1990 Census (1990 boundaries).Due to changes in block geographies and annexations, 2010 population totals for custom geographies such as City of Atlanta NSAs may differ slightly from the numbers we have published in the past.The procedure to re-estimate historical data to 2020 blocks often results in fractional population (e.g., 1.25 instead of 1 or 2). Counts have been rounded to the nearest whole, but to be more precise, all aggregation, percent, and change measures were performed pre-rounding. Some change measures may appear curious as a result. For example, 100.4 - 20.8 = 79.6 which rounds to 80. But if rounded first, 100.4 rounds down to 100, 20.8 rounds up to 21; 100 - 21 = 79.Asian and Pacific Islander categories are combined to maximize compatibility with the 1990 release, which reported the two groups as a single category. Caution should be exercised with 1990 race data because the Census Bureau changed to the current system (which allows people to identify as biracial or multiracial) starting only in 2000.The "other" race category includes American Indian and Alaska Natives, people identifying with "some other race" and (for 2000 forward), people who identify as biracial or multiracial.For more information regarding Decennial Census source data, visit 2020 Census website

Scope of gender :

Please note that American Community Survey asks a question about the respondents current sex, but not about gender, sexual orientation, or sex at birth. The question is intended to capture data for biological sex, not gender. Respondents are supposed to respond with the answer as either of Male or Female. Our research and this dataset mirrors the data reported as Male and Female for gender distribution analysis. No further analysis is done on the data reported from the Census Bureau.

Variables / Data Columns

• Gender: This column displays the Gender (Male / Female)
• Population: The population of the gender in the Atlanta is shown in this column.
• % of Total Population: This column displays the percentage distribution of each gender as a proportion of Atlanta total population. Please note that the sum of all percentages may not equal one due to rounding of values.

About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the data for the Atlanta, GA population pyramid, which represents the Atlanta population distribution across age and gender, using estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey (ACS) 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates. It lists the male and female population for each age group, along with the total population for those age groups. Higher numbers at the bottom of the table suggest population growth, whereas higher numbers at the top indicate declining birth rates. Furthermore, the dataset can be utilized to understand the youth dependency ratio, old-age dependency ratio, total dependency ratio, and potential support ratio.

Key observations

• Youth dependency ratio, which is the number of children aged 0-14 per 100 persons aged 15-64, for Atlanta, GA, is 20.0.

Therefore, any measure reported by ACS should not be taken as an exact number – this is why a corresponding margin of error (MOE) is also given for ACS measures. The size of the MOE relative to its corresponding estimate value provides an indication of confidence in the accuracy of each estimate. Each MOE is expressed in the same units as its corresponding measure; for example, if the estimate value is expressed as a number, then its MOE will also be a number; if the estimate value is expressed as a percent, then its MOE will also be a percent. The user should also note that for relatively small geographic areas, such as census tracts shown here, ACS only releases combined 5-year estimates, meaning these estimates represent rolling averages of survey results that were collected over a 5-year span (in this case 2017-2021).

Therefore, any measure reported by ACS should not be taken as an exact number – this is why a corresponding margin of error (MOE) is also given for ACS measures. The size of the MOE relative to its corresponding estimate value provides an indication of confidence in the accuracy of each estimate. Each MOE is expressed in the same units as its corresponding measure; for example, if the estimate value is expressed as a number, then its MOE will also be a number; if the estimate value is expressed as a percent, then its MOE will also be a percent.
