About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the Detroit 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 Detroit 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 Detroit was 633,218, a 0.29% increase year-by-year from 2022. Previously, in 2022, Detroit population was 631,366, a decline of 0.37% compared to a population of 633,738 in 2021. Over the last 20 plus years, between 2000 and 2023, population of Detroit decreased by 312,253. In this period, the peak population was 945,471 in the year 2000. The numbers suggest that the population has already reached its peak and is showing a trend of decline. Source: U.S. Census Bureau Population Estimates Program (PEP).

Graph and download economic data for Resident Population in Detroit-Warren-Dearborn, MI (MSA) (DWLPOP) from 2000 to 2024 about Detroit, MI, residents, population, and USA.

This map shows demographic and income data in Detroit. Assuming an assignment where the poverty fighting charity I work for would like to alleviate suffering among impoverished children in Detroit. Detroit is a Michigan city that always ranks among America's poorest urban centers. Orange circles have below average median household income, the darker shades indicate households with a very low income-close to poverty level. The size of the circles: larger circles indicate a greater number of children in the area.What stands out is the obvioud pattern of low-income households in the city center combined with areas of high child population. This pattern helps answer where in Detroit our charity will focus its resources to help children living in poverty-in places shown on the map where there is a cluster of several large dark Orange circles like Dearborn and Pontiac (for example). The charity may and will offer free after school care and/Or but not limited to breakfast programs.
