About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the Knoxville 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 Knoxville 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 Knoxville was 198,162, a 0.72% increase year-by-year from 2022. Previously, in 2022, Knoxville population was 196,748, an increase of 2.09% compared to a population of 192,718 in 2021. Over the last 20 plus years, between 2000 and 2023, population of Knoxville increased by 24,225. In this period, the peak population was 198,162 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).
