About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the Phoenix 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 Phoenix 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 Phoenix was 1.65 million, a 0.38% increase year-by-year from 2022. Previously, in 2022, Phoenix population was 1.64 million, an increase of 1.15% compared to a population of 1.63 million in 2021. Over the last 20 plus years, between 2000 and 2023, population of Phoenix increased by 322,874. In this period, the peak population was 1.68 million in the year 2019. 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).

PASS is an interdisciplinary collaboration between researchers affiliated with the Central Arizona-Phoenix LTER (CAP LTER) and the Decision Center for a Desert City at Arizona State University. PASS uses social surveys of individuals in selected neighborhoods as methodology to explain the choices and actions of households and communities that influence the biophysical environment and the feedbacks of the environment to the quality of human life. After a successful pilot study in 2001-2002, data gathering for a much larger survey of 800 households in 40 neighborhoods is nearly completed. PASS 2006 is the benchmark for planned long-term social monitoring that will complement ecological monitoring in the CAP LTER study region
