About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the Houston County 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 Houston County 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 Houston County was 22,066, a 0.56% increase year-by-year from 2022. Previously, in 2022, Houston County population was 21,943, a decline of 0.09% compared to a population of 21,962 in 2021. Over the last 20 plus years, between 2000 and 2023, population of Houston County decreased by 1,049. In this period, the peak population was 23,683 in the year 2010. 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).

The American Community Survey (ACS) 5‑Year estimates for Houston, TX provides a breakdown of the city’s residents by race and ethnicity, such as White, Black or African American, Asian, and Hispanic or Latino origin. The ACS 5-Year estimates are based on surveys collected over a five-year period, which produces more reliable statistics for smaller towns and neighborhoods due to a larger sample size.

Use 5-Year Estimates for: Small geographic areas (tracts, block groups, neighborhoods), trend analysis when annual data is unavailable, and/or planning and policy decisions requiring higher reliability.

Use 1-Year Estimates for: Large geographic areas (populations of 65,000 or more), more current data for cities, counties, and states, and/or trend analysis of annual data.

About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the data for the Houston, TX population pyramid, which represents the Houston population distribution across age and gender, using estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey (ACS) 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates.
