List of United States cities by population

Page semi-protected
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of the most populous municipal corporations of the United States. As defined by the United States Census Bureau, an incorporated place includes cities, towns, villages, boroughs, and municipalities.[a] A few exceptional census-designated places (CDPs) are also included in the Census Bureau's listing of incorporated places.[b] Consolidated city-counties represent a distinct type of government that includes the entire population of a county, or county equivalent. Some consolidated city-counties, however, include multiple incorporated places. This list presents only the portion of such consolidated city-counties that are not a part of another incorporated place.

This list refers only to the population of individual municipalities within their defined limits; the populations of other municipalities considered suburbs of a central city are listed separately, and unincorporated areas within urban agglomerations are not included. Therefore, a different ranking is evident when considering U.S. urban areas or metropolitan areas.

50 states and Washington, D.C.

This table lists the 336 incorporated places in the United States, excluding the U.S. territories, with a population of at least 100,000 as of July 1, 2023, as estimated by the U.S. Census Bureau. Five states have no cities with populations exceeding 100,000. They are: Delaware, Maine, Vermont, West Virginia, and Wyoming.

The table displays:

  1. The city rank by population as of July 1, 2023, as estimated by the United States Census Bureau[1]
  2. The city name[1]
  3. The name of the state in which the city lies[1]
  4. The city population as of July 1, 2023, as estimated by the United States Census Bureau[1]

  6. The city percent population change from April 1, 2020, to July 1, 2023
  7. The city land area as of January 1, 2020[2]
  8. The city population density as of April 1, 2020 (residents per unit of land area)[2]

Other U.S. territories

As of 2023, four U.S. territories — American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the U.S. Virgin Islands — have no cities with at least 100,000 people.[4]

Census-designated places

The following table lists U.S. census-designated places (CDPs) with populations of at least 100,000 according to the 2020 census. A CDP is a concentration of population identified by the United States Census Bureau for statistical purposes. CDPs are delineated for each decennial census as the statistical counterparts of incorporated places such as cities, towns and villages. CDPs are populated areas that lack separate municipal government, but which otherwise physically resemble incorporated places. Unlike the incorporated cities in the main list, the US Census Bureau does not release annual population estimates for CDPs.

The table below contains the following information:

  1. The census-designated place
  2. The state
  3. The census-designated place population as of April 1, 2020, as enumerated by the 2020 United States census[5]
  4. The census-designated place population as of April 1, 2010, as enumerated by the 2010 United States census
  5. The census-designated place percent population change from April 1, 2010, to April 1, 2020
