アメリカ合衆国南北アメリカ大陸西半球で最も人口の多い国であり、米国国勢調査局によると、2025年7月1日の予想人口は3億4,203万4,432人である[1]世界人口の約4%を占め、世界で3番目に人口の多い国である。 アメリカの人口は、2020年の国勢調査の3億3,144万9,281人から2024年の公式年間推計3億4,011万998人の間で2.6%増加した。[2]これらの数字には50州と連邦首都のワシントンD.C.が含まれるが、5つの非編入アメリカ領土(プエルトリコグアム米領バージン諸島アメリカ領サモア北マリアナ諸島)といくつかの小さな無人島領土の360万人の住民は含まれない。国勢調査局は、2024年7月までの12か月間の人口増加率が0.98%であると示しており、[3]これは世界推定の年間増加率1.03%をわずかに下回っています。[25]人種や民族的背景、宗教的所属、都市部と農村部の人口比など、いくつかの指標から判断すると、イリノイ州はアメリカ合衆国の人口統計を最も代表していると言えます。[26]

米国の人口は20世紀にほぼ4倍になり、年間約1.3%の成長率で、1900年の約7,600万人から2000年の2億8,100万人になった。[27] 1967年には2億人の大台に達し、2006年10月17日には3億人の大台に達したと推定されている。 [27] [28]外国生まれの移民によって米国の人口は急速な増加を続け、1990年の約2,000万人から2015年には4,500万人を超え、[29]人口増加の3分の1を占めている。[30]米国国勢調査局は2024年末、近年の米国への移民が、低い出生率と特殊出生率を相殺して余りあるほどの増加を見せていると報告した。「国際純移民の人口動向への影響はここ数年で増大している。2021年以降、純移民は国の成長の大部分を占めており、自然増加が主な要因であった過去20年間とは大きく異なる」。この結果、2022年、2023年、2024年の米国の人口はそれぞれ0.58%、0.83%、0.98%増加した。[31]

人口増加は全体として少数民族の間で最も速く、2020年の米国国勢調査局の分析によると、18歳未満の米国の子供の50%は少数民族グループに属しています。[32] 2020年時点で、白人アメリカ人は2億3,541万1,507人で、人口の71%を占めており、これには白人と他の人種の両方を自認する人々が含まれています。白人のみを自認する人(ヒスパニック系白人を含む)は2億4,277,273人で、人口の61.6%を占め、非ラテン系白人は国の人口の57.8%を占めています。[33]

2010年から2020年までの米国全体の人口増加の51.1%はラテン系アメリカ人によるものでした。[34]ヒスパニック系またはラテン系の人口は、2010年の5050万人から2020年には6210万人に増加し、23%の増加、1160万人以上の増加となりました。[34]今後数十年間の米国の人口増加の大部分は、移民とその米国生まれの子孫によってもたらされると予想されています。[35]

アジア系アメリカ人は、米国で最も急速に増加している人種グループであり、その成長率は35%です。しかし、最も急速に増加しているサブグループである多民族アジア系アメリカ人は、米国における異人種間結婚の増加を反映して、55%の成長率を記録しています。[36] [37]

2022年現在白人アメリカ人の母親による出生は米国全体の約50%を占めており、2021年と比較して3%減少しています。 [38]同じ期間に、アジア系アメリカ人とヒスパニック系女性の出生はそれぞれ2%と6%増加しました。[39]

米国10年ごとの国勢調査

1900年、米国の人口が7600万人だった当時、米国には6680万人の白人アメリカ人がおり、全人口の88%を占めていた。[40]黒人アメリカ人は880万人で、その約90%がまだ南部諸州に住んでいた。[41]そして、ヒスパニック系は50万人強であった。[42]

連邦法である1965年の移民国籍法の下では、[43]米国に住む第一世代の移民の数は増加しており、[44] 1970年の960万人から2007年には約3800万人に増加しています。[45] 1990年代には年間約100万人が合法的に米国に移民しており、1950年代の年間25万人から増加しています。[46]

1900年には、米国の10大都市の人口の約97%を非ヒスパニック系白人が占めていた[47]国勢調査局は、2010年7月から2011年7月の間に米国で生まれた子供の50.4%を少数民族(ヒスパニック系白人を含む)が占めていると報告した。[ 48]これは1990年の37%と比較して増加している。 [49]

2014年、出生率が最も低かったのはロードアイランド州で1.56、最も高かったのはユタ州で2.33でした。[50]これは各州の人口の年齢と相関しており、ロードアイランド州の平均年齢は全米で9番目に高く39.2歳、ユタ州は最も低く29.0歳となっています。[51]

2017年の米国の出生率は、人口減少を経験しないために女性一人当たり少なくとも2.1人の子供が必要な置換レベルを大きく下回ったままであり、全50州とコロンビア特別区で白人の出生数が減少した。非ヒスパニック系白人女性では、出生率が置換レベルを超えた州はなかった。非ヒスパニック系黒人女性では、12州が必要な置換レベルを超えた。ヒスパニック系女性では、29州が上回った。[52]非ヒスパニック系白人女性の場合、合計特殊出生率が最も高かったのはユタ州で2.099、最も低かったのはコロンビア特別区で1.012であった。非ヒスパニック系黒人女性の場合、合計特殊出生率が最も高かったのはメイン州で4.003、最も低かったのはワイオミング州で1.146であった。ヒスパニック系女性の合計特殊出生率は、アラバマ州が3.085で最も高く、バーモント州が1.200、メイン州が1.281で最も低かった。[52] [53] 2016年時点では、高齢化、出生率の低下、薬物の過剰摂取などによる死亡率の上昇により国内の半数以上の州で非ヒスパニック系白人の死亡数が出生数を上回っている。 [54]

密度

最も人口密度が高い州はニュージャージー州(1,263人/mi 2または488人/km 2)です。

人口は高度に都市化しており、人口の83.3%が都市部および郊外に居住している。[7]大きな都市クラスターは米国東部(特に五大湖周辺、北東部、東部、南東部)および西部諸州に広がっている。山岳地帯(主にロッキー山脈とアパラチア山脈)、南西部の砂漠、最北部の深い北方林、中央草原諸州は人口密度が低い。アラスカの人口は南海岸沿いに集中しており(特にアンカレッジ市)、ハワイの人口はオアフ島に集中している。[7] カリフォルニア州テキサス州は米国の人口の中心が一貫して西と南に移動しているため、最も人口の多い州はカリフォルニア州とテキサス州である。 [62] [63] ニューヨーク市は米国で最も人口の多い都市であり[64] 、少なくとも1790年以来その状態が続いている

米国の領土における人口の中心地としては、プエルトリコサンファン都市圏[65] 、北マリアナ諸島サイパン島[66] 、アメリカ領サモアツツイラ島などがあります[67]

人口密集地

アメリカ合衆国には数十の主要都市があり、その中にはあらゆる種類の「グローバル都市」[70]が31あり、そのうち10都市はグローバル都市の「アルファ」グループに属し、ニューヨークロサンゼルスシカゴワシントンD.C.ボストンサンフランシスコマイアミフィラデルフィアダラスアトランタとなっている[71]2021年現在、アメリカ合衆国には100万人以上の住民を抱える大都市圏が56​​ある。(米国国勢調査局は、ホノルル都市圏を人口100万人強で56番目に人口の多い地域にランク付けしている。アメリカ合衆国大都市統計地域表を参照。)

2011年現在、約2億5000万人のアメリカ人が都市部またはその周辺に居住しています。つまり、米国人口の4分の3以上が、米国の国土面積のわずか3%を占めていることになります。[72]

1970年から2000年までの米国における結婚、家族、親密な関係
米国の初婚年齢の中央値

米国国勢調査局によると、2021年の米国の人口増加率は、建国以来どの年よりも低かった。[105]米国の人口は前年からわずか0.1%しか増加しなかった。[105]米国の人口増加数が1937年以来初めて100万人を下回った。これは、国勢調査局が毎年の人口推計を始めた1900年以降で、少なくとも最も低い数値の増加数となった。[105]人口増加率が歴史的に低い水準にまで急落した過去数年間を除けば、20世紀で増加率が最も低かったのは、インフルエンザの流行と第一次世界大戦がともに本格化した1918年から1919年の間である。[105]米国では、出生率の低下と国際純移民、高齢化による死亡率の上昇により、ここ数年間、人口増加率の鈍化が常態化している。 [105]

言い換えれば、2010年代半ば以降、出生数と国際純移民数は減少し、死亡数は増加している。これらの傾向は、人口増加率の減少という累積的な影響を及ぼしている。[105]

COVID -19パンデミックによりこの傾向が加速し、2021年の人口増加は歴史的に緩やかなものとなりました。

2021年の成長率は0.1%と推定されている。[105]

The birth rate is 11.0 births/1,000 population, as of 2020.[106] This was the lowest birth rate since records began. There were 3,613,647 births in 2020, this was the lowest number of births since 1980.[106]

  • 11.0 births/1,000 population per year (final data for 2020).
  • 11.4 births/1,000 population per year (final data for 2019).[106]

In 2020, the CDC reported that there were 1,676,911 marriages in 2020, compared to 2019, there were 2,015,603 marriages.[107] Marriage rates varied significantly by state, ranging from 3.2 marriages/1,000 population in California to 21.0 marriages/1,000 population in Nevada.*[108]

  • 5.1 marriages/1,000 population per year (provisional data for 2020).[107]
  • 6.1 marriages/1,000 population per year (provisional data for 2019).[107]

*Rates are based on provisional counts of marriages by state of occurrence

In 2009, Time magazine reported that 40% of births were to unmarried women.[109] The following is a breakdown by race for unwed births: 17% Asian, 29% White, 53% Hispanics (of any race), 66% Native Americans, and 72% Black American.[110]

According to the CDC, in 2020, there were at least, 1,461,121 births to unmarried women. In 2020, 40.5% of births were to unmarried women. The following is a breakdown by race for unwed births: 28.4% Non-Hispanic White, 70.4% Non-Hispanic Black, and 52.8% Hispanic (of any race).[111]

The drop in the birth rate from 2007 to 2009 is believed to be associated with the Great Recession.[112]

A study by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) found that more than half (51 percent) of live hospital births in 2008 and 2011 were male.[113]

Per U.S. federal government data released in March 2011, births fell 4% from 2007 to 2009, the largest drop in the U.S. for any two-year period since the 1970s.[114]Births have declined for three consecutive years, and are now 7% below the peak in 2007.[115] This drop has continued through 2010, according to data released by the U.S. National Center for Health Statistics in June 2011.[115] Numerous experts have suggested that this decline is largely a reflection of unfavorable economic conditions.[116] This connection between birth rates and economic downturns partly stems from the fact that American birth rates have now fallen to levels that are comparable to the Great Depression of the 1930s.[117] Teen birth rates in the U.S. are at the lowest level in U.S. history.[118] In fact, teen birth rates in the U.S. have consistently decreased since 1991 through 2011, except for a brief increase between 2005 and 2007.[118] The other aberration from this otherwise steady decline in teen birth rates is the 6% decrease in birth rates for 15- to 19-year-olds between 2008 and 2009.[118] Despite these years of decrease, U.S. teen birth rates are still higher than in other developed nations.[118] Racial differences prevail with teen birth and pregnancy rates as well. The American Indian/Alaska Native, Hispanic, and non-Hispanic Black teen pregnancy rates are more than double the non-Hispanic white teen birth rate.[119]

Total fertility rate (TFR)

TFR of the United States overtime from 1820 to 2016

In 1800 the average U.S. woman had 7.04 children;[120] by the first decade of the 1900s, this number had already decreased to 3.56.[121] Since 1971, the birth rate has generally been below the replacement rate of 2.1.[122][123]: 3  Since the Great Recession of 2007, the rate has consistently been below replacement.[122][123]: 3  The drop in the TFR from 2.08 per woman in 2007 to 1.76 in 2017 was mostly due to the declining birth rate of ethnic minorities, teenagers and women in their 30s.[124] During that period, the birthrate for women ages 35 to 44 has risen.[122][124] The 12 month ending general fertility rate increased from 56.6 to 57.0 in 2022 Q1 compared to 2021 Q4.[125]

Total fertility rates from 1800 to 2020

The total fertility rate is the number of children born per woman. Sources: Ansley J. Coale, Zelnik and National Center for Health Statistics.[126]

Births and fertility by race

A total of 3,659,289 babies were born in 2021, a 1% increase from 2020. Additionally, researchers also looked at births by race and found that White and Hispanic women each saw the number of births increase by about 2% from 2020 to 2021. Meanwhile, Black and Asian women saw the number of births decline by 2.4% and 2.5%, respectively, over the same period, while American Indian/Alaskan Native women saw their numbers fall by 3.2%.[128] It also marks the first rise in births since 2014. Prior to this report, the total number of births had been decreasing by an average of 2% per year.[128] However, the total fertility rate (the number of births that the average women have over their lifetimes) was 1.6635 births per every woman. This is still below the replacement level, the level a population needs to replace itself, which is, at least, 2.1 births per woman.[128]

Life expectancy

Life expectancy in the United States since 1880
Life expectancy in the United States since 1960 by gender

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), average American life expectancy at birth was 78.4 years in 2023. This was a gain of 0.9 year from 77.5 years in 2022.[139] It was 76.4 years in 2021.[140]: 1 

  • Male: 75.8 years (2023), 74.8 years (2022), 73.5 years (2021)[140]: 1 
  • Female: 81.1 years (2023), 80.2 years (2022), 79.3 years (2021)[140]: 1 

Starting in 1998, life expectancy in the U.S. fell behind that of other wealthy industrialized countries, and Americans' "health disadvantage" gap has been increasing ever since.[141] Average U.S. life expectancy in the United States has actually declined in four of the years following 2014 (the year when average U.S. life expectancy reached 78.9 years, its historical peak).[142] These declines were mostly reversed in both 2022 (+1.1 years) and 2023 (+0.9 year).[143] As of 2024, death rates among the youngest remain well higher than in peer nations.[143] In 2023, there lower death rates in each of the ten U.S. leading causes of death but gains in life expectancy were largely driven by "decreases in mortality due to COVID-19, heart disease, unintentional injuries, cancer and diabetes".[143][139]

From 2019 to 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic had contributed to approximately 61% of the decrease in life expectancy in the United States.[144] While increases in mortality from unintentional injuries, heart disease, homicide, and diabetes contributed to 11.7%, 5.8%, 2.9%, and 2.8% of the decrease in life expectancy from 2019 to 2020, respectively.[144] Life expectancy has also varied by racial and ethnic group, with Non-Hispanic Asians having the highest life expectancy and Non-Hispanic American Indians having the lowest.[144] In 2021, life expectancy at birth in the United States fell for the second year in a row, the first two-year drop since 1961–1963.[145]

Future projections

The United States Census Bureau's 2017 projections were produced using the cohort-component method. In the cohort-component method, the components of population change (fertility, mortality, and net migration) are projected separately for each birth cohort (persons born in a given year). The base population is advanced each year by using projected survival rates and net international migration. Each year, a new birth cohort is added to the population by applying the projected fertility rates to the female population.

Race and ethnicity

Hispanics and Non-Hispanics in the United States (2020 United States census)[10]
  1. Non-Hispanic Americans (81.3%)
  2. Hispanic Americans (18.7%)

The following table shows the race and ethnicity of the United States per the 1930, 1970, 2000, and 2020 censuses. Data only covers states and the federal district, thus only covering the first 48 states and Washington, D.C. in 1930 and including Alaska and Hawaii as well in 1970, 2000, and 2020. The figures thus do not include various other territories that have been under the United States during this time period.[a] Over this time period, the U.S. has evolved from being 89% White, 10% Black and 1% Hispanic in 1930 to 58% White, 12% Black, and 19% Hispanic ninety years later, reflecting a significant demographic shift.

Race

Population pyramid by race/ethnicity in 2020

The United States Census Bureau collects racial data in accordance with guidelines provided by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and these data are based on self-identification. Many other countries count multiple races based on origin while America compiles multiple dozens of ethnicity groups into skin color grouping them together.[161] The racial classifications and definitions used by the U.S. Census Bureau are:[162]

  • White: a person having origins in any of the original peoples of Europe, the Middle East, or North Africa.[163] It includes people who indicate their race as "White" or report entries such as English, Azerbaijani, Iranian (Kurd and Lur), Irish, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Greek, Turkish, Lebanese, Moroccan (Arab and Berber), or Caucasian.
  • Black or African American: a person having origins in any of the Black racial groups of Africa.[163] It includes people who indicate their race as "Black, African Am." or report entries such as African American, Kenyan, Nigerian, or Haitian.
  • American Indian or Alaska Native: a person having origins in any of the original peoples of North and South America (including Central America) and who maintains tribal affiliation or community attachment.[163] This category includes people who indicate their race as "American Indian or Alaska Native" or report entries such as Navajo, Blackfeet, Inupiat, Yup'ik, Central American Indian groups, or South American Indian groups.
  • Asian: a person having origins in any of the original peoples of East Asia, Southeast Asia, or South Asia, such as Cambodia, China, India, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Pakistan, the Philippine Islands, Thailand, and Vietnam.[163]
  • Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander: a person having origins in any of the original peoples of Hawaii, Guam, Samoa, or other Pacific Islands.[163]
  • Some other race: includes all other responses not included in the "White", "Black or African American", "American Indian or Alaska Native", "Asian", and "Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander" racial categories described above includes Asians from West Asia or Russia (non-European Russia) and White Africans.
  • Two or more races: people may choose to provide two or more races either by checking two or more race response check boxes, providing multiple responses, or some combination of check boxes and other responses.

Data about race and ethnicity are self-reported to the Census Bureau. Since the 2000 census, Congress has authorized people to identify themselves according to more than one racial classification by selecting more than one category. Only one ethnicity may be selected, however, because the Census Bureau recognizes only two ethnicities – "Hispanic or Latino" and "Not Hispanic or Latino" – which are mutually exclusive since you can be one or the other, but not both. The singular term Hispanic has been supplanted as a federally-recognized ethnicity by the combined "Hispanic or Latino," defined by the Census Bureau as a person of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, South or Central American, or other Spanish culture or origin, regardless of race.[164]

Hispanic or Latino origin

CensusViewer US 2010 Census Latino Population as a heatmap by census tract

The U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) defines "Hispanic or Latino" as a person of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, Dominican, South or Central American, or other Spanish culture or origin regardless of race. People who identify with the terms "Hispanic" or "Latino" are those who classify themselves in one of the specific Hispanic or Latino categories listed on the decennial census questionnaire and various Census Bureau survey questionnaires – "Mexican, Mexican Am., Chicano" or "Puerto Rican" or "Cuban" – as well as those who indicate that they are "another Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish origin."[181] People who identify their origin as Hispanic or Latino may be of any race.[162]

Indigenous peoples

As of 2020, there are 9,666,058 people identifying as American Indian and Alaska Native people in the United States, including those identifying with more than one race,[182] representing around 3% of the U.S. population. This number includes not only groups indigenous to the United States, but any Indigenous people of the Americas,[183] including Mesoamerican peoples such as the Maya, as well as Canadian and South American natives. In 2022, 634,503 Indigenous people in the United States identified with Central American Indigenous groups, 875,183 identified with the Indigenous people of Mexico, and 47,518 identified with Canadian First Nations.[184] Of the 3.2 million Americans who identified as American Indian or Alaska Native alone in 2022, around 45% were of Hispanic or Latino ethnicity,[185][186] with this number growing as increasing numbers of Indigenous people from Latin American countries immigrate to the US and more Latinos self-identify with indigenous heritage. Of groups Indigenous to the contiguous United States, the largest self-reported tribes are Cherokee (1,449,888), Navajo (434,910), Choctaw (295,373), Blackfeet (288,255), and Sioux (220,739). Additionally, 205,954 identify with an Alaska Native tribe. There are 573 federally recognized tribal governments[187] in the United States.[188]

The US Census Bureau classifies Native Hawaiians separately from American Indians and Alaska Natives, grouping them with Pacific Islanders instead. According to 2022 estimates, 714,847 Americans identified with Native Hawaiian ancestry.[189]

Other groups

Veterans

There were 15.8 million veterans in 2023,[190] with only 6.2% of Americans having served in the Armed Forces.[191] In 2023 the war with the highest number of veterans was the Korean War. Most veterans were male at 14 million and 1.7 million veterans were female.[190]

Illegal/undocumented immigrants

In 2010, The Washington Post estimated that there were 11 million undocumented immigrants in the country.[192] As of 2017, Pew Research reported that there an estimated 10.5 million undocumented immigrants in the U.S.[193]

Prisoners

In 2023, an estimated 1,850,595 adults were imprisoned in the US.[194]

In 2016 it was reported that 92.7% of all prisoners were male, 6.9% female, 0.3% being transgender and 0.1% being nonbinary.[195] In 2022 there were 180,684 women in prison. Most women that were involved in the correctional system were under probation with 717,811 being so and parolees numbered at 76,870. 87,874 women were in prison and 92,900 in jail in 2022.[196]

Racially speaking at the federal level; 37% were Hispanic, 32% Black/African American, 21% white, 2% Native American or Alaska Native while Asians, Native Hawaiians and other pacific islanders made up 2% of the population while "Nearly 7% of federal prisoners identified as two or more races". At the state level 34% identified as Black/African American, 32% white, 21% Hispanic, 1% Native American or Alaskan Native, 1% as being either Asian/Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander and 11% "identified with two or more races".[195]

1 Including Hispanics

A report by the U.S. Census Bureau projects a decrease in the ratio of non-Hispanic Whites between 2023 and 2060, a decline from 58.9% of the population to 44.9%. Non-Hispanic Whites are projected to no longer make up a majority of the population by 2050, but will remain the largest single ethnic group. Non-Hispanic whites made up 85% of the population in 1960.[198]

While non-Hispanic whites are projected to become a minority, the total White population (including Hispanics), will remain a majority from 2023 to 2060, falling from 75.5% to 72.3% of the population who are white alone according to the projections.[199] However, these projections are not directly comparable to other Census Bureau data, as they are based on a modified race dataset,[200] which does not include the "some other race" category used in census surveys.[201] Individuals identifying as “some other race” alone or in combination made up 16.2% of the population in 2022,[202] and they are reclassified into recognized race categories in the dataset used for the projections.[203] As a result, there is a significant discrepancy between the share of the white alone population in 2023 according to the projections (75.5%), and the estimated share of white alone (60.9%), as reported by the American Community Survey in 2022.[204]

The report foresees the Hispanic or Latino population rising from 19.1% today to 26.9% by 2060, the Black percentage barely rising from 13.6% to 14.8%, and Asian Americans upping their 6.3% share to 9.4%. The United States had a population of 333 million people in July 2023, and is projected to reach 355  million by 2040 and 364 million in 2060.[205][206][207][208][209] It is further projected that all of the increase in population from 2023 to 2060 will be due to immigrants.

Of the nation's children in 2060, 64% are expected to be of a minority ethnicity, up from 51% today. Approximately 32% are projected to be Hispanic or Latino (up from 26% in 2023), and 36% are projected to be single-race, non-Hispanic Whites (down from 49% in 2023). Racial and ethnic minorities surpassed non-Hispanic whites as the largest group of U.S. children under 5 years old in 2015.[210]

The fastest growing racial group in America is Asian Americans with a growth rate of 35%, however the multiracial mixed Asian group is growing even faster, with a growth rate of 55%. Multiracial Asians are therefore the fastest growing demographic group in America.[37][36]

In 2020, it was reported that 51.0% of births were to non-Hispanic white mothers.[127] In 2021, the percentage increased to 51.5%.[127][211] However, by 2022 the rate of births to white mothers had declined by 3%, dropping to 50% of all total births. In the same period, the rate of births to Asian and Hispanic women increased by 2% and 6%, respectively.[39][38]

Pew Research Center projections

The United Nations projects a population of just over 400 million in 2060.[citation needed]

Hispanic Americans3.5%14%29%
Black Americans11%13%14%
Asian Americans0.6%5%9%
Note: All races modified and not Hispanic; American Indian/Alaska Native not shown.

The country's racial profile will be vastly different, and although whites will remain the single largest ethnic group in the U.S., they will no longer be a majority excluding White Hispanics by 2055 according to Pew Research Center. Growth in the Hispanic and Asian populations is predicted to almost triple over the next 40 years. By 2055, the breakdown is estimated to be 48% non-Hispanic white, 24% Hispanic, 16% Black, and 14% Asian.[213]

As of 2015, 14% of the United States' population is foreign born, compared to just 5% in 1965. Nearly 39 million immigrants have come to the U.S. since 1965, with most coming from Asia and Latin America. The 2015 Census Report predicts that the percentage of the U.S. population that is foreign-born will continue to increase, reaching 19% by 2060. This increase in the foreign-born population will account for a large share of the overall population growth.[213]

The average person in the U.S. of 2060 is likely to be older than the average person of 2018 today, and it is projected that almost one in four people will be 65 or older.[213]

Religious affiliations

Religion in the United States (2023)[221]
  1. Protestantism (39.0%)
  2. Catholicism (19.0%)
  3. Mormon (2.00%)
  4. Other Christian (2.00%)
  5. Jewish (2.00%)
  6. Muslim (1.00%)
  7. Buddhist (1.00%)
  8. Hindu (1.00%)
  9. Other religion (3.00%)
  10. Unaffiliated (29.0%)
  11. Refused (1.00%)

The table below is based mainly on selected data as reported to the United States Census Bureau. It only includes the voluntary self-reported membership of religious bodies with 750,000 or more. The definition of a member is determined by each religious body.[222] In 2004, the US census bureau reported that about 13% of the population did not identify themselves as a member of any religion.[223][clarification needed]

According to data from Pew Research, Americans are significantly more religious on average than populations in other developed Western nations, with 55% of Americans reporting praying daily, compared to only 25% of Canadians, 18% of Australians, 6% of British people, and 22% of Europeans as a whole.[224] The country has a smaller share of unaffiliated or atheist population than most other Western nations. However, this population has been growing significantly in recent decades. Surveys conducted in 2014 and 2019 by Pew indicated that the percentage of Americans unaffiliated with a religion increased from 16% in 2007 to 23% in 2014 and 26% of the population in 2019.[225][226] A Pew Research Survey performed in 2012 found that the number of Americans without a religion was approaching the number of Evangelical Protestants, and estimated that if the current growth rate in irreligion continued, around 51% of Americans will not have a religion by 2050.[227]

According to statistical data made by the Pew Research Center in 2023 about 62% of the US population is Christian, 29% is Unaffiliated, 2% is Jewish, 1% follows Buddhism, 1% follows Hinduism, 1% follows Islam and 3% follow traditional religions and others.[228] Currently, the United States has the largest Christian population in the world (approximately 210 million) and the largest Protestant Christian population (approximately 130 million). The country also has the second largest Jewish community in the world (after Israel) and the largest Buddhist and Hindu communities in the West, as well as the largest number of followers of Islam in North America. The country has about 99 million non-affiliates (only China and Japan have more).

According to Pew Research Center study released in 2018, by 2040, Islam will surpass Judaism to become the second largest religion in the US due to higher immigration and birth rates.[254]

Religions of U.S. adults

The United States government does not collect religious data in its census. The survey below, the American Religious Identification Survey (ARIS) 2008, was a random digit-dialed telephone survey of 54,461 American residential households in the contiguous United States. The 1990 sample size was 113,723; 2001 sample size was 50,281.

Adult respondents were asked the open-ended question, "What is your religion, if any?". Interviewers did not prompt or offer a suggested list of potential answers. The religion of the spouse or partner was also asked. If the initial answer was "Protestant" or "Christian" further questions were asked to probe which particular denomination. About one-third of the sample was asked more detailed demographic questions.

Religious Self-Identification of the U.S. Adult Population: 1990, 2001, 2008[255]
Figures are not adjusted for refusals to reply; investigators suspect refusals are possibly more representative of "no religion" than any other group.

LGBTQ population

The United States Census Bureau does not measure sexual orientation but plans are in place to start measuring it starting in 2027 with the American Community Survey.[257] In 2024, Gallup reported that 9.3% of adults were LGBTQ. The percentage of people who have reported being LGBTQ has risen during the 2010s and 2020s. Of LGBTQ adults in the United States the most common identification was Bisexual with 56.3% of LGBTQ adults identifying as Bisexual and Bisexual people made up 5.2% of the adult population. The survey reported that 13.9% of LGBTQ adults were transgender and made up 1.3% of the US adult population.[258]

In June 2023 the UCLA Williams Institute reported there were approximately 823,000 same-sex couples in the United States. According to the UCLA Williams Institute most same-sex couples were female at 53% and males were 47% of same-sex couples.[259]

Migration

Immigration

Foreign-born population

In recent decades, the U.S. has grown from having 9% (1990) to 15% (2020) of the population being born abroad.[260] The slopes of the tops of the differently-colored columns show the rate of percent increase in foreign-born people living in the respective countries.
Foreign born population percentage in the US over time from 1850 to 2020

As of 2017, an estimated 44,525,458 residents of the United States were foreign-born,[261] 13.5% of the country's total population. This demographic includes recent as well as longstanding immigrants; statistically Europeans have resided in the US longer than those from other regions with approximately 66% having arrived prior to 2000.[262]

In 2017, out of the U.S. foreign-born population, some 45% (20.7 million) were naturalized citizens, 27% (12.3 million) were lawful permanent residents (including many eligible to become citizens), 6% (2.2 million) were temporary lawful residents, and 23% (10.5 million) were unauthorized immigrants.[264] The Pew Research Center estimated that "the number of unauthorized immigrants in the United States reached an all-time high of 14 million in 2023 after two consecutive years of growth".[265]

Among current living immigrants to the U.S., the top five countries of birth are Mexico (25% of immigrants), China (6%), India (6%), the Philippines (5%) and El Salvador (3%). Some 13% of current living immigrants come from Europe and Canada, and 10% from the Caribbean.[264] Among new arrivals, Asian immigrants have been more numerous than Hispanic immigrants since 2010; in 2017, 37.4% of immigrant arrivals were Asian, and 26.6% were Hispanic.[264] Until 2017 and 2018, the United States led the world in refugee resettlement for decades, admitting more refugees than the rest of the world combined.[266] From fiscal year 1980 until 2017, 55% of refugees came from Asia, 27% from Europe, 13% from Africa, and 4% from Latin America, fleeing war and persecution.[266]

  • Net migration rate (2024): 3 migrants/1,000 population.[7] Country comparison to the world: 38th[7]
  • Net migration rate* (2020-2021): 0.73 migrants/1,000 population.[267]

*(mid-year estimates)

As of 2017, 13.6% (44.4 million) of the population was foreign-born – an increase from 4.7% in 1970 but less than the 1890 record of 14.8%. Some 45% of the foreign-born population were naturalized US citizens. Around 23% (10.3 million) of the foreign-born community is undocumented, accounting for 3.2% of the total population.[264] According to the 2010 census, Latin America and the Caribbean is the largest region-of-birth group, accounting for 53% of the foreign-born population. As of 2018, this region is still the largest source of immigrants to the United States.[268][269][270] In 2018, there were almost 90 million immigrants and U.S. born children of immigrants (second-generation Americans) in the United States, accounting for 28% of the overall U.S. population.[271] In 2018, 1,096,611 immigrants were granted either permanent or temporary legal residence in the United States[272]

Emigration and Expatriation

As of April 2015, the U.S. State Department estimated that 8.7 million American citizens live overseas. Americans living abroad are not counted in the U.S. Census unless they are federal government employees or dependents of a federal employee.[275] A 2010 paper estimated the number of civilian Americans living abroad to be around 4 million.[276] So-called "accidental Americans" are citizens of a country other than the United States who may also be considered U.S. citizens or be eligible for U.S. citizenship under specific laws but are not aware of having such status (or became aware of it only recently).[277]

As of 2022, 1.6 million Americans live in Mexico, according to the State Department.[278]

Economics

Income

In 2020, the median household income in the United States was around $67,521, 2.9 percent less than the 2019 median of $69,560.[279] Household and personal income depends on variables such as race, number of income earners, educational attainment and marital status.

Economic class

Social classes in the United States lack distinct boundaries and may overlap. Even their existence (when distinguished from economic strata) is controversial. The following table provides a summary of some prominent academic theories on the stratification of American society:

The U6 unemployment rate as of April 2017 was 8.6 percent.[290] The U6 unemployment rate counts not only people without work seeking full-time employment (the more familiar U3 rate), but also counts "marginally attached workers and those working part-time for economic reasons." Some of these part-time workers counted as employed by U6 could be working as little as an hour a week. And the "marginally attached workers" include those who have become discouraged and stopped looking, but still want to work. The age considered for this calculation is 16 years and over.

Urban Americans have more job opportunities than those in more rural areas. From 2008 to 2018, 72% of the nation's employment growth occurred in cities with more than one million residents, which account for 56% of the overall population.[291]

Generational cohorts

A definitive recent study of US generational cohorts was done by Schuman and Scott (2012) in which a broad sample of adults of all ages was asked, "What world events are especially important to you?"[292] They found that 33 events were mentioned with great frequency. When the ages of the respondents were correlated with the expressed importance rankings, seven (some put 8 or 9) distinct cohorts became evident.

Today the following descriptors are frequently used for these cohorts:

Generational Cohorts
GenerationBirth yearsNotesCitation
Lost Generation1883 – 1900Came of age during World War I; known for disillusionment and questioning of traditional values.[293]
Greatest Generation1901 – 1927Also called the "G.I. Generation"; fought in World War II.[294]
Silent Generation1928 – 1945Grew up during the Great Depression and World War II; includes most who fought in the Korean War.[295]
Baby boomers1946 – 1964The large generation of children born after World War II to the Greatest and Silent Generations; also called "boomers".[296]
Generation X1965 – 1980Sometimes called the "baby bust" generation due to declining birth rates after the baby boom.[297]
Millennials1981 – 1996Also known as "Generation Y".[298]
Generation Zc. 1997 – 2012Also known as "zoomers".[299]
Generation AlphaEarly 2010s – mid-2020sFirst generation fully raised in a digital world; children of millennials.[300]

Subdivided groups are present when peak boom years or inverted peak bust years are present, and may be represented by a normal or inverted bell-shaped curve (rather than a straight curve). The boom subdivided cohorts may be considered as "pre-peak" (including peak year) and "post-peak". The year 1957 was the baby boom peak with 4.3 million births and 122.7 fertility rate. Although post-peak births (such as trailing edge boomers) are in decline, and sometimes referred to as a "bust", there are still a relatively large number of births. The dearth-in-birth bust cohorts include those up to the valley birth year, and those including and beyond, leading up to the subsequent normal birth rate. The baby boom began around 1943 to 1946.[301]

From the decline in U.S. birth rates starting in 1958 and the introduction of the birth control pill in 1960, the Baby Boomer normal distribution curve is negatively skewed. The trend in birth rates from 1958 to 1961 show a tendency to end late in the decade at approximately 1969, thus returning to pre-WWII levels, with 12 years of rising and 12 years of declining birth rates. Pre-war birth rates were defined as anywhere between 1939 and 1941 by demographers such as the Taeuber's, Philip M. Hauser and William Fielding Ogburn.[302]

Mobility

In 2021, 27.1 million Americans said they were living in a different place than a year before, compared to 29.8 million in 2020. This reflects an 8.4% mover rate, the lowest recorded in more than 70 years.[303]

Education

In 2022 the most common level of highest educational attainment among those 25 years old and up (who were civilian and not institutionalized) was completing high school.[304]
