How many people are there in America in 2023?

In 2023, the population of the United States was about 334 million.

The United States conducts a census every ten years. The results of the 2020 census show that the population of the United States is 33 1, 449, 28 1. According to Agence France-Presse, compared with the population growth of 9.7% from 2000 to 20 10, the population growth from 20 10 to 2020 dropped significantly.

Researchers believe that the 2008 financial crisis is an important reason for the decrease of population growth in the United States in the past 10 years. Affected by that crisis, the birth rate in the United States dropped and many Mexican immigrants returned to China. In addition, the drastic tightening of immigration policy by former US President Donald Trump has also had a considerable impact on the demographic changes in the United States.

The composition of the American population

The population of the United States is mainly composed of five major races: European-American, African-American, Asian-American, Native American and Native Hawaiian. European Americans, including white Europeans from Spain and other countries who first came to Latin America and then the United States, account for about 79% of the total population, African Americans account for about 13%, and the Asian population exceeds 6% for the first time. Native Americans, including Indians, Alaskan Turks and Hawaiian aborigines, account for about 1.5%.

The population of the United States has more than tripled since the 20th century. From 76 million in 1900 to 281000 million in 2000, with an average annual growth of 1.3%. At present, the population of ethnic minorities has the fastest growth rate. According to the Census Bureau's estimate of 20 12, 50.4% of American children under one year old belong to ethnic minorities.
