Florida is once again the fastest-growing state in the U.S., according to a Census report released Thursday, reclaiming the top spot for the first time in more than 60 years.
The Sunshine State saw a 1.9 percent population increase from 2021 to 2022, surpassing population growth in any other state for the first time since 1957.
- Since 1946, Florida’s population has grown every year — even when U.S. population growth slowed overall. But in past years, it’s been edged out by Nevada, a state whose population today is a whopping 22 times its population in 1946.
