The data as of July 1, 2022, provides estimates at the national, state, and county levels for population by age, sex, race, and Hispanic origin.

Highlights from this release include:

The population cohorts aged 75 to 79 and 70 to 74 were the fastest-growing, with those aged 75 to 79 far exceeding other growing cohorts.

The most substantial growth occurred in the Hispanic or Latino, multiracial*, and Asian* populations.

*Refers to non-Hispanic individuals.
