Explanation:
[STC001881] According to the data provided by the United States Census Bureau for the year 2019, Idaho had the highest percentage of population growth. Between July 1, 2018, and July 1, 2019, the oft-overlooked Gem State grew from an estimated 1.75 million people to an estimated 1.787 million people — a 2.1% increase. In point of fact, it was the only state to grow by more than 2%; following it on the list are Nevada, Arizona, and Utah, each of which saw a growth of 1.7%. According to a press release from the Census Bureau, Texas had the greatest growth in terms of the number of actual people — 367,215 — but because its population is already so massive (more than 28 million), it is fifth on the list for percent growth, at 1.3%. This is because Texas’s population is already so large. What about the entire population of the United States in the year 2019? The U.S. Census Bureau estimates that it grew by 0.5% between 2018 and 2019, a slight dip from this decade’s peak growth of 0.73% between 2014 and 2015.
