Growth and Density of U.S. Cities

Major Cities and Population Milestones

The United States, which is home to a population of 300 million people, has 12 cities with populations exceeding 1 million. The largest city in the US is New York City, with 8.4M residents. Los Angeles (3.9M) and Chicago (2.7M) follow, and southern cities Houston (2.4M) and Phoenix (1.7M) round out the top five. The 2020 Census revealed 10 US cities with populations exceeding 1 million, but recent population shifts have reduced this number to 9 as San Jose's population has dipped below the million-resident threshold.

Population Density of U.S. Cities

Population Density is a measure of how many people live in a specific area, usually calculated as the number of people per square mile or square kilometer. A higher population density means more people live close together, while a lower density means people are more spread out.
