Florida's population has been increasing rapidly, reaching an 8.24% growth rate between July 2020 and July 2024, the fastest in the U.S. over that period. This rate is driven by factors like international migration and population growth in the South. The state's population increased by approximately 467,347 people from 2023 to 2024, placing it second in numeric gains behind Texas.
