Population
2023: 335.7 million people
The population of the United States as of June 2023 is 335.7 million people.
2022: Population increase by 1.2 million to 332.2 million
In 2022, the US population grew by 1.2 million people and reached 332.2 million. This is evidenced by data from the American Census Bureau.
According to the Associated Press, citing data from the department, the increase was mainly due to migration from other countries. Over the year, more than 1 million people moved to the United States. This figure increased by 168% compared to 2021, for which 376 thousand people moved to the United States.
The Census Bureau added that in 2022, the total number of births in the country increased for the first time since 2007. In general, the annual growth rate of the US population in 2022 amounted to 0.4% against 0.1% in 2021, when due to the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, the dynamics turned out to be the lowest in the history of the country.
In the northeastern part of the United States, the population in 2022 decreased by 219 thousand people, largely due to the move of local residents from New York, New Jersey and Massachusetts, as well as deaths exceeding the birth rate in Pennsylvania. In the midwest, there were 49 thousand fewer residents, partly due to the fact that people left Illinois, and mortality in Ohio exceeded the birth rate.
In the southern United States, there are 1.3 million more inhabitants, which is the largest indicator among all regions, thanks to population growth in Texas and Florida (more than 400 thousand people in each state). Other southern states, such as North Carolina, Georgia, South Carolina and Tennessee, saw the largest population growth in the U.S. in 2022.
Texas, the second most populous state in the United States, exceeded the 30 million mark, joining California. But California in 2022 lost 113 thousand inhabitants, which was the largest annual decline after a decrease in the number of residents of New York State by 180 thousand people. The population decline was caused by the fact that more than 343 thousand residents left California and moved to other states.[1]
According to other estimates, by September 2022, there were 335 million people in the United States.

Migration
2023: Illegal immigration crisis
The administration of US President Joe Biden invites asylum seekers to apply through the official CBP One application, which accepts 30,000 applications per month. However, the application works intermittently, and the queues are large. Therefore, most migrants prefer to cross the border illegally between checkpoints. In October 2023, there were almost 190 thousand such migrants.
On the American side, migrants are met by border officials. A case is opened against migrants to consider their application for asylum seeker in court. However, the US immigration court is no longer coping with the flow of migrants - at the end of 2023, more than three million pending cases are in court. Newly arrived migrants are issued subpoenas for 2027 and later. While awaiting trial, migrants may be in the United States, which they use.
Southern states - especially Texas Arizona - are taking a major migration hit. The Democrat-hated governor of Texas - Republican Greg Abbott - has long sent buses, and more recently planes, with migrants to 'sanctuary cities' speaking out in support of migrant rights. These include,, New York Chicago Boston, San Francisco and others. However, these cities are already struggling to cope with the influx of migrants: Chicago and Boston do not always have enough shelter space, so migrants have to be accommodated at airports and police stations. New York spends almost $10 million a day on keeping migrants in hotels in the city, while getting a job or leaving for other cities, migrants are in no hurry. Mayors of these cities write letters to Biden asking him to increase subsidies for the maintenance of migrants.
On May 11, 2023, the Biden administration repealed the so-called "Section 42," which allowed migrants to be deported without explanation and unnecessary bureaucracy.
On May 31, 2023, the administration removed the need to take a DNA test for those migrants who crossed the border with a child and claimed to be their relatives.
2022: 79K refugees from Afghanistan arrive in US
In January 2022, the number of refugees from Afghanistan who arrived in the United States under the "Welcome Allies" Democratic program was estimated at 79,000 people.
The federal government prevents southern states from defending themselves in any way, including building walls, barriers on rivers and using force against illegal immigrants.
2021: Net population inflow over 4 years and promotion of illegal immigration
On January 20, 2021, US President Joe Biden lifted a state of emergency on the southwestern border, thereby stopping the construction of a border wall. In addition, he abolished several decrees of his predecessor Donald Trump, which allowed him to control the situation at the border.
On February 6, 2021, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken began the process of terminating agreements with El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras, which guaranteed that migrants would not go to the United States.
March 21 - August 31, 2021, the administration allowed more than 100 thousand illegal immigrants of foreigners into the United States. It is noteworthy that migrants were no longer given special referrals to the Immigration and Customs Police (ITP), instead they were recommended to self-report to ITP.
In October 2021, the Department of Homeland Security lifted a series of measures that prevented migrants from getting a job.
In November 2021, the US administration introduced a program that provided for alternatives to detention - as a result, thousands of illegal immigrants were simply released after being captured.

Homeless
2023: U.S. homeless numbers rise 11% in a year
In 2023, the number of homeless people in the United States increased by a record 11% compared to the previous year. Such data was published on August 14, 2023 by The Wall Street Journal.
It is said that in 2023 there is the fastest increase in the number of Americans without a fixed place of residence in the entire history of collecting relevant statistics. The figure of 11% exceeds the pre-pandemic (we are talking about the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic) values. Journalists from The Wall Street Journal analyzed data from more than 300 organizations that track homeless people in urban areas, counties and states. According to estimates, by August 2023, the number of homeless people in the country exceeds 577 thousand people. However, those numbers could be adjusted somewhat after the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development submits its final annual report.
According to researchers, the record growth rate of the number of Americans without a roof over their heads is explained by many problems. These are high housing costs, a shortage of rental space, an ongoing "opioid crisis" and an increase in the flow of migrants. In addition, amid the crisis and macroeconomic challenges, many US citizens have faced an increase in loan debt. The situation is aggravated by the reduction in assistance from the authorities, which was allocated at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Overall, the report's authors note, the rise in homelessness in 2023 indicates that the nation's national housing crisis has worsened. In 2010-2016. the proportion of Americans who do not have a permanent meta residence has been steadily declining. However, after 2016, the number of homeless people went up. During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021, the number of homeless people has become almost half as much. But already in January 2022, more than 582 thousand US residents did not have a roof over their heads.[2]
2018
The homeless population of the United States has increased in two years. As of January 2018, 553,000 people are homeless in the United States, with 65% of the total number of such people living in shelters.
Half of all homeless people live in one of five states - California (129,972), New York (91,897), Florida (31,030), Texas (25,310) and Washington (22,304).
