Even
with all of the recent hurricanes, crazy Florida Man stories and
reports of huge pythons in the swamps, people are still flocking to
live in the Sunshine State.
The
U.S. Census Bureau last week released new estimates showing Florida
had about 21.3 million residents as of July 1st, making Florida the
third most-populous state behind California and Texas.
Over
322 thousand people moved to the Sunshine State last year.
Florida
has seen its population steadily increase from 18.8 million in 2010
to 21.3 million this year but we are still way behind California,
which had an estimated 39.5 million people, and Texas, with 28.7
million residents.
Florida
was the fifth fastest growing state behind Nevada, Idaho, Utah and
Arizona.
There
were a few states that lost population during the year including New
York, Illinois, West Virginia, Louisiana, Hawaii, Mississippi,
Alaska, Connecticut and Wyoming.
