About this statistic

Michigan population stood at 10.0M in 2023, up 0.0% on the previous period.

Michigan population, from the Census Bureau's American Community Survey one-year estimates. The ACS is the country's largest household survey, and these state-level figures are the standard reference for population below the national level. Since 2010 the series has ranged from 9.9 million (2011) to 10.1 million (2021); the latest reading is 10.0 million for 2023, up from 10.0 million the period before.

Survey estimates carry margins of error that grow as geography shrinks; at the state level they are small but real. The 2020 pandemic disrupted collection, which is why some series skip or flag that year.

Frequently asked questions
Why is 2020 missing or unusual?
Pandemic disruption forced the Census Bureau to replace the standard 2020 ACS one-year estimates with experimental ones. Many series simply skip the year.
Are these counts or estimates?
Estimates from the American Community Survey, benchmarked to census counts. They carry sampling error, which is small at the state level.
