More Deets On Kansas City Trending Population Numbers

A great glimpse and info from this local breaks down the numbers . . .

"Since 2020 we’ve added 75,441 people (3.44%), which puts us on track for moderately slower absolute growth than the 2000s and 2010s. Slow growth in ‘20 and ‘21 have been almost completely offset by faster growth in the past three years. 

"Relative to other large US metros, KC has seen solid growth in both the past year and the first half of this decade overall. We were 20th/50 in 2025 and 22nd/50 overall, far outpacing St Louis (44th, 42nd) and similar to Midwestern peers like Cincinnati (23rd, 29th), Columbus (15th, 20th), and Indianapolis (13th, 16th). Fellow railroad town Denver (31st, 19th) had a slower year but has grown similarly overall.

"As is typical, Sunbelt growth dominated the charts while the Rust Belt and Coastal California bled residents. Midwestern metros were mostly somewhere in the middle."
