Technical note: The Census Bureau releases new population and housing unit estimates each year. Each new series of data (called Vintages) incorporates the latest administrative record data, geographic boundaries, and methodology. Therefore, the entire time series of estimates beginning with the date of the most recent decennial census is revised annually. The current vintage year (V2023) consists of data for 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023.
