San Bernardino, CA
Early Sunday morning, according to the U.S. Census Bureau (Bureau), the nation’s population crossed a new threshold when the country’s population exceeded 325 million.
According to the Bureau, short-term projections for the resident population of the United States use a monthly series of population estimates starting with the April 1, 2010 resident population from the 2010 Census. The projections do not include members of the U.S. armed forces overseas or other U.S. citizens residing outside the United States.
At the end of each year, a new series of population estimates from the census date forward is used to revise population estimates, including the population clock projections. Once a series of monthly projections is completed, the daily population clock numbers are determined.
