In September 2010, the U.S. Census Bureau issued their Vintage 2009 series of population estimates for cities and villages across the country. In the 17 months since then, the Census Bureau has released several more numbers representing total population, including the “official” 2010 Census count, for these same areas. For larger municipalities such as Cincinnati, the Census Bureau has now issued eight separate total population figures since September 2010 for various time frames covering the latter part of the 2001-2010 decade. Sound confusing? Well, it certainly can be – but in this post I’ll try to explain briefly where all these numbers are coming from, and make comparisons with illustrations featuring local municipalities.
