Texas Remains Top State for Population Growth Despite Immigration Decline

In 2025, Texas led the nation by adding 391,243 residents, bringing its total population to 31.7 million. However, this growth rate of 1.2% marks the slowest increase since 2021, primarily due to a significant drop in immigration. The state saw a 48% decrease in newcomers from abroad, totaling 167,475, influenced by previous immigration policies. Nationally, the U.S. population grew by less than half a percentage point, with a historic decline in net international migration. Despite these challenges, Texas's natural population increase from births outpaced deaths, with 390,203 births compared to 232,492 deaths last year. Local officials may find opportunities to address infrastructure needs as growth slows.
