U.S. Census Bureau 2023 population estimates for New York's 10 most populous cities

 
3 of New York's 10 most populous cities registered gains since 2020, with New Rochelle, a suburb north of New York City, leading the way with a  5% increase.  

New York City registered the largest decline in population, a 6.2% pandemic-related drop.


All but 3 of New York's largest cities reached their population peak in 1960 or earlier.

The Census Bureau also has released population estimates for counties covering the period from April 2020 to July 2023. In the Rochester-Finger Lakes region, Ontario continues to stand out as the only county with a growing population—but it added just nine residents. Monroe County’s population declined by 10,948 residents, or 1.4 percent. The other counties also recorded negative growth rates: Livingston, -1.1 percent; Orleans, -3.1 percent; Wayne, -0.5 percent; and Yates, -1.2 percent. Of these counties, only Wayne and Yates reduced their losses compared with April 1, 2020, to July 1, 2022. 
New York as a whole saw a 3.1 percent drop in population in the 2020-23 period, compared with 1 percent growth nationwide.
