Here Is How Much Colorado’s Population Will Grow By 2030
2030 might sound like a distant year, but here’s a quick reality check: it’s just around the corner. Think about it. Does 2015 feel like it was that long ago? Time flies faster than we realize. Next thing you know, it will be 2030 and Colorado will be a lot different.
There are already projections of what Colorado could look like in the year 2030. Experts predict that the average housing price will increase by over $200,000 to $763,309.
Housing looks like it will continue to be an issue in the future. A big reason why housing prices have risen so much is due to the fact that there are not enough homes for residents. Here is a look at what Colorado's population will look like by the time 2030 comes around.
Colorado's Population in 2030 Predicted
The Colorado State Demography Office has released data that gives us a clear look at potential population totals in the future. Their office also provides data that shows how much the population has grown in the past few years.
The Colorado State Demography office projects that by 2030, Colorado will be home to 6,386,548 people. In 2023, Colorado's population was 5,890,612.
How Many New Residents There Will Be in Colorado
That means that the state of Colorado believes that there will be nearly a half million more people in Colorado.
Does this mean that this many people will move here? We are sure they will add to that total, but this means that more residents will be born in Colorado and it is also calculated based on how many people will pass away by 2030.
