Characteristics of Colorado's Population
           
Data from Colorado Dept. of Public Health and Environment, and the U.S. Bureau of Census

 

- Population Growth Source

People moving into Colorado (inmigration) provides more than 50% of growth during economic boom years, and less than 50% during recession years.


 

 

 

 

Colorado has a much lower percentage of native-born population than other U.S. states.
Since 1990, Coloradans living alone have leveled off at 26% as the number of baby-boomers reaching adulthood leveled off.  Living alone is about twice as common as it was in the 1940s.
