Census Data
Every ten years the federal government conducts
the Census of the United States Population, as required by the U. S.
Constitution. The first census was taken in 1790 under the responsibility of
Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson. That census counted 5,233 York County
residents, including 661 residents of the Town of York. As of the 2000 Census,
the County’s population had grown to 56,297, while the population of Yorktown
had fallen to 203.
