Population
Population
figures for York County come from a number of sources. The County’s
population is counted every ten years when the federal government
conducts the decennial Census of Population and Housing – the nation’s
headcount. The most recent Census was in the year 2000, when a total of
56,297 York County residents were counted. Between census years, the
Census Bureau publishes annual population estimates for every city and
county in the United States. In addition, the Weldon Cooper Center for
Public Service at the University of Virginia annually produces the
state’s “official” population estimates for every city, county, and town
in Virginia. The most current population estimates for the County are
produced by the York County Planning Division every six months for
budgeting purposes.
