2020: 30,337 — the decline, in the redistricting file's own cells

April 1, 2020 · PL 94-171

The fourth count is read here from the Bureau's redistricting file itself, cell by cell: 30,337 people. Of them, 22,253 (73.3 percent) were of voting age and 8,084 (26.7 percent) were under eighteen — the child share down from 29.6 percent a decade before. The race table prints a place still predominantly one race alone — 28,454 of the 30,337 — and, inside that, the decade's real movement: White alone 24,996 (82.4 percent, down from 90.3 percent in 2010); Black or African American alone 1,003; Asian alone 1,906; American Indian and Alaska Native alone 82; Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander alone 23; some other race alone 444; and 1,883 people (6.2 percent) of two or more races, nearly four times the 2010 count of 499 — the single largest compositional change between the two censuses, printed as the file prints it. Hispanic or Latino residents numbered 1,217 (4.0 percent), of whom 734 were adults; the non-Hispanic White-alone population was 24,745.

Houses and households in the decline decade: 10,816 housing units, 10,458 of them occupied — the occupied count is the household count — and 358 vacant, a vacancy share of 3.3 percent, level with 2010's. The group-quarters population was 47: 35 institutionalized, all of them in nursing facilities by this section's own category split, and 12 noninstitutionalized. The Bureau's published one-page profile of this census adds the texture the redistricting file does not carry: a median age of 41.3 and an urban share of 98.0 percent of the population. The survey-era profile of the same place, five years on, is this section's closing article; it does not agree with the decennial profile on median age (41.3 against the survey's 40.4), and both figures print as their own records, not as a corrected pair.
