Osceola Today

The numbers, with their vintages

As of November 2026 · each figure carries its instrument and year

The count: the Town of Osceola held 2,590 people at the 2020 census (PL 94-171, read cell by cell by the Population leg). The American Community Survey's 2020–2024 estimate puts the town at 2,593 ±21 — a survey estimate, not a count, and printed as one. The Census Bureau's estimates program has carried the town variously — a July 1, 2020 estimate of 2,596 on an estimates base of 2,600 in the 2021 vintage, a base of 2,587 in the current vintage — and the vintages are different instruments and are never merged here or anywhere in this build; the Population leg owns the series whole. Penn Township around the town held 68,698 at the same census. No newer ACS or estimates figure was retrieved in the search, and that absence is stated rather than papered over: the newest numbers this chapter can honestly print are the ones above. The postal town is not the town: ZIP 46561 reaches well beyond the limits in every direction, and postal "Osceola" figures, wherever they circulate, count the county's ground with the town's.
