300 million Americans
Congratulations to the United States who last night gained their 300th million American. You can see their population change on their census clock.
Less than 100 years ago the population was only 100 million – in 1915. In 1800 the populaiton was a bit over 5 million.
The US is 80.4% “white” yet 31 ethnic groups have over one million members each.
The US today accepts more legal immigrants as permanent residents than the rest of the world combined.
