The first release of total population estimates at the end of the calendar year includes demographic components of change (births, deaths, and migration). Later releases include population data by age, sex, race, and Hispanic origin and give numbers for single year of age, different age groupings, and median age. These data are estimates of the population of the 50 states and the District of Columbia as of July 1 of each year. Downloadable datasets available
