Florida’s population reached 20.7 million by the end of 2016. In 1910, the state had a population of 1 million people. By 1980 it had grown to 10 million. Since then, the population has doubled.
Florida’s population grew 1.84 percent in the past year, trailing only North Dakota, Colorado and Nevada as the fastest-growing states. Florida trailed only California (39.14 million) and Texas (27.5 million) in overall population.
Florida’s population grew by more than 1,000 people per day, a pace that has accelerated over the past year. Jobs are the No. 1 reason people are attracted to the state. This trend is driven, in part, by the economic challenges in Puerto Rico. We also welcome families from Brazil and other countries in Latinamerica, Europe and even families from other States where their economy is not 100% over the recent economic recession; and they all are making Florida their new home. Most of them are coming specifically to Central Florida, making the Orlando a very attractive place for real estate investors who buy homes to rent on a long term basis to families in need of housing.
