DENVER (KDVR) — Population growth is a regular topic of conversation along Colorado's Front Range, so it comes as no surprise that one Denver metro suburb is on the U.S. Census Bureau's new list of the fastest-growing cities in the U.S.
In the 2020 Census, Colorado saw a nearly 15% population increase from 2010, largely concentrated along the Front Range. The Census Bureau on Thursday released 2024 population estimates, along with comparisons among the 15 fastest-growing cities in the country.
Dominating the list were Southern cities, with Texas alone having seven of the top 15, but Colorado did make an appearance on the list.
Erie, which is north of Denver in Boulder County, landed in the 15th spot on the Census Bureau's list of the fastest-growing U.S. cities, with a 9.2% increase in 2024 from 2023. The town's 2024 population estimate is 38,594 residents.
