Between July 2021 and July 2022, the nine-county Houston metro area, which includes the Woodlands and Sugarland, added 125,000 residents to its population, now totaling 7.34 million, according to the latest analysis by theBiggest build-to-rent communities coming soon in the Houston area
"There was a sizeable uptick in population growth last year compared to the prior year's historically low increase," Kristie Wilder, a demographer in the Population Division at the Census Bureau, previously told the Chronicle."A rebound in net international migration, coupled with the largest year-over-year increase in total births since 2007, is behind this increase."
A high net increase in migration typically signals a region's economic prosperity, the report said. In this regard, Houston stands out as an exception, as 12 of the nation's 20 largest metros saw more people moving out than in during 2022, exacerbating their population declines. According to the report, the strong population upswing could help explain Houston’s surge in jobs, housing demand, and traffic. In the 12 months ending July 1, 2022, the city saw an additional 176,000 jobs, 108,000 single-family homes, 21,000 apartment units and 280,000 vehicles, according to census data.
