| Abstract | This report provides projections of the U.S. population by age, race, and sex, and of the components of population change (births, deaths, and migration). Statistical tables project the population increase annually from 1977 to 2000, and in less detail from 2000 to 2050. The author stresses that these reports are projections rather than predictions, given the uncertainty of certain variables such as the birth rate. As of July 1, 1976, the U.S. population was 215 million. Projections indicate that the population will increase to between 246 million to 283 million by the year 2000. Limitations of the report are: (1) projections are based on the assumption that no major catastrophes such as wars or epidemics will occur; and (2) the assumed level of immigration at 400,000 per year does not include illegal immigration or emigration patterns. The introduction to the report explains the methodology of the research. Text and detailed tables form the major portion of the report. Fertility, mortality, and immigration data, projections regarding components of change in relationship to age and sex, plus an estimated completeness of coverage are included in appendices. (KC) |
