Nevada's population in the year to July 2025

On July 1, 2025, Nevada had an estimated 3,282,188 residents, 28,645 more than a year earlier (+0.88%). Ranked by that rate of change, it is 9th of the 50 states and DC.

Components of change in the year to July 2025
  • Natural change (births minus deaths)+3,051
  • Net international migration+10,551
  • Net domestic migration (other states)+14,914

All three parts of the change added people: net domestic migration (14,914), net international migration (10,551) and natural change (3,051), largest first. Births outnumbered deaths, 32,511 to 29,460. The remaining 129 is the Census Bureau's residual, change the three parts do not explain.

Net domestic migration came to 4.6 per 1,000 residents, 10th among the 50 states and DC. Counting international arrivals too, net migration was 7.8 per 1,000.

Against the April 2020 estimates base of 3,105,593, the 2025 estimate is up 5.7%.

Both Census sources point the same way: the state-to-state survey counted more arrivals than departures, outside its margin of error, and the 2025 estimate puts net domestic migration at +14,914.
