| Our ace demographer at Unleash Prosperity, Wendell Cox, notes that in the last three years, Texas has added 600,000 net domestic migrants. Texas is now the second- largest state by a considerable margin.
According to Cox’s latest analysis: “The latest migration data show that in just three years since the 2020 Census reduced California’s population advantage by 1.9 million (from 10,400,000 in the 2020 census to 8,500,000).
The state government, Texas Demographic Center, forecasts that Texas will achieve a population of 41.6 million by 2050, which is more than 1,000,000 above the official California projection. By 2060, the Texas advantage would rise to nearly 5,000,000.
