List of United States cities by population

The following is a list of the most populous incorporated places of the United States. As defined by the United States Census Bureau, an "incorporated place" includes a variety of designations, including city, town, village, borough, and municipality. A few exceptional Census Designated Places (CDPs) are also included in the Census Bureau's listing of incorporated places. Consolidated city-counties represent a distinct type of government that includes the entire population of a county, or county equivalent. Some consolidated city-counties, however, include multiple incorporated places. This list presents only that portion (or "balance") of such consolidated city-counties that are not a part of another incorporated place.

This list refers only to the population of individual municipalities within their defined limits, which does not include other municipalities or unincorporated suburban areas within urban agglomerations. A different ranking is evident when considering U.S. metropolitan area populations.

The following table lists the 295 incorporated places in the United States with a population of at least 100,000 on July 1, 2013, as estimated by the United States Census Bureau. A city is displayed in bold if it is a state or federal capital, and in italics if it is the largest city in the state. Five statesâ€"Delaware, Maine, Vermont, West Virginia and Wyomingâ€"do not have cities with populations of 100,000 or more. The table below contains the following information:

1. The city rank by population as of July 1, 2013, as estimated by the United States Census Bureau
2. The city name
3. The name of the state in which the city lies

6. The city percent population change from April 1, 2010, to July 1, 2013

Census-designated places

The following table lists U.S. census-designated places (CDPs) with populations of at least 100,000 according to the 2010 Census. A CDP is a concentration of population identified by the United States Census Bureau for statistical purposes. CDPs are delineated for each decennial census as the statistical counterparts of incorporated places such as cities, towns and villages. CDPs are populated areas that lack separate municipal government, but which otherwise physically resemble incorporated places. Unlike the incorporated cities in the main list, the US Census Bureau does not release annual population estimates for CDPs.

The table below contains the following information:

1. The city
2. The state
3. The city population as of April 1, 2010, as enumerated by the 2010 United States Census
4. The city population as of April 1, 2000, as enumerated by the 2010 United States Census
5. The city percent population change from April 1, 2000, to April 1, 2010
6. The city land area as of January 1, 2010
7. The city population density as of April 1, 2010 (residents per land area)
8. The city ANSI INCITS 446-2008 geographic code
9. The city latitude and longitude coordinates

Cities formerly over 100,000 people

The following table lists U.S. cities that, in past censuses, have had populations of at least 100,000 but have since decreased beneath this threshold or have been consolidated with or annexed into a neighboring city.

The table below contains the following information:

1. Name of city
2. Name of state
3. The city population as of July 1, 2013, as estimated by the United States Census Bureau
4. The city's peak population based on highest official enumeration recorded by the Census (and the year of that particular Census)
5. The numeric decline in population from its peak Census count to the most recent Census estimate in 2013.
6. The percent decline in population from its peak Census count to the most recent Census estimate in 2013.
7. Any additional notes of significant importance.
