About this chart

Cape Coral, Florida, added 81,528 residents between 2010 and 2025, expanding its city-limit population by 52.7%. Its city-limit count moved from 154,736 in 2010 to 236,264 in 2025. The largest annual change in the displayed series occurred in 2022: 14,284 more residents than the preceding estimate. These estimates describe the incorporated place, rather than its wider metropolitan area.

These figures measure Cape Coral within its Census incorporated-place boundaries, not the population of the surrounding metropolitan area. They are July 1 estimates, combining Vintage 2020 for 2010–2019 and Vintage 2025 for 2020 onward. City boundaries can change, and newer Census vintages revise estimates; a shift in this series cannot be attributed to migration alone. Consolidated-city balances exclude separately incorporated places. The table preserves exact resident counts, while the chart follows the annual sequence.
