About this chart

Denver, Colorado, had a city-limit count 137,601 higher in 2025 than in 2010, a 22.8% change. The latest Census estimate is 740,613 people within city limits, ranking 19 among US incorporated places. The displayed series peaked at 741,591 in 2024, above the latest count. The biggest annual change occurred in 2015: 18,788 more residents than the preceding estimate.

These figures measure Denver 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.
