About this chart

With 307,632 residents in 2025, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, ranked 68 among the US incorporated places in this Census dataset. Its city-limit count moved from 305,351 in 2010 to 307,632 in 2025. The largest annual change in the displayed series occurred in 2017: 3,183 fewer residents than the preceding estimate. These estimates describe the incorporated place, rather than its wider metropolitan area.

These figures measure Pittsburgh 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.
