AUSTIN (KXAN) — Austin is no longer the fourth largest city in Texas, according to finalized population estimates released last month.
The Texas Demographic Center shared its final 2023 Population Estimates report in November, which included population figures for Texas counties and communities for July 1, 2023, and Jan. 1, 2024. When reviewing data compiled for Jan. 1, 2024, TDC reported Fort Worth had edged ahead of Austin and claimed the title of the fourth most populous city in the Lone Star State.
