What stands out

Honolulu County had an estimated population of 998,747 on July 1, 2024, according to the Census Bureau's Population Estimates Program. Since July 2020 that is -1.3 % (-13,660 people); since 2010 it is +4.4 %. Migration is the larger driver since 2020: net migration -22,823 against a natural change (births minus deaths) of +9,107. Among the 5 counties in Hawaii, it ranks 1 by population. Values for 2010–2019 and 2020–2024 come from two estimate vintages benchmarked to different censuses; the 2019→2020 step is partly a rebasing.
