This is a plain text list of cities in the United States in order from the largest population to the lowest population. These population numbers were last updated October 26th, 2020. Therefore please be advised just in case you are pulling this list well after that date (though we will attempt to keep the list accurate and up to date, you can always check the census site). For your convenience (such as pasting into an excel or whatever program you wish to use) we will remove the population numbers for this section.
In the subsequent section we will include the population numbers in tabular form if that’s what you need. If you are unable to find the list or format that you are looking for, please do not hesitate to contact us. We are always looking to improve TextLists.info.
