Census Data: One Georgia County Has The Fastest Growing Asian Population In The U.S.

The Census Bureau released it’s 2018 population estimates Thursday, and the country is getting older and more diverse.

Georgia is no different. The median age in Georgia went from 35.3 to 36.9. This was because a majority of counties in Georgia had a median age of 30 or lower compared to the nation where a majority of counties had a median age that was 40 or higher.

And while Georgia is younger than the national average, Luke Rogers, Chief of the Population Estimates Branch at the Census Bureau says Georgia’s population is aging more rapidly. This is in large part because of the baby-boomer generation.
