Illinoisans are fleeing, population drops another 100,000
New 2022 state population estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau show #Illinois is once again one of the nation’s biggest losers.
Illinois’ population shrank by more than 104,000 between 2021 and 2022, the third-worst decline in the nation behind only New York and California. That’s similar to last year, when Illinois lost an adjusted 100,000 in population.
In contrast with Illinois’ struggle to keep its residents and attract more in-migration, all of Illinois’ neighboring states except #Michigan managed to grow their populations. Michigan, like Illinois, shrank in 2022, but its losses were comparatively far smaller, just 0.03% of its population.
Illinois was also one of the nation’s biggest losers on a percentage basis. The state lost 0.82% of its 2021 population, the 2nd-most in the nation behind only New York. Louisiana was close behind with a loss of 0.8%.
The #Census data confirms what other population information, including the migration data from the IRS, shows: Illinois’ failed public policies continue to chase residents out of the state.

Illinois’ change in population comes from three major sources: the state’s net natural increase, its international migration and its domestic migration. Combine all three components and you get Illinois’ net population loss of 104,437 in 2022.
The governor’s continued failure to address the state’s highest-in-the-nation property taxes, its worst-in-nation pension crisis, its growing crime, the state’s broken finances, its outlier jobs climate and more – not to mention his draconian #Covid policies of the last two years – continues to drive more residents out of the state.
