North Carolina population trends peer into 2040 projections
North Carolina, 3.6 million in 1940, ranks 11th nationally and first in the Southeast. By 2040, about 12.7 million residents may place NC seventh nationally and fourth in the South. Growth slows from double digits earlier decades, yet adds over 2 million people, reshaping cities, schools, and aging demographics. John Hood of the John Locke Foundation notes shifts in migration, aging, and retirement expectations.
