1 | P a g e 2012 DEMOGRAPHIC STATE OF THE STATE REPORT OKLAHOMA STATE AND COUNTY POPULATION PROJECTIONS THROUGH 2075 Steve Barker, MBA Sr. Research Analyst/Program Manager Policy, Research and Economic Analysis Division Oklahoma Department of Commerce 2 | P a g e Executive Summary Oklahoma’s population is projected to top 5 million by the time the state celebrates its 150th birthday. By the 2020 Census, Oklahoma’s population will top 4 million By the mid 2050s, Oklahoma’s population will top 5 million By 2075, Oklahoma’s population will top 5.5 million Oklahoma’s population is forecast to grow at an average annual rate of 0.73% over the next 65 years, equivalent to the US Census Bureau’s most recent national growth forecasts through 2050. The Census Bureau does not have state level population forecasts. 5,560,007 1,657,155 2,028,283 2,396,040 2,336,434 2,233,351 2,328,284 2,559,229 3,025,290 3,145,585 3,450,654 3,751,351 0 1,000,000 2,000,000 3,000,000 4,000,000 5,000,000 6,000,000 1910 1915 1920 1925 1930 1935 1940 1945 1950 1955 1960 1965 1970 1975 1980 1985 1990 1995 2000 2005 2010 2015 2020 2025 2030 2035 2040 2045 2050 2055 2060 2065 2070 2075 Oklahoma: Statewide Population 2012 to 2075 Forecast Based on Sum of Individual County Forecasts Oklahoma Annual Estimates 1960‐2011 (Source: US Census Bureau, Population Estimates Division) Oklahoma Forecast 2012‐2075 (Source: Oklahoma Department of Commerce) Oklahoma Decennial Census 1910‐2010 (Source: US Census Bureau, Decennial Census) 3 | P a g e Counties surrounding present day Tulsa and Oklahoma City metro areas are forecast to see substantial population growth. In 2010, the 14 counties currently included in the Tulsa and Oklahoma City MSAs combined to represent 58.4% of the state’s total population but by 2075, those same 14 counties are forecast to represent 64.2% of the state’s total population. Tulsa and Oklahoma counties alone will combine to represent 35.6% of the state’s population. 2010 Population for Counties That Make Up Present Day Tulsa and OKC MSAs Creek 69,967 Canadian 115,541 Okmulgee 40,069 Cleveland 255,755 Osage 47,472 Grady 52,431 Pawnee 16,577 Lincoln 34,273 Rogers 86,905 Logan 41,848 Tulsa 603,403 McClain 34,506 Wagoner 73,085 Oklahoma 718,633 Total Tulsa MSA 937,478 Total OKC MSA 1,252,987 Percentage of Statewide total 25.0% 33.4% Source: US Census Bureau, Decennial Census 2075 Population Forecast for Counties That Make Up Present Day Tulsa and OKC MSAs Creek 109,751 Canadian 232,316 Okmulgee 44,406 Cleveland 521,368 Osage 71,916 Grady 82,549 Pawnee 24,929 Lincoln 55,400 Rogers 173,122 Logan 69,711 Tulsa 934,215 McClain 61,698 Wagoner 144,991 Oklahoma 1,042,525 Total Tulsa MSA 1,503,330 Total OKC MSA 2,065,568 Percentage of Statewide total 27.0% 37.2% Source: Oklahoma Department of Commerce 4 | P a g e There are 25 counties in Oklahoma forecast to experience population decline over the next 65 years. Many of these counties, mostly in western Oklahoma, experienced their peak population levels in 1910, shortly after Oklahoma achieved statehood. While these counties are expected to continue to experience population declines, the rate of decline is expected to slow over the coming decades.

For simplicity, the basic demographic formulas used in this report are as follows: Population in the current year + Births in the current year ‐ Deaths in the current year + Net migration Equals Population projection for the next year Population projection for the next year + estimated births in the current year, based on fertility rates and # of women of child bearing age ‐ Deaths in the current year + Net migration Equals Population projection for the following year What population groups are included in projections All population figures cited in this report, whether historic counts or forward looking projections, include the following: All civilian residents living within the state Members of the US Armed Forces stationed within Oklahoma All persons incarcerated in the state of Oklahoma, including out of state prisoners held at private prisons located within the state 6 | P a g e Projection of births and fertility rates This report uses statewide total fertility rates from Table S1301 of the US Census Bureau’s 2006‐2010 American Community Survey. Based on survey responses gathered over 5 years, Table S1301 reports the rate of births per 1,000 women by three age categories. Table S1301 indicates Oklahoma’s rate of women with births in the past 12 months (an annual time frame) were: Among women aged 15‐19 there were 37 births per 1,000 women Among women aged 20‐34 there were 113 births per 1,000 women Among women aged 35‐49, there were 15 births per 1,000 women A summary of Table S1301 is included in Appendix 1. While birth rates have been generally declining across the United States and in Oklahoma for some time, that rate of decline has also been slowing in recent years. Further, the state’s growing Hispanic population typically has a higher birth rate than the rate shown for the population in total. This report does not project populations by race or ethnicity, but it is assumed that the state’s Hispanic population will continue to grow. As the percentage of Hispanics in Oklahoma increases, it is also assumed that the rate of decline in the state’s overall birth rate will slow or possibly reverse. Because of the uncertainty surrounding the longer term direction for birth rates in Oklahoma, the population projections in this report assume that the overall birth rate will remain constant over the longer term. Projection of deaths United States survival rates by single age and gender for 2007 were obtained from the US Centers for Disease Control at http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvsr/nvsr59/nvsr59_09.pdf and are included in Appendix 2. National survival rates were used to calculate Oklahoma life expectancy for each age group over the next 65 years. Those survival rates are not likely to remain static with improvements in health care technology and Oklahoma embarking on efforts like smoking reduction programs and diabetes awareness efforts to change the state’s overall health characteristics. However, the rapid onset of other health concerns, like the national epidemic of obesity, could also adversely impact the state’s longer term life expectancy figures. Because of the difficulty in forecasting future changes in life expectancy, Oklahoma’s age specific survival rates are assumed to remain constant for the purposes of the populations projections contained within this report. 7 | P a g e Projection of net migration As difficult as the previous variables are to project, migration is likely even more difficult to gauge. As the state’s previous population projections report stated following the release of the 2000 Census results, “The only consistency in Oklahoma’s recent migration history has been its unpredictability.” How volatile is this component of population growth? Between 1970 and 1983, Oklahoma’s overall population growth rate grew at a heated pace, reaching peak annual growth of 3.6% in 1982. Some less populated counties in eastern Oklahoma, driven in part by new oil discoveries and well construction, experienced double digit annual percentage growth. Then by 1987 the state’s annual population growth rate dropped to ‐1.3% and some of those same double digit growth counties were showing nearly double digit declines. Appendix 3 shows more detailed information about the history of Oklahoma’s components of population change, including net migration figures. Between 1960 and 2011, Oklahoma’s population gain due to net migration averaged slightly over 10,000 people annually, with swings ranging from a gain of 80,500 in 1982 to a decline of 61,000 in 1987. Ignoring the volatility found in the 1970s and 1980s, and limiting net migration to the 1990s and 2000s, Oklahoma’s average annual net migration gain was just under 15,000. For this analysis, the state’s annual population growth figure has been assumed to run at a consistent rate of adding 15,000 people annually. County population projections County population projections were obtained using a more generalized process than the statewide approach already outlined above. Linear regression trendline formulas, based on population patterns from 1960 to 2011, were deemed sufficient to develop county population projections for 64 of Oklahoma’s 77 counties. For the remaining 13 counties, straight linear regression formulas yielded unrealistic population levels and another option needed to be used. Linear models were judged to be insufficient for Alfalfa, Cimarron, Dewey, Ellis, Grant, Greer, Harmon, Harper, Kiowa, Roger Mills, Tillman, Washita and Woods counties. For these counties, a curved, or power, trendline was judged to be a better fit. Statistically, trendline formulas have a measure of ‘fit’ known as the r‐squared value. The closer the r‐squared value is to a value of one, the better the formula matches up with actual population figures. Going one step further, the higher the r‐squared value, the better the assumed predictability of future values. This report includes both the trendline formula used for each county’s population, plus the associated r‐squared value as a measure of how well the formula fits the historic population levels and how well the formula might predict future populations, all other things being held constant. 8 | P a g e Matching up the two methodologies Statewide estimates have been developed using two different methods, each arriving at a similar conclusion before balancing. With each method acting as a comparative “check” against the other, it is believed these estimates are as accurate as possible, excluding any unforeseen changes in economic or political condition. When the Census Bureau develops annual population estimates based on birth, death and migration data, they encounter situations where the sum of the parts doesn’t exactly equal the expected whole. To resolve the issue, they use a balancing figure that effectively serves as a “margin of error” within their birth, death and migration figures. This report used a similar approach to unify the results of the statewide methodology with the county level methodology. Summing county level population projections yielded a population total that was comfortably close to the state level population projections, but there was a small degree of difference that necessitated a slight population adjustment at the statewide level. Over the course of the 65 years between 2010 and 2075, the required adjustment averaged 0.2% of each year’s total population. This was deemed an acceptable range of variation and was added into the statewide population total for balancing purposes. 9 | P a g e Oklahoma Statewide Oklahoma’s statewide population projection was built using the sum of population projections for all 77 counties. Annual growth rates are forecast to average 0.73%. This is similar to the state’s average annual growth rate of 0.80% over the last three decades, and equivalent to the US Census Bureau’s forecast for the national growth rate through 2050.

This forecast was developed using a linear regression trendline based on the county’s population change between 1960 and 2010. The regression formula appears to have a strong degree of fit, with only limited year to year variation from forecasts expected.

Those inmates represented approximately one sixth of the county’s population before being transferred to other facilities. Efforts to reopen the prison continue but are uncertain at this point. Population forecasts for Blaine County assume the prison remains closed. There is a high level of long term uncertainty associated with projections for Blaine County.

A linear regression trendline based on population patterns over the last 50 years indicates that this flat rate of growth will continue between now and 2075, growing at an average annual rate of 0.06%. While the exact population counts from year to year may show variation up and down from these projections, the population as a whole is expected to remain relatively stable.

A linear regression formula based on the county’s population data from 1960 to 2010 shows a lower degree of fit, but that is largely due to a strong population growth spurt followed by a sharp population decline during the 1980s. Removing that one‐time peak would result in a significantly improved overall fit for the regression formula. Some year to year variation from forecasts is expected.

The level of fit for the county’s linear regression trendline is relatively strong, but subject to some volatility. However, even after accounting for high growth rates experienced in the 1980s, the long term trend has been for a slow population decline overall.

In 2010, the 14 counties currently included in the Tulsa and Oklahoma City MSAs combined to represent 58.4% of the state’s total population but by 2075, those same 14 counties are forecast to represent 64.2% of the state’s total population. Tulsa and Oklahoma counties alone will combine to represent 35.6% of the state’s population. 2010 Population for Counties That Make Up Present Day Tulsa and OKC MSAs Creek 69,967 Canadian 115,541 Okmulgee 40,069 Cleveland 255,755 Osage 47,472 Grady 52,431 Pawnee 16,577 Lincoln 34,273 Rogers 86,905 Logan 41,848 Tulsa 603,403 McClain 34,506 Wagoner 73,085 Oklahoma 718,633 Total Tulsa MSA 937,478 Total OKC MSA 1,252,987 Percentage of Statewide total 25.0% 33.4% Source: US Census Bureau, Decennial Census 2075 Population Forecast for Counties That Make Up Present Day Tulsa and OKC MSAs Creek 109,751 Canadian 232,316 Okmulgee 44,406 Cleveland 521,368 Osage 71,916 Grady 82,549 Pawnee 24,929 Lincoln 55,400 Rogers 173,122 Logan 69,711 Tulsa 934,215 McClain 61,698 Wagoner 144,991 Oklahoma 1,042,525 Total Tulsa MSA 1,503,330 Total OKC MSA 2,065,568 Percentage of Statewide total 27.0% 37.2% Source: Oklahoma Department of Commerce 4 | P a g e There are 25 counties in Oklahoma forecast to experience population decline over the next 65 years. Many of these counties, mostly in western Oklahoma, experienced their peak population levels in 1910, shortly after Oklahoma achieved statehood.

For simplicity, the basic demographic formulas used in this report are as follows: Population in the current year + Births in the current year ‐ Deaths in the current year + Net migration Equals Population projection for the next year Population projection for the next year + estimated births in the current year, based on fertility rates and # of women of child bearing age ‐ Deaths in the current year + Net migration Equals Population projection for the following year What population groups are included in projections All population figures cited in this report, whether historic counts or forward looking projections, include the following: All civilian residents living within the state Members of the US Armed Forces stationed within Oklahoma All persons incarcerated in the state of Oklahoma, including out of state prisoners held at private prisons located within the state 6 | P a g e Projection of births and fertility rates This report uses statewide total fertility rates from Table S1301 of the US Census Bureau’s 2006‐2010 American Community Survey. Based on survey responses gathered over 5 years, Table S1301 reports the rate of births per 1,000 women by three age categories. Table S1301 indicates Oklahoma’s rate of women with births in the past 12 months (an annual time frame) were: Among women aged 15‐19 there were 37 births per 1,000 women Among women aged 20‐34 there were 113 births per 1,000 women Among women aged 35‐49, there were 15 births per 1,000 women A summary of Table S1301 is included in Appendix 1. While birth rates have been generally declining across the United States and in Oklahoma for some time, that rate of decline has also been slowing in recent years. Further, the state’s growing Hispanic population typically has a higher birth rate than the rate shown for the population in total. This report does not project populations by race or ethnicity, but it is assumed that the state’s Hispanic population will continue to grow. As the percentage of Hispanics in Oklahoma increases, it is also assumed that the rate of decline in the state’s overall birth rate will slow or possibly reverse. Because of the uncertainty surrounding the longer term direction for birth rates in Oklahoma, the population projections in this report assume that the overall birth rate will remain constant over the longer term. Projection of deaths United States survival rates by single age and gender for 2007 were obtained from the US Centers for Disease Control at http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvsr/nvsr59/nvsr59_09.pdf and are included in Appendix 2. National survival rates were used to calculate Oklahoma life expectancy for each age group over the next 65 years. Those survival rates are not likely to remain static with improvements in health care technology and Oklahoma embarking on efforts like smoking reduction programs and diabetes awareness efforts to change the state’s overall health characteristics. However, the rapid onset of other health concerns, like the national epidemic of obesity, could also adversely impact the state’s longer term life expectancy figures. Because of the difficulty in forecasting future changes in life expectancy, Oklahoma’s age specific survival rates are assumed to remain constant for the purposes of the populations projections contained within this report. 7 | P a g e Projection of net migration As difficult as the previous variables are to project, migration is likely even more difficult to gauge. As the state’s previous population projections report stated following the release of the 2000 Census results, “The only consistency in Oklahoma’s recent migration history has been its unpredictability.” How volatile is this component of population growth? Between 1970 and 1983, Oklahoma’s overall population growth rate grew at a heated pace, reaching peak annual growth of 3.6% in 1982. Some less populated counties in eastern Oklahoma, driven in part by new oil discoveries and well construction, experienced double digit annual percentage growth. Then by 1987 the state’s annual population growth rate dropped to ‐1.3% and some of those same double digit growth counties were showing nearly double digit declines. Appendix 3 shows more detailed information about the history of Oklahoma’s components of population change, including net migration figures. Between 1960 and 2011, Oklahoma’s population gain due to net migration averaged slightly over 10,000 people annually, with swings ranging from a gain of 80,500 in 1982 to a decline of 61,000 in 1987. Ignoring the volatility found in the 1970s and 1980s, and limiting net migration to the 1990s and 2000s, Oklahoma’s average annual net migration gain was just under 15,000. For this analysis, the state’s annual population growth figure has been assumed to run at a consistent rate of adding 15,000 people annually. County population projections County population projections were obtained using a more generalized process than the statewide approach already outlined above. Linear regression trendline formulas, based on population patterns from 1960 to 2011, were deemed sufficient to develop county population projections for 64 of Oklahoma’s 77 counties. For the remaining 13 counties, straight linear regression formulas yielded unrealistic population levels and another option needed to be used. Linear models were judged to be insufficient for Alfalfa, Cimarron, Dewey, Ellis, Grant, Greer, Harmon, Harper, Kiowa, Roger Mills, Tillman, Washita and Woods counties. For these counties, a curved, or power, trendline was judged to be a better fit. Statistically, trendline formulas have a measure of ‘fit’ known as the r‐squared value. The closer the r‐squared value is to a value of one, the better the formula matches up with actual population figures. Going one step further, the higher the r‐squared value, the better the assumed predictability of future values. This report includes both the trendline formula used for each county’s population, plus the associated r‐squared value as a measure of how well the formula fits the historic population levels and how well the formula might predict future populations, all other things being held constant. 8 | P a g e Matching up the two methodologies Statewide estimates have been developed using two different methods, each arriving at a similar conclusion before balancing. With each method acting as a comparative “check” against the other, it is believed these estimates are as accurate as possible, excluding any unforeseen changes in economic or political condition. When the Census Bureau develops annual population estimates based on birth, death and migration data, they encounter situations where the sum of the parts doesn’t exactly equal the expected whole. To resolve the issue, they use a balancing figure that effectively serves as a “margin of error” within their birth, death and migration figures. This report used a similar approach to unify the results of the statewide methodology with the county level methodology. Summing county level population projections yielded a population total that was comfortably close to the state level population projections, but there was a small degree of difference that necessitated a slight population adjustment at the statewide level. Over the course of the 65 years between 2010 and 2075, the required adjustment averaged 0.2% of each year’s total population. This was deemed an acceptable range of variation and was added into the statewide population total for balancing purposes. 9 | P a g e Oklahoma Statewide Oklahoma’s statewide population projection was built using the sum of population projections for all 77 counties. Annual growth rates are forecast to average 0.73%. This is similar to the state’s average annual growth rate of 0.80% over the last three decades, and equivalent to the US Census Bureau’s forecast for the national growth rate through 2050.

A linear regression formula based on the county’s population data from 1960 to 2010 shows a lower degree of fit, but that is largely due to a strong population growth spurt followed by a sharp population decline during the 1980s. Removing that one‐time peak would result in a significantly improved overall fit for the regression formula. Some year to year variation from forecasts is expected.

This is slightly below the ‐0.18% average annual rate of decline indicated by county population patterns since 1960. The level of fit for the county’s linear regression trendline is relatively strong, but subject to some volatility. However, even after accounting for high growth rates experienced in the 1980s, the long term trend has been for a slow population decline overall. Some year to year variation in the population forecasts can be expected. Decennial Census population counts Kay 1910 26,999 1960 51,042 2010 46,562 1920 34,9 |
