Where Data Tells the Story

This map reimagines the size of U.S. states based on their populations. Data is from the Census Bureau, as of 2024.
If sized by population, Alaska would be the third-smallest state (fourth if counting D.C.) in the country.
This is a far cry from its top of the rankings as America’s largest state by area (665,284 sq. miles).
On the other hand, a big gainer from putting people in perspective is Florida, which is 22nd by size, but third by population.
