[TIL] Florida had a smaller official population than West Virginia until the 1950 census. In the 2020 census, Florida had just over 12 times the population of West Virginia. - eviltoast

In other terms, West Virginia’s 2020 population size was 8.3% of Florida’s. As someone that grew up in Florida most of their life, I find that the culture has made a pronounced change since my childhood.
