The Big Apple has gotten smaller again.

Nearly 78,000 residents fled New York City last year, shrinking its population down to 8.26 million people, according to the latest census estimates released on Thursday and first reported by the New York Times.

In 2022, more than 126,000 New Yorkers moved out of the city.

Between April 2020 and July 2023, which coincided with the height of the COVID pandemic, the city experienced a mass exodus of 550,000 residents, shrinking its population by more than 6%.

The latest concerning decline was contested by city officials, who argued that it did not fully take into account the influx of migrants that have been flooding the city.
