How many people live in Arkport, and is it growing?

The Census Bureau estimates that 758 people lived in Arkport on July 1, 2025, down 3.3% since 2020, a steeper fall than New York's (−1.0%). The Census Bureau's yearly estimates start from its own April 2020 base for Arkport, 784, which differs from the 2020 Census count of 745: the estimates follow the place as the estimates program defines it today (its present boundaries, and for a consolidated city-county the area the program assigns it), so the change since 2020 is measured from that base. The 2020-2024 American Community Survey, a five-year sample, puts the population at 897 (±235).

The American Community Survey samples about one household in eight over five years, so every figure is an estimate with a 90% margin of error (shown under each value). A ring marks an estimate whose coefficient of variation is over 40%. A change is called only when the gap between the two periods is larger than their combined 90% margin (the square root of the sum of the two squared margins), the Census Bureau's test.
