Portage County
July 1, 2002 Population

The Department of Health Services, Bureau of Health Information and Policy, produces mid-year population estimates for the counties and state of Wisconsin by age and sex categories for non-Census years. Estimates are used to calculate population-based health statistics. The estimates are compared to the U.S. Census Bureau's 2000 base estimates, which reflect Census Bureau modifications to the Census 2000 population counts. The 2000 base estimates differ from the Census counts for just seven Wisconsin counties: Adams, Marquette, Oconto, Sheboygan, Washington, Waupaca, and Waushara.
