Totals:

2,048,023 |
|
The population of Arizona was 5,130,632 in 2000; in 1990 it was 3,665,228. The total population changed 40.0%. The adherent totals of the religious groups listed above (2,048,023) included 39.9% of the total population in 2000.
However, the change in methodology can distort assessments on growth or decline between 2000 and 2010 for each of these groups. County-level 2000 data using the new methodology are not readily available. ASARB staff has adjusted some 2000 county-level adherent statistics to allow for a more accurate picture on growth or decline. The revised maps and charts are now available on-line at www.usreligioncensus.org for those who are interested in these trends.
