The bar chart illustrates the number of residents (in millions) living in different regions of America—namely Australia, Asia, and Other—between 2015 and 2020. It also shows the overall total population in America over this time period.
Overall, the total number of residents in America increased steadily from 2015 to 2020. Among the different regions, Asia showed a significant rise in the number of residents, while the population from Australia remained relatively stable and low throughout the years.
In detail, the total number of residents rose from approximately 40 million in 2015 to around 55 million in 2020. The Asian population experienced consistent growth, starting at about 15 million in 2015 and surpassing 25 million by 2020. In contrast, the population from Australia remained under 10 million and showed a slight decline after 2016. The number of residents from ‘Other’ regions initially increased, peaking in 2016 at over 25 million, but then gradually declined to around 20 million by 2020.
To summarise, the population in America grew between 2015 and 2020, primarily driven by an increase in residents from Asia, while other regions either declined or remained steady.
