U.S. Decennial Census[4]

Ta'u County was first recorded beginning with the 1912 special census. Regular decennial censuses were taken beginning in 1920.[5] Its population zenith was in 1950, with 771 residents. It has since declined to its lowest point since the census began recording, just 358 residents. Manu'a District as a whole has similarly declined in population since that time.
