As of July 1, 2016, Kentucky had an estimated population of 4,436,974, which is an increase of 12,363 from the prior year and an increase of 97,607, or 2.2%, since the year 2010. This includes a natural increase since the last census of 73,541 people (that is 346,968 births minus 273,427 deaths) and an increase due to net migration of 26,135 people into the state. [[Immigration to the United States|Immigration]] from outside the United States resulted in a net increase of 40,051 people, and migration within the country produced a net decrease of 13,916 people. {{as of|2015}}, Kentucky's population included about 149,016 foreign-born persons (3.4%).

African-Americans, who were mostly enslaved at the time, made up 25% of Kentucky's population before the [[American Civil War|Civil War]]; they were held and worked primarily in the central [[Bluegrass region]], an area of hemp and tobacco cultivation, as well as raising blooded livestock.

The Hispanic and Asian populations in Kentucky are small but have grown significantly since the late 20th century. Most of Kentucky's Hispanic residents are of [[Mexican Americans|Mexican]] ancestry, while most of Kentucky's Asian residents are of Chinese and Indian heritage.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.britannica.com/place/Kentucky/Plant-and-animal-life#ref279943 | title=Kentucky – Forests, Mammals, Birds &#124; Britannica | access-date=November 19, 2023 | archive-date=November 19, 2023 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231119145244/https://www.britannica.com/place/Kentucky/Plant-and-animal-life#ref279943 | url-status=live }}</ref> There is also a Vietnamese community in Lexington and Louisville, and Vietnamese, Cambodian, and Lao populations in Bowling Green.{{citation needed|date=March 2024}}

===Language===
In 2000, 96% of all residents of the state five years old and older spoke only [[American English|English]] at home, a small decrease from 98% in 1990. Speech patterns in the state generally reflect the first settlers' Virginia backgrounds. South Midland features are best preserved in the mountains, with [[Southern American English|Southern]] in most other areas of Kentucky, but some common to Midland and Southern are widespread. After a vowel, the /r/ may be weak or missing. For instance, ''Coop'' has the vowel of ''put'', but the root rhymes with ''boot''. In southern Kentucky, earthworms are called ''redworms'', a burlap bag is known as a ''tow sack'' or the ''Southern grass sack'', and green beans are called ''snap beans''. In Kentucky English, a young man may ''carry'', not escort, his girlfriend to a party.{{Citation needed|date=January 2024}}

[[Spanish language|Spanish]] is the second-most-spoken language in Kentucky, after English.{{Citation needed|date=January 2024}}
