Total count of people is wrong
It says 331.4 million but the census contains non citizens as per US law the census has to contain all non citizens so it should be changed to 320.5 million

Americans → US-AmericansUS-Americans – The word "American" by it's definition and symantics is inhabitant of Americas, part of the World. Most of USA citizens are Americans, but not all Americans are USA citizens. When the word "American" is being used by default as a definition of USA citizens, that is cultural and geographical appropriation. This article must be renamed to "US-Americans" or "Unitedstatesians" to reflect this difference more precisely. Nick shul (talk) 14:36, 6 June 2026 (UTC)
