LAS CRUCES â Las Cruces is still growing, albeit slowly, and has earned a spot on the Top 300 cities list, according the U.S. Census Bureau. Las Cruces now has an approximate population of 101,408. Thatâs just a bit more than 101,378 the Census Bureau estimated a year ago. But what is surprising to some longtime residents is that Las Cruces is one of the 300 largest cities in the U.S. The cityâs population now ranks Las Cruces 294 out of 752 U.S. cities that have populations of 50,000 residents or more. There are more than 19,000 communities in the United States that are designated as cities, towns or villages, according to the National League of Cities.
