How many people are named Korry, and how old are they?
An estimated 347 Americans named Korry and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (93% of everyone recorded); the median is 40 years old and half are between 33 and 49. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 437 people named Korry (89 women and girls, 348 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 354 born in the U.S. The Census count is 23% above that prediction. Possible reasons: the Census counts people born abroad, whom SSA’s files leave out, and it records the name people give, which SSA may have recorded under another spelling or as part of a compound name.
