How many people are named Tyerra, and how old are they?
An estimated 173 Americans named Tyerra and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (98% of everyone recorded); the median is 29 years old and half are between 26 and 33. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 155 people named Tyerra (155 women and girls, 0 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 174 born in the U.S. The Census count is 11% below that prediction. Possible reasons: people who give a short form or another name to the Census, and a survival estimate that can run high.
