The population listed in the 2000 U.S. Census mistakenly excluded the population of the East Moline Correctional Center and listed it as within the village of Oak Grove apparently mistaking Hillcrest Road in Oak Grove as the road of the same name where the prison is located in East Moline.[12] The actual count for 2000 increased from 20,333[13] to 21,431[12] after including the prison population of 1,098. The U.S. Census Bureau did not adjust the racial and ethnic figures for the 2000 Census listed below.
