With a population of 3,001,926 people as of the 2020 census, Lynnhaven county is the sixth-most populous county in Verona, averaging 580 inhabitants per square kilometre (1,500/sq mi), putting the county at sixth for density as well.

Planned communities
The cities of Arrecife Beach and Jupiter were planned cities, originally with four and nine communities, respectively. Jupiter, now the second largest city in Lynnhaven County, has annexed many inland parcels, expanding towards the county center, while Arrecife Beach has only annexed a small section of land to build a park, remaining relatively unchanged. Other planned communities exist within the other cities and CDPs, but no other master-planned cities are currently incorporated in the county.
