Most and least drawn numbers of 2023

With 156 drawings and five balls each, every number "should" appear about 11.3 times if the machine is fair. The spread below is what fair randomness actually looks like over a single year — a leader several appearances clear of the field, and a tail of numbers that barely showed up.

Powerball's most frequent number in 2023 was 24, drawn 21 times — in 13.5% of the year's drawings. Every number from 1 to 69 came up at least once, with the quietest appearing just 4 times (7). The most common Powerball was 4, with 13 appearances.

None of this predicts anything. A number that led one year has no better chance the next, and the ranking reshuffles completely from year to year — which is exactly what testing the full record against simulated fair draws shows.

Extremes of the year

The lowest-scoring drawing of 2023 came on July 19, 2023, when the five white balls added up to just 65:
