You may look at the Panasonic ZS line of small (pocket) cameras - small sensor 1/2.3 with 16 megapixels, EVF and a zoom from 25mm to 720mm.
I carry this camera in my shirt pocket almost every day - about $ 500.

With your budget, you have a lot of great choices, among my favorites are; Fuji X100, Canon "G" series, Sony rx 100. Good luck.

Please gimme the names and models of mirrorless cameras that use interchangeable lenses, are in this price range, can be used as a P&S, and are small enough to fit in one's pocket.
Thank you.
Thank you.
The Fuji X-T30, for one. Highly recommend it!

Surprised no one mentioned the Fuji X100T or X100F. Definitely fits in the pocket, although a bit over $1000. I have one, its a great camera, APS sensor, and its Made in Japan.

I just bought the Nikon A1000. It's small, but not as small as the Sony HX99 or HX90. It has a focal range of 24mm-720mm and shoots RAW. It has a small sensor but picture quality is fine, especially in normal lighting conditions. Buffer is a bit slow, but overall I like the camera.

That would be a Lumix DC-ZS70. For a 1" sensor with a 10X zoom I love my DMC-ZS100

I use a Lumix FZ1000 and a FZ80. Wouldn't trade them for any two cameras listed so far. You can buy both and still be under your price.

Seems to be a misunderstanding as to what the poster is actually looking for, is it a fixed lens advanced point & shoot or a compact system camera? Can be a big difference as far as size.
