Statistics for my home town of Grundy Center, Iowa.
The Facts:
Population (year 2000): 2,596
Est. population in July 2004: 2,595 (-0.0% change)
Males: 1,199 (46.2%), Females: 1,397 (53.8%)
Land area: 2.5 square miles
Median resident age: 43.8 years
For population 15 years and over in Grundy Center city
Never married: 18.0%
Now married: 64.0%
Separated: 1.5%
Widowed: 10.3%
Divorced: 6.2%
0.7% Foreign born
Population change in the 1990s: +11 (+0.4%)
Analysis:
No one moves in and no one moves out and yet, according to my own observation, there are still new houses and developments going up around town. I believe this to be linked to the divorce rate 6.2%. There are no more people in town but they need twice as many houses to live in.
