<br /> The Northstar cities added 14,376 people over the past decade, which is about five percent of the
<br /> growth in the MSA, as shown in Table 3-9. Ramsey, Elk River, and Big Lake captured the
<br /> majority of population and household growth in the study corridor. Elk River increased the most
<br /> in population and households of any of the corridor communities with 6,527 new residents in
<br /> 2,416 households. Ramsey increased in population by 5,158 people and 2,127 households. Big
<br /> Lake's population and households increased by 3,997 and 1,260, respectively. Coon Rapids is
<br /> the largest of the cities in the corridor with a population of 61,476 people in 2010, but lost
<br /> population despite an increase of 954 households due to declining household size. The older,
<br /> inner ring suburbs in the corridor such as Fridley, Coon Rapids, and Anoka experienced a loss in
<br /> population during the decade, while the more exurban communities grew at rates much higher
<br /> than the MSA.
