Figure 3 <br />shows that the largest segment of the population is in the 40-49 age range which is quite young <br />compared to many other communities in the metropolitan region. It will be important for Ramsey <br />to plan for alternative housing options for these residents as they age so that they can remain in the <br />community. In addition, it will also remain important that Ramsey seek ways to be competitive in <br />retaining younger residents as the data shows the second largest section of residents in the 5-14 <br />age range. <br />city of RAMSEY <br />August 2018 Draft <br />Comprehensive Plan 2040 <br />
