Analysis Area Demographics
<br />Table 1 identifies anticipated growth in population, households, and employment for the 13 cities that
<br />comprise the analysis area. Combined statistics, provided by Metropolitan Council System Statements
<br />for inclusion in Comprehensive Plans and the State Demographer's projections, suggest an increase in
<br />population of 75,355, the addition of 31,938 households, and 30,019 more jobs could occur by 2040.
<br />Figure 2 depicts the study area, along with development and redevelopment areas, and household
<br />growth to more clearly understand the growth context that should be carefully considered through the
<br />decision -making process for the future of the regional transportation system. By any measure this is a
<br />rapidly urbanizing area, and transportation challenges will result alongside this growth.
