Population Change, 1960–2000The population patterns of the 1990s are only a continuation of trends over the last forty years. Population shifted to the metropolitan areas of the Twin Cities, St. Cloud and Rochester, and at an only slightly lesser rate up through central Minnesota, while people left the mostly agricultural counties of the west and south. One exception is Lyon County, in southwestern Minnesota, which grew 12% since 1960, due in part to the presence of a university and a large immigrant population.
