Population Change, 1960-2000

Housing Built Before 1940

Older housing predominates in counties where declining populations, lower incomes and slower economic activity results in less demand for new housing. The percent of housing built before 1940 is one factor used in calculating the state’s local government aid to cities and counties. In many counties in western and southwestern Minnesota, upwards of half the housing stock was built before 1940.
