A Glimpse at Our Future: Is it Precognition?
No, the staff at the Minnesota State Demographic Center aren’t precognitive. They use data to produce timely, relevant reports for the state’s legislative and executive leadership. The most current report, Demographic Considerations for Long-Range & Strategic Planning, outlines three major demographic trends: the aging population; the tightening workforce; and the diversifying of the population in Minnesota. This fascinating glimpse into the future of these three areas reveal potential challenges and opportunities for policymakers and managers in the coming decades. Although this is a short report, there is plenty to consider; for instance, the aging population in Minnesota is not a one-time shift, but a trend that will endure.
You can find other reports by the Minnesota Sate Demographic Center in the Library’s catalog. The LRL has collected reports on such topics as: Economic Status of Minnesotans: A Chartbook with Data for 17 Cultural Groups (2016), Minnesota on the Move: Migration Patterns & Implications (2015), and The Minnesota Farmer: Demographic Trends and Relevant Laws (which was produced jointly with House Research, 2015). If you wish to do more demographics “time travel,” take a look at our Links to the World: Demographics guide for more sources.
Finally, if you would like further information on this or any other topic, contact a librarian at 651-296-8338, or refdesk@lrl.leg.mn
