<br />Surrounding communities have undergone varied rates of population increase in recent decades, as shown
<br />in Table 2-3. Among cities that have a smaller geographic area that has been developed for many years
<br />(Long Lake, Mound, Spring Park, Tonka Bay, Wayzata) the population increase over the period 1970-
<br />2010 has been relatively small, ranging from 0%-20%, with Spring Park being the anomaly in that it grew
<br />by nearly 54%, due to the construction of many multi-family housing units. Among those cities that have
<br />a larger geographic area approaching township size, the population increase for Independence,
<br />Minnetrista, & Medina was approximately 77 to 122%, with Plymouth and Orono at opposite ends of a
<br />much wider range. While Plymouth more than quadrupled its population over 30 years, Orono’s increased
<br />by only 10%.
