Abstract

The primary purpose of this publication is to provide leaders and citizens with information about the major social and economic changes affecting the Marshalltown Area. The area includes four counties in central Iowa: Hardin, Marshall, Poweshiek, and Tama. This area (Region 6) has been suggested by the Office for Planning and Programming for planning purposes. This information will assist leaders and citizens in making decisions affecting personal, community, county and regional growth and development. The analysis will focus on the number of inhabitants, rural-urban trends, incorporated places, births, deaths, migration, age structure, dependency ratios, race distribution, density per square mile, employment, income, retail sales, farms, farm income and selected economic characteristics of the area's agriculture. A summary of the major trends during the past decade is also provided.
