13 <br /> <br />Employee Migration, Arden Hills <br />The distance and direction in which your employment population commute from, and the trends over <br />time, play a significant role in the ability of your businesses to stay and grow in your community. <br />National trends suggest a reverse migration of people and companies to center cities (i.e. Minneapolis <br />and Saint Paul). These trends also suggest that individuals desire to be closer to work. Trends in the City <br />of Arden Hills from 2010 to 2013 are consistent with the national trends. <br />Understanding where your community’s employees commute from is also helpful when considering <br />where to invest city resources on issues of regional advocacy. These migration trends would encourage <br />increased investments in transportation including 35W, 694, and 35E. <br />Distance/Direction 2010 2013 Change <br />Less than 10 miles 6109 42.1% 5722 45.3% 3.2% <br />10 to 24 miles 6008 41.4% 5216 41.3% -0.1% <br />25 to 50 miles 1331 9.2% 1014 8.0% -1.2% <br />Greater than 50 miles 1075 7.4% 692 5.5% -1.9% <br />Total Employment 14523 <br /> <br />12644 <br /> <br /> <br />Data Sources <br />Employment by Industry – MN DEED Quarterly Census on Employment and Wages (QCEW), Q2 2015 <br />Employee Inflow-Outflow – U.S. Census, 2010 <br />Employee Migration – U.S. Census, 2010 & 2013
