During the past half~century, the City expanded from a rural <br />community of 6,500 residents to a fully developed first-ring suburb of 34,000 in a major <br />metropolitan area Streets, freeways, utility systems, schools, parks, shopping malls, industrial <br />areas and numerous and varied residential developments have been established in that time, <br /> <br />In the early years of Roseville, young families settled in the suburb. Over time, Roseville's <br />population has aged along with the City, resulting in a City with a growing middle aged and <br />senior population and declining numbers of youngsters. These changes in demographics <br />have planning implications which the Comprehensive Plan addresses. Fewer children means <br />fewer students in the Roseville schools. More seniors means greater need for assisted living <br />facilities and health care dinics. The City must anticipate such demographic shifts to provide <br />adequate services for all residents. <br /> <br />40,000 <br />35,000 <br />30,000 <br /> <br />25,000 <br /> <br />20,000 <br />15,000 <br />10,000 <br />5,000 <br /> <br />Population by Decade - Actual & Projected <br /> <br /> <br />III Population by <br />Decade <br /> <br />Source: Census & <br />1960 1970 1980 1990 2000 201 0 2020 City of Roseville <br /> <br />3 <br />
