Population change, 2000-2007

The U.S. Census is taken every ten years, but in between those times, governments and other groups relying on data still need up-to-date population counts. To provide that information, the U.S. Census Bureau provides population estimates. Those estimates are produced by the individual states - in Minnesota's case, the State Demographic Center - and are based on a combination of current records and statistical methods that generate a reasonable estimate of the population without having to count every individual. Between the last Census count in 2000 and 2007, the state's population is estimated to have increased 5.7%.
