They are listed included in the Introduction because of their general application. General Assumptions 1. A population of 286,000993..~700 is expected to reside within the metropolitan UGBarca by the year 20!..~00. This is a 2~___959 percent increase from the estimated 2000.t97.7 census population of ~22,500184~300. Since this Metro Plan is desi~d'"~;"~;'~odate ~1~'~ expected population rather than remain static until 20 !500, it can be adjusted periodically as changes in population trends are detected. 2. Based on recent trends, the rate of population growth and the rate of in-migration are projected to decrease. 3. In addition to population growth, increasing household formation rates (i.e., decreasing average household size) will increase the demand for housing. 4. In addition to population growth, increasing labor force participation rates will increase the resident labor force, thereby increasing the demand for employment opportunities. 1-7
