The Eden Prairie Chamber of Commerce was proud to host an in-depth community conversation featuring Minnesota State Demographer Susan Brower, which was recently highlighted by Eden Prairie Local News. The article captures key insights from this important program held at the Eden Prairie Schools’ Valley View campus, where local leaders, business professionals, and community members gathered to learn more about the trends shaping both Eden Prairie and the state of Minnesota.
During the presentation, Brower shared valuable data on shifting population patterns, including slowing population growth, changing migration trends, rising educational attainment levels, and the continued growth of diversity within the community. Attendees gained a clearer understanding of how these trends impact workforce development, housing, infrastructure, education, and long-term planning for local businesses and organizations.
The article also highlights how Eden Prairie compares to surrounding communities, noting steady, though slower, growth in recent years and the city’s strong educational profile. It explores how demographic shifts at the state and national levels are influencing local planning, economic development, and community services.
