Population<br />

Population Growth<br />

Our overall population growth was 2.4% from 2001 to 2006 <strong>and</strong> 1.2% from 2006 to<br />

2011 (3.0% for <strong>Lanark</strong> County <strong>and</strong> 0.1% for <strong>Leeds</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Grenville</strong>) (7, 8). Municipalities<br />

located within a horseshoe pattern around the city of Ottawa (North <strong>Grenville</strong>,<br />

Montague, Beckwith, Carleton Place, <strong>and</strong> Mississippi Mills) experienced a much<br />

greater population growth. Municipalities along the St. Lawrence River were either<br />

neutral in population growth or experienced a loss in population (Figure 2).<br />
