Socioeconomic Profile Population According to the Census, Lakeville’s population was 43,128 persons in 2000. Lakeville was one of the fastest growing municipalities in the region during the 1980s and 1990s. Since most communities north of Lakeville are nearly fully developed, Lakeville will continue to experience growth as the Metro Area furthers its outward expansion. Young families will continue to migrate to Lakeville, creating an increased need for family recreational programs and facilities. The City also expects to retain many of its current residents. As current residents mature, the population will require recreational programs and facilities for all ages. As Lakeville also becomes fully developed, population and employment growth will begin to taper off around 2030. Table 4 shows historic and projected population, household and employment growth from 1980 to 2030. Table 5 displays the historic and projected percentage growth rates for population, household and employment in Lakeville from 1990 to 2030.

Age Distribution As illustrated in Table 6, The 1990 Census and the 2000 Census provide historical figures regarding Lakeville’s population distribution by age category. Lakeville’s residential growth continues to be largely generated by young families. As a result, the community’s age profiles are dominated by children and adolescents younger than 14 years and by adults age 25 to 44. The percentage of the total population in these categories exceeds those of Dakota County and the Seven-County Metro Region. In contrast, Lakeville has fewer young adults 15 to 24 and older adults over 45 compared City of Lakeville, Minnesota Chapter Two 2006 Comprehensive Parks, Trails, & Open Space Plan Page 25
to the Metro Area as a whole. Lakeville is significantly lower in senior population compared to Dakota County and the Metro Area. As the City matures, its age profile will likely become more consistent with the remainder of Dakota County and ultimately, the Metropolitan Area. Lakeville’s projected growth through the next decade will still be primarily comprised of young families. However, the City must be cognizant of the maturation of its existing population and address its changing demographics in its recreational planning. The 1990 Census showed a median age of 27.9 in the City, while the 2000 Census indicated a median age of 31.5. The change in median age illustrates the gradual maturation of the City’s population that will continue through 2010 and beyond.

Tables 7, 8 and 9 show enrollment figures for the three districts from the 2000-2001 school year through the 2004-2005 school year. Official school enrollment numbers are measured in October. Enrollments in the Farmington and Lakeville School Districts have experienced significant increases in student enrollment from 2000 to 2005. The most substantial increases were among the Pre-Kindergarten and 6 th -12 th grades.
