Idaho’s Changing Demographics

coverReports from several U.S. agencies document a number of changes in Idaho’s population since 1990.

UI author Priscilla Salant’s Rural Idaho at a Glance uses those numbers to explore key changes: Idaho’s population grew by 29 percent, to almost 1.3 million; people living in metro areas outnumber those in nonmetro counties for the first time in our history. She also identifies 12 counties recognized nationally for recreation potential, some of them already dramatically impacted.

Well illustrated, this large tri-fold publication is for policy makers, people who live in rural places, or who serve rural markets.

Copies cost $2 plus $1.65 for tax, postage, and handling. Order from UI Ag Publications, P.O. Box 442240, Moscow, ID 83844-2240; phone 208-885-7982; fax 208-885- 4648; e-mail agpubs@uidaho.edu.
