Collect data from US Census 2000 and 2010 and American Community Survey from 2010 to 2014 Gather population, age groups, and incomes from these sources Find trends by comparing data between years Hillsborough Community Profile Adam DiSarro, Intern David K. Maski, Preceptor Purpose • Compile relevant economic and demographic data • Compare Hillsborough to county and surrounding municipalities • Prepare for future trends Significance • Region changes constantly, sometimes unexpectedly • Housing and commuting preferences change along with job locations Methodology Outcomes • Population continues to slowly grow and median age continues to increase • Population of 45 years and older increased by about 44 percent from 2000 to 2010 • Population 44 years and younger decreased by about 14 percent from 2000 to 2010 Conclusions Population has slowly gained while median age has significantly climbed. Much land remains undeveloped but not preserved. Infrastructure and facilities need to accommodate future changes. Acknowledgements Special thanks to Planning Director David K.
