Report: Local Population Growth To Continue

The Mid Ohio Regional Planning Commission says central Ohio's population growth is expected to continue for several decades. A new commission report shows the region's population will grow by 500 thousand by the year 2050. The growth will be made up of mostly young adults and people age 65 and older.  The report will be used to help local officials plan for population growth and the demand for certain types of housing.
