The 2011 census in Estonia showed a population decline of 5.5% over the last decade. The population fell by 76,000 people to 1,294,236, with 32,000 due to negative natural growth and 22,000 to registered emigration. The age structure shifted towards an older population, with those under 14 declining to 15% from 18% while those over 65 increased to 18% from 15%. However, the working age population from 15-64 remained at 67%. Most areas saw population declines except for Harju county near Tallinn and Tartu county, which both saw small increases.

The document provides information from the 2010 Census on population growth and demographic changes in the Charlotte region. Some key points:
- The population of the Metrolina region grew by 29% between 2000-2010 to over 2 million.
- Charlotte grew by 35% in the last decade, with almost half the growth occurring outside the I-485 beltway.
- Areas outside the city center like Southwest, South, North and Northeast Charlotte saw the largest population gains.
- The Hispanic population in Charlotte more than doubled to almost 96,000 between 2000-2010.
City of Asheville Housing Needs AssessmentGordon Smith
The focus of this analysis is to assess the market characteristics of, and to determine the housing needs for the city of Asheville, North Carolina. To accomplish this task, Bowen National Research evaluated various socio-economic characteristics, inventoried and analyzed the housing supply (rental and owner/for-sale product), conducted stakeholder interviews, evaluated special needs populations and provided housing gap estimates to help identify the housing needs of the city.
To provide a base of comparison, various metrics of Asheville were compared with overall four-county region that includes the counties of Buncombe, Henderson, Madison and Transylvania. A detailed comparison of the city of Asheville in relation with four subject counties is provided in the region analysis portion of the Asheville Overall Housing Needs Assessment.
This document discusses employment trends and outcomes for young people in the United States and Illinois, with a focus on high school dropouts. It finds that employment rates for 16-29 year olds declined significantly from 2007-2010, especially for those without a high school diploma. Employment and earnings are strongly tied to educational attainment, with dropouts faring the worst across many metrics like employment rates, annual earnings and incarceration rates. Improving graduation rates and re-engaging dropouts are recommended as smart investments to improve labor market outcomes.

The Estonian Economy, No. 1, 10 March 2011Swedbank
The unemployment rate in Estonia fell to 13.6% in the fourth quarter of 2010, down from a peak of 19.8% in early 2009, as employment grew by 2.1%. However, further rapid improvement in unemployment is limited by structural imbalances in the labor market such as a mismatch of skills and lack of mobility. While unemployment is decreasing, long-term unemployment is still rising annually, increasing social costs. Employment increased the most in sectors such as transportation, construction, and domestic trade.

This document provides an overview of population trends in Australia and Victoria, with a focus on how COVID-19 has impacted migration patterns and population growth. It notes that Australia's population growth was just 0.2% in 2020-21, the lowest in over a century, due to border closures reducing net overseas migration. Victoria saw its first population decline in over 100 years, with declines in both interstate and overseas migration. The document then discusses the importance of population data and forecasts for community infrastructure planning, providing the example of planning a new library for Niddrie.
The document discusses the economic challenges of an aging population in Hong Kong. It notes that Hong Kong's population is aging rapidly due to decreased birth rates and increased life expectancy. This aging population will place significant burdens on social welfare and medical systems as expenditures increase. It will also slow economic growth by decreasing the proportion of working individuals and reducing tax revenue from salaries. Solutions to address these challenges are debated.
The document provides demographic, economic, and labor market data and analysis for Floyd County, Indiana.

Regarding the economy, the number of establishments doubled from 2000-2011 primarily through new business formation. The top five industries were government, manufacturing, healthcare, retail, and accommodation/food services, employing over 59% of workers. Government and healthcare added jobs while manufacturing and retail lost jobs from 2002-2013.
The total population of Floyd County increased by 8% between 2000 and 2013, driven by natural increase and domestic migration. The population is aging as the proportion of residents under 50 is declining. While remaining mostly white, racial and ethnic diversity is growing slowly. Educational attainment improved with more adults holding college degrees.
Estimating Needs of Seminole County, FLAndrew Pagano
Seminole County, Florida has experienced significant population growth over the last several decades, doubling in population between 1940 and 1960, and surging over 300% between 1980 and 1990. Several models were used to project the 2010 population but most underestimated the growth, with the best match being a polynomial model. The county also saw a boom and bust in the housing market between 2003 and 2009. Projections estimate an unmet housing demand of over 66,000 units between 2011-2020 to meet needs.
