North Dakota Population To Grow A Bit Between Now and 2025

From the North Dakota Housing Finance Agency via the Minot Daily News:
  • A new housing study predicts North Dakota's population will grow to 840,000 people by 2025
  • That's a 25 percent increase
  • Ten counties in North Dakota's oil country are forecast to grow by 50 percent in the next 13 years
  • The population of Williston and its three-county region is expected to double (Williams, Mountrail, and McKenzie Counties, I assume) 
  • The report says the statewide demand for housing is expected to increase 30 percent by 2025
