Adams County ranks as second fastest growing county on the Front Range

Posted on March 24th, 2010 by Tony of www.tonysrants.com I found this very interesting. According to the latest Census Bureau numbers, Adams County now ranks as thesecond fasting growing county on the Front Range and only trails Denver County. Douglas and Weld Counties haverecently been the trendsetters but we knocked them down a notch.

The Census Bureau‟s numbers put Adams County with a 2009 population of 440,994. That ranks as the thi

rd mostpopulous county in the area second to Denver and Jefferson.

Thornton‟s population at the end of the second quarter in 2009 was estimated to be at 120,471. In 2000 it was „only‟

82,384 which shows the astounding growth we have seen.With all of these people, will it translate to more clout for the north area with the state and other Front Range cities?We will see.

Thornton has finally begun to assert itself in the last couple of years or so and that is a good thing. We shouldn‟t

have to play second fiddle to anyone.
