Description

Join the Coalition of Greater Minnesota Cities at the League of Minnesota Cities Annual Conference on Thursday, June 25 from 7:45-8:45am for our annual breakfast!

Researchers from the Center for Rural Policy and Development (CRPD) will join the CGMC to discuss the State of Rural 2026 report. The State of Rural report, published annually by CRPD, explores economic and demographic data pertaining to rural Minnesota, especially relating to population trends, migration patterns, workforce, and other indicators of economic vitality. The report aims to help inform policy discussions and support prosperity in rural areas of the state.

In addition to sharing highlights from the report, CRPD researchers will explain how cities throughout the state can use the data to inform decision-making and support economic vitality in their communities.
