I'm a math geek, so I like statistics. Here is some census info of note.
Roland's population went down 3% from 1324 to 1284
Story City went up 6% from 3228 to 3431.
In Story County cities closest in size to us, Gilbert was up 10% from 987 to 1082, and Slater passed us up in size from 1306 to 1489.
In the closest, similar sized town, Jewell went down 2% from 1239 to 1215.
In other towns of note, McCallsburg went up 5% from 318 to 333 and Zearing went down 10% from 617 to 554.
Without spending a lot of time hitting the net, here are some populations for Roland thru the years: 1880-1098, 1940-791, 1950-687, 1960-748, 1970-810, 1980-1005, 1990-1035, 2000-1324 2010-1284 (what the heck happened to Roland between 1880 and 1950?)
