Burleigh County on a steady upward population<br />

trend. This is unusual for many local<br />

cities. These results are the sign of a strong,<br />

growing area with a vibrant economy.<br />

Development Department estimates 62,150<br />

people within Bismarck and 80,700 to be the<br />

final count for all of Burleigh County.<br />

The Census Bureau is publicizing the<br />

2010 census. It is promoting a complete<br />

count and will be reminding the community<br />

as the census approaches. Do your part to<br />

make the 2010 Census a resounding success!<br />

It comes just once every 10 years!<br />
