Week 3 - Elmhurst by the numbers

Strategic Planning Week Three – Elmhurst by the Numbers
This week the Strategic Planning Committee has been studying census data and other available statistics on Elmhurst. As a starting point we used the community data survey provided in PLA’s Planning for Results as a guide. From these statistics we are compiling a list of summary statements to describe the Elmhurst environment, highlighting what we think is relevant for library planning. We are looking at the following:

Population trends (Numbers of people/ Ages)

Socioeconomic factors (income, poverty levels, employment)

Education levels

Ethnicity/Language
