<H2>Population characteristics - Migration and natural change (2000 - 2006) </H2>
I’ve posted this kind of data before for Latah County, but here it is for the entire State of Idaho.<BR>
The no-growth policies here in Moscow have clearly worked. <BR>
Look who else in Idaho has negative growth. <BR>
Just what you want in a college town, right? <BR>
