Florida 2060: A Population Distribution Scenario for the State of Florida

Our beloved Florida is in the midst of rapid change. The engine of change ispopulation growth--largely attributable to a combination of continued domestic andinternational immigration. The physical manifestation of our population growth is landuse change, and the more rapidly population increases, the more rapidly land usechanges occur. Between now and 2060 the State’s population is projected to morethan double and consequently, without shifts in our policies, the additional landdevoted to urban use will also more than double.
