The village has experienced a significant population decline from 887 residents in 2010 to 639 in 2022. The median income in 2022 was $45,099, showing moderate fluctuations over the years.
Throughout the analyzed period, Beaverville has maintained its status as a "Low Diversity" community. The white population has remained above 75% throughout, ranging from 76% in 2013 to 95% in 2022. Minor fluctuations in other racial groups have occurred, but none significant enough to shift the village into a different diversity category.
The Black population decreased from 18% in 2015 to nearly 0% by 2017, before stabilizing around 2% in recent years. The Hispanic population has remained relatively stable, between 2-5% throughout the period.
The median income has shown variability, ranging from a low of $35,569 in 2015 to a high of $51,020 in 2018. The lowest median income coincided with the highest percentage of Black residents in 2015, while the highest median income occurred when the community was becoming increasingly homogeneous. The population decline does not show a clear correlation with income trends.
Based on observed trends, Beaverville is likely to continue being categorized as a "Low Diversity" community in the near future. The white population percentage has been increasing, while other racial groups have remained minimal or decreased. Economically, the median income appears to have stabilized around $45,000 in recent years.
There is a small possibility that Beaverville could transition into a "Transitional Community" if there is an influx of residents from diverse backgrounds. However, given current trends, this seems unlikely in the immediate future without significant external factors influencing migration patterns.
In conclusion, Beaverville is a small, predominantly white community facing challenges of population decline and income fluctuations. Its demographic makeup has remained relatively stable in terms of diversity categories, despite some internal shifts in specific racial group percentages. The community's future will likely depend on its ability to attract and retain residents.
