Rosiclare, Illinois, as of 2022, is classified as a "Low Diversity" community. The city's population is 98% white, with a median income of $51,864. This represents a significant increase in median income over the past decade. The population of Rosiclare in 2022 is 1,375.
From 2013 to 2022, Rosiclare has maintained its status as a "Low Diversity" community. The white population has consistently been the dominant racial group, ranging from 88% to 98%. Minor fluctuations have occurred in other racial groups, with the black population peaking at 7% in 2017 but declining to 0% in 2022. The Hispanic population has shown a slight increase from 1% in 2013 to 2% in 2022.
The median income in Rosiclare has increased substantially over the past decade. It has more than doubled from $22,096 in 2013 to $51,864 in 2022. This economic growth has occurred alongside a slight decline in population, from 1,588 in 2013 to 1,375 in 2022.
The trends observed in Rosiclare are noteworthy. The significant increase in median income without a corresponding increase in racial diversity is unusual. Many areas experiencing rapid economic growth often see an influx of diverse populations. However, Rosiclare has maintained its homogeneous racial composition while improving its economic status.
Based on observed trends, Rosiclare is likely to continue being categorized as a "Low Diversity" community in the near future. The white population has remained consistently high, and there are no strong indicators of imminent demographic shifts. However, continued economic growth could potentially attract more diverse populations in the long term.
If the trend of increasing median income continues, Rosiclare could see further improvements in its residents' financial well-being. This could lead to increased local investment and development, potentially making the city more attractive to new residents.
It is unlikely that Rosiclare will transition into a new demographic category in the immediate future. However, over a longer period, it could slowly move towards becoming a "Transitional Community." This would be particularly true if the slight increase in the Hispanic population continues or accelerates, or if the economic growth begins to attract more diverse residents.
Rosiclare presents a case of significant economic improvement within a demographically stable, low-diversity community. The future challenge may be in maintaining this economic growth while potentially becoming more inclusive and diverse, which could bring new perspectives and opportunities to the city.
