The Lauridsen neighborhood in Port Angeles, Washington, experienced population fluctuations from 2010 to 2022. The population increased overall during this period, with significant yearly variations.
The neighborhood's population peaked in 2017 at 2,168 residents, growing from 1,354 in 2010. Following 2017, a gradual decline occurred, with the 2022 population reaching 1,789 residents.
In 2022, Lauridsen had a population density of 4,304.12 people per square mile, categorizing it as a dense suburban area. This density suggests a neighborhood primarily composed of single-family homes, townhouses, and potentially some low-rise apartment buildings.
The population density fluctuated from 3,055.47 in 2012 to 5,215.95 in 2017, indicating periods of growth and contraction. These changes may be attributed to local economic conditions, housing development projects, or demographic preference shifts.
The estimated 685 housing units for the 2022 population, considering the national average household size of 2.61 persons, suggests a typical household composition. This implies a mix of families, couples, and single residents.
Lauridsen's location within Port Angeles, near Olympic National Park, may influence residents' lifestyle, potentially offering access to outdoor recreational activities.
The population decline since 2017 warrants further investigation. It may indicate changes in local conditions, such as shifts in employment opportunities, housing market dynamics, or broader regional trends. Additional research into local economic factors and urban planning initiatives would be necessary to understand these population changes and their implications for the neighborhood's future development.
