Population Density
Still Water Place in Fort Wayne, Indiana, is a suburban neighborhood with a population density of 2,300-2,600 people per square mile from 2010 to 2022. The study examines population changes during this period.
The neighborhood's population peaked at 524 residents in 2010, followed by a general decline with intermittent increases. A significant decrease occurred between 2019 and 2020, with the population falling from 430 to 344 residents, a 20% reduction.
Following the 2020 decline, the population increased to 396 in 2021 and 434 in 2022, returning to 2018 levels. This recovery suggests renewed interest in the area.
Population density trends reflect these changes. The 2022 density of 2,364.47 people per square mile indicates a return to pre-2020 levels. This density is consistent with a neighborhood of primarily single-family homes with moderate lot sizes.
The estimated 166 housing units for the 2022 population, considering the national average household size of 2.61 persons, suggests a mix of family-oriented households and some smaller or single-occupancy residences.
The neighborhood likely features suburban conveniences and community-oriented living, with access to local schools, parks, and basic shopping amenities. The consistent population density over the years, except for 2020, indicates a stable community with common long-term residency.
Still Water Place demonstrates resilience in its quick recovery post-2020. This recovery may indicate strong community ties or specific attractive features of the neighborhood. Further investigation into the factors contributing to the neighborhood's appeal may be warranted, particularly in the context of urban-to-suburban migration trends observed in many parts of the country during the same period.
