A recent survey has found that several South Dakota cities are experiencing significant growth and economic prosperity. Harrisburg, Tea, and Box Elder were identified as the top three fastest-growing cities in the state.
Harrisburg, located just south of Sioux Falls, has seen a population increase of over 50% since the last census in 2010. The city has been expanding rapidly with new housing developments and businesses setting up shop in the area. Tea, a small town just outside of Sioux Falls, has also experienced a surge in population, with many new families choosing to settle there.
Box Elder, located near Rapid City, was another standout in the survey, with a growth rate of nearly 40%. The city has seen significant development in recent years, including the construction of new commercial and residential buildings.
These booming cities are not only attracting new residents, but also new businesses looking to take advantage of the growing population and economic opportunities in the area. With a lower cost of living compared to larger urban centers, these cities are becoming attractive destinations for individuals and families looking to make a fresh start.
Overall, the survey reflects the ongoing trend of urbanization and growth in South Dakota, with smaller cities and towns experiencing significant increases in population and economic activity. This bodes well for the state’s economy and future development, as more people choose to call these thriving communities home.
