Dakota County’s Communities for a Lifetime Initiative has completed City Profiles for the 11 major cities in Dakota County.
The profiles highlight key components that demonstrate an age-friendly community, including a city’s changing population data, housing performance score, types of housing, transit options, land use, walkability score and other indicators.
