Abstract | This Kids Count report assembles some of the indicators that describe the economic environment of Minnesota children and families. The report is intended to serve as a resource for policymakers at the city, county, and state levels, as well as community advocates, parents, and those who work with children. Section 1 of the report presents statistical findings for the following indicators for the state as a whole and for 11 economic development regions: (1) children and adults living in poverty; (2) per capita personal income; (3) minimum family income needed; (4) unemployment rate; (5) ratio of dependents to workers; (6) major industries and projected growth; (7) ratio of government payments to wages and salaries; (8) children's services spending per capita; and (9) revenue-raising capacity. Section 2 is organized by region and outlines trends in each indicator from the middle to the late 1990s. The report concludes with information on data sources and definitions. (KB) |
