Charlotte County’s population increased 5.2% from June 2023 to March 2024. During a Nov. 12 Board of County Commissioners meeting, analysts recommended steps to be considered to prepare as approximately 40,000 more people are projected to call the county home by 2030.
“We have 212,000 people as of March of this year, and by 2030, we think you’re going to be close to 252,000 people,” David Farmer, CEO of county-contracted Metro Forecasting Models, told commissioners. He made the presentation using the Interactive Growth Model analytical tool that shows the county is on pace to permit 4,400 units by the end of the year.
He said the increasing population causes a deterioration of the level of services of the county’s facilities, adding that the county “had 15,000 people show up” over 18 months.
