Profile and Analysis Tiffin Population Projections Projected Growth 2010 2018 (estimate) 2020 2030 100% Growth rate 1,947 3,739 3,894 7,788 125% Growth rate 1,947 3,739 4,380 9,856 150% Growth rate 1,947 3,739 4,867 12,168 175% Growth rate 1,947 3,739 5,354 14,723 Source: ECICOG The above table shows several population projections for Tiffin. Four different scenarios are shown for comparison. The growth rates shown in the table represent the percentage increase per decade (between each census period). In each projection, Tiffin realizes rapid population growth. Based on trends of the last 20 years (high residential growth surrounding the Iowa City metro area, and growth of cities of similar size to Tiffin in the ECICOG Planning Region), and the location of major transportation systems running near the city (Interstates 380 and 80) connecting it to Cedar Rapids, Iowa City and beyond, the population is expected to continue to increase at rates around 150 percent. This is quantified by the number of building permits issued in the city since 2010 and existing platted lots available for development as well as proposed developments currently in the planning phase.
