The tables in these web pages provide facts which describe the social terrain for each county in South Dakota.  They also provide information on trends which describe changes in the social landscape.  Because population changes may produce social problems which need to be addressed, community leaders must know the trends occurring in the state and in their communities.  Indeed, trend setters, community leaders, and citizens can find in this report much of the information they need to shape new and positive social, economic, and demographic trends in their communities.
