Shifting population, workforce trends will impact CT’s economy in 2020
Connecticut’s population is just below 3.6 million. Recent (2013-2017) migration patterns are somewhat counterbalancing Connecticut’s aging trend, as more children (ages 17 and under) and working-age residents are moving to the state than are leaving.
However, more college-age and retirement-age residents are leaving than are moving to Connecticut. There is still a large segment of retirement-age population in Connecticut, and they are behind much of the demand for healthcare services.
