PROJECTED 2040 GROWTH FORECASTS Shakopee’s population is projected to stabilize in the coming years as growth continues to be concentrated in the rest of Scott County and the Twin Cities region. Still, by 2040, Shakopee is projected to grow by as much as 25,000 additional residents in approximately 9,000 new households. Employment is projected to grow by as much as 13,000 new jobs. As Shakopee looks to the future, the decisions the community makes about land use, economic development initiatives, transportation projects, and housing policies will influence its rate of growth, future population, and economic conditions.
