Population Reporting:
The Graduate and Research Department has provided economic
development assistance to area planners for
the past twenty-four years. The Division was
the nation's first designated "Census Summary
Tape Processing Center", it has been Louisiana's
only Federal-State Cooperative Population Estimates
agency, and it has been one of the area's most
active analysts and disseminators of Bureau
of Economic Analysis data. It also has played
a prominent role in attracting several industries
to Louisiana.
The Division has worked closely
with such agencies as Research for the Greater
Bossier Economic Development Foundation, Northwest
Louisiana Development Center, Coordinating and
Development Corporation, Northwest Louisiana
Tourism/Retirement Commission, and Ruston/Lincoln
Parish Chamber of Commerce on such areas as
tourism and retirement and rural development
among others.
