Santa Rosa County surprisingly hasn’t grown since 2006 as much as Escambia County—with only 7,198 more people. It too has seen either declined or only showed marginal improvement in the 35-59 age brackets.
35 to 44 years: -429

55 to 59 years:+18

The biggest gains are:
Under 5 years: 1,283
65 to 74 years: 1,251
20 to 24 years: 1,184

Santa Rosa County’s growth happened pre-Ivan. Before 2005, Santa Rosa jumped 20,533 people…while Escambia had only 4,449 more people over those same four years.
