Iowa population rebound ends decade of outflow in 1987
Census figures revised show Iowa lost 91,000 residents from 1980 to 1987 while 1988 added about 11,000 people. Officials say exodus slowed late 1987 as the economy recovered and population is expected to resume slow growth through the 1990s with projections near 2,855,000 by 1990 and higher by 2000.
