Comprehensive Plan Introductory Element
Introduction
This Introductory Element provides much of the information and data used in the Indian River
County Comprehensive Plan. As such, this element provides background information concerning
the historical development of the county and information common to, and necessary for, the
development of the individual elements of the plan. A brief overview of previous planning efforts in
the county and the general requirements of this planning initiative is also included.
Location
Located on the east coast of Florida in the Treasure Coast Region, Indian River County is bounded
by Brevard County on the north, the Atlantic Ocean on the east, St. Lucie County on the south and
Osceola and Okeechobee counties on the west. The county seat of Vero Beach is approximately 135
miles north of Miami, 140 miles east of Tampa, 100 miles southeast of Orlando and 200 miles south
of Jacksonville. (see figure 1.1)
In addition to the City of Vero Beach, there are four other municipalities in the county: the City of
Sebastian, the City of Fellsmere, the Town of Indian River Shores and the Town of Orchid. While
nearly two-thirds of the population resides in the unincorporated portion of the county, more than
90% of the county's residents live along the coast within 10 miles of the Atlantic Ocean.
The land formation of the county is coastal lowland. Generally, lowlands are relatively flat areas
with elevations of less than 25 feet above mean sea level. On the mainland area of the county, the
key physical features are the St. Johns Marsh in the western portion of the county, the Ten Mile
Ridge in the central part of the county, and the Atlantic Coastal Ridge in the east. Offshore, a barrier
island extends the entire length of the county separated from the mainland by the Indian River
Lagoon. The natural and physical features of the county are discussed in detail in the Conservation,
Coastal Mana e� and Future Land Use Elements of the comprehensive plan.
Planning History
In Indian River County, early planning efforts were not as formalized as recent planning efforts, nor
did those early plans have the force of law that current regulations possess. Those early endeavors
were mostly undertaken by civic and business committees and sought solutions to individual
problems or were confined to specific projects. Despite those early planning efforts, the first
formalized land use regulation in the county did not occur until adoption of the 1957 Zoning
Ordinance, which created districts, provided for the regulation of the use of land, and placed
restrictions on the intensity of those uses.

Comprehensive Plan introductory Element
On May 29, 1975, the county adopted a comprehensive plan as a guide and advisory tool in the
regulation and control of private property. Even with that plan, the legal control of development
was still to be vested in the zoning, platting, and other specific ordinances adopted by the county.
Also in 1975, the state enacted the Local Government Comprehensive Planning Act, which required
the designation of a local planning agency as well as the development of a comprehensive plan. In
response to that act, the Board of County Commissioners designated the Planning and Zoning
Commission as the local planning agency and, in 1982, adopted a comprehensive plan that did have
the force of law. After plan adoption, zoning, subdivision, and other land use regulations were
required to conform to the plan. Pursuant to the state growth management act, amendments to the
comprehensive plan were subject to review by regional and state agencies and could be submitted
only twice annually.
With adoption of the 1985 Local Government Comprehensive Planning and Land Development
Regulation Act, commonly referred to as the Growth Management Act, the state expanded the scope
of the comprehensive planning requirement in Florida even more. To implement the Growth
Management Act, the state adopted Rule 9J-5 of the Florida Administrative Code. Together, those
actions established a top down planning process in Florida, a process in which plans were developed
first at both the state and regional levels. Consistent with state law, local governments had to
develop and maintain adopted comprehensive plans which had to be consistent with both the intent
and specific objectives set forth in the state and regional plans.
Pursuant to the requirements of the 1985 Growth Management Act, Indian River County adopted its
current comprehensive plan on February 13, 1990. Because the Growth Management Act and rule
9J-5 recognize that changing circumstances may necessitate amendments to comprehensive plans,
amendments to the plan are allowed when certain criteria are met. Since plan adoption, Indian River
County has amended its plan several times. Those amendments have ranged in significance from
minor text changes to substantial future land use map changes.
Another provision of state law recognizes that periodic assessment and evaluation is a required part
of the planning process. For that reason, each of Florida's local governments is required to
periodically submit an adopted Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) to the State Department of
Community Affairs (DCA). With the first post 1985 Growth Management Act round of EARs, local
governments with 1992 populations of more than 2,500 persons had to submit their EAR's to DCA
approximately seven years after plan adoption. Indian River County's first EAR was adopted on
December 17, 1996.
The 1996 EAR identified many changes necessary to update the plan to reflect new data, changes in
state law, and new circumstances in the community. Those changes were incorporated into EAR
based plan amendments, which were adopted in 1998. A second County EAR was adopted on
November 18, 2008.

Comprehensive Plan Introductory Element
Under rule 9J-5, county plans must contain the following elements and sub -elements: Future Land
Use; Transportation; Housing; Sanitary Sewer, Solid Waste, Stormwater Management, Potable
Water; Natural Groundwater Aquifer Recharge; Coastal Management; Conservation; Recreation and
Open Space; Intergovernmental Coordination; and Capital Improvements. Other elements may be
included at the option of the local government. The Indian River County plan includes two optional
elements, an Introductory Element and an Economic Development Element.
In addition to establishing the required components of a local comprehensive plan, rule 9J-5
establishes minimum criteria for the preparation, review and compliance determination of
comprehensive plans. Those requirements recognize that local governments will playa major role in
accomplishing state and regional goals and policies. The regulations also mandate that local plans
be based on the review and analysis of existing conditions, projected population and service demand,
projected cost of service provision, and sources of revenue for the community.
Planning Process and Public Participation
In addition to complying with the technical requirements of preparing a comprehensive plan, local
governments must provide opportunities for local citizens and property owners to participate in the
development and adoption of their plans.
In January 1988, the Board of County Commissioners adopted a Public Participation Plan that was
used in the preparation of the county's comprehensive plan. That multifaceted plan provided for
public education, public input during plan preparation and development, public hearings during the
adoption process and general provisions to be followed throughout the planning process. The
education component involved development of this Introductory Element of the plan as well as the
presentation of this information to the public.
To provide overall direction in the process of developing the plan, the Board of County
Commissioners appointed the Planning and Zoning Commission as the designated local planning
agency. The Board of County Commissioners also directed existing county boards and
commissions, including the Planning and Zoning Commission, to provide direct input in the
development of individual elements of the comprehensive plan.
Among the Planning and Zoning Commission's responsibilities were: establishing broad goals;
reviewing staff and other advisory group reports; conducting public meetings and hearings; and
making plan adoption and plan amendment recommendations to the Board of County
Commissioners.
Complementing the role of the Planning and Zoning Commission, existing county boards and
commissions were assigned primary responsibility for the development of individual elements. The
groups were selected on the basis of their interest and technical knowledge of the issues associated
Community Development Department Indian River County
4
Comprehensive Plan Introductory Element
with various individual elements. As existing advisory bodies to the county, these groups also
possessed knowledge of county policies and regulations. The responsibilities of those primary
review groups were: reviewing staff drafts and reports; conducting public meetings; and
recommending draft elements to the Planning and Zoning Commission.
Other civic and professional groups were also encouraged to participate in the development and
review of the comprehensive plan by participating in the formal public review process as well as
conducting their own reviews.
Throughout the development and review of the plan, planning staff had the responsibility of
providing the necessary coordination and support. That included: conducting research and analysis;
preparing and presenting draft elements and reports; and conducting public meetings and workshops.
Upon completion of the elements, the formal adoption process began. Pursuant to the requirements
of Florida Statutes, the Planning and Zoning Commission held a public hearing and made its
recommendations to the Board of County Commissioners. The County Commission then conducted
a public hearing and transmitted the plan to DCA for state review.
As structured, the public participation plan provided for the availability and inspection of documents
by the public; the solicitation and encouragement of the public to provide written comments which
were incorporated into the public record; and the provision of public notice of all meetings,
workshops and hearings. Other efforts to keep the public informed included the issuance of press
releases, the provision of information, and the maintenance of records pertaining to public review.
Documents were posted on the County's website and were provided in hardcopy form as part of
various meeting packets.
Consistent with state law, plan amendments have been processed in a manner similar to the plan
adoption process.
Development of both EARs followed largely the same process as development of the comprehensive
plan. That process is outlined in the third EAR Public Participation Plan, which the Board of County
Commissioners adopted on June 20, 2006. Consistent with state law, the Planning and Zoning
Commission, as the designated local planning agency, was primarily responsible for developing the
EAR. Similar to the plan development process, county boards and commissions provided direct
input in the development of the EAR for individual elements of the comprehensive plan.
When all the EAR elements were complete, the Planning and Zoning commission approved the
proposed EAR. Following two public workshops, the adopted EAR was approved by the Board of
County Commissioners at a public hearing. Subsequently, EAR based amendments to the plan were
adopted through the regular plan amendment process.

Population
One of the key components of any successful long-range planning effort is to accurately project
future conditions and needs. In the development of a comprehensive plan, an understanding of the
future population and the forces which influence population growth is essential. Before future
population is projected, however, it is necessary to first analyze historic population levels and
current population estimates and the trends.
The following analysis addresses Indian River County's past, present, and future population
characteristics. As structured, the population section focuses on three aspects: historic population,
current trends, and population projections. Each of these builds upon the other to provide the
foundation upon which the comprehensive plan rests. While the historic population analysis
provides insight to the county's past development and growth, an assessment of current conditions
provides the basis for formulating population projections.
The focus of this comprehensive plan is the unincorporated portions of the county. Because the
availability of reliable data for sub -geographic areas of the county is limited, this analysis will focus
primarily on the county as a whole. In addition to the three aspects mentioned above, this analysis
will include a comparison of Indian River County with the state and region.
Since the geographic areas referenced herein remain constant throughout the analysis, the following
definitions are in order. The Treasure Coast Region is comprised of Indian River, St. Lucie, Martin,
and Palm Beach Counties. Any reference to Indian River County includes the entire county unless
specified as the unincorporated county. The unincorporated county excludes the five incorporated
municipalities (Vero Beach, Sebastian, Fellsmere, Indian River Shores, and Orchid). Census
Designated Places (CDP) are small areas within the unincorporated county designated by the US
Bureau of Census.
As defined by the census, a CDP is a densely settled population center without legally defined
corporate limits or corporate powers. These areas generally contain a residential nucleus with a city -
type street pattern. In addition to those areas defined above, several other CDP's of local importance
are included. These areas do not meet the criteria for official designation, but have experienced
significant development and population growth. All areas are depicted on the map below.

Historic Population
The historic population of Indian River County from 1930 to the present is shown in Table 1.1. This
table also provides the numerical and percentage increase of population for each period. The data
indicate that Indian River County has experienced significant growth since its formation in 1925.
Overall, the county experienced a more than 20 fold population increase between 1930 and 2009.
With a population of 6,724 in 1930, the county grew to more than 141,475 people in 2009, a growth
rate of approximately 3.93% per year. That growth, however, was not constant over the time period.
In the early years of the county, 1920 to 1950, Indian River County's population increased at an
average rate of approximately 2.88% per year. The population did, however, nearly double from
6,724 persons to 11,872 persons during that time.
In the fifties, the County experienced rapid growth, doubling from 11,872 in 1950 to 25,309 in 1960.
During that time, the population increased 113%, an annual rate of 7.86%.
County growth slowed considerably in the 1960's, to an annual rate of 3.58%. Despite a growth rate
half that of the previous 10 years, the population experienced a sizable increase of 10,683 persons
over that ten year period.

In the seventies, the County's population increased by over 23,000 persons, an average annual
growth rate of 5.23%.
While the County's growth rate slowed to approximately 4.86% per year during the 1980-1990
timeframe, the numerical increase was the largest recorded. Slowing further, the growth rate
declined to approximately 2.27% per year for the 1990 to 2000 period. Then, the County's growth
rate increased to approximately 2.53% per year between 2000 and 2009. From 2008 and 2009,
however, the County's population actually decreased by 192 people, or 0.14%. That is the first time
that the county's population has ever declined.
Since the early part of the 20th century, both the State and the Treasure Coast Region have also
experienced rapid population growth. Table 1.2 provides the population information for Indian
River County, the Treasure Coast Region, and the state of Florida from 1960 to 2009. During that
period, the population of the county and the region grew more than five fold, with the region slightly
outpacing the county. Both areas grew faster than the state, which more than tripled in population.
In fact, Indian River County's population as a percentage of Florida's population increased from
0.51% in 1960 to 0.75% in 2009.

During the period from 1960 to 2005, the population of Indian River County increased by 414%; the
Treasure Coast by 474%; and the state by 261.9%. While these figures are impressive, closer
examination is needed to understand the rapid growth and identify the trends that occurred. Because
data for the period from 1960-2005 are available for 5 year periods, much of this analysis addresses
5 year intervals.
For the 9 five year periods between 1960 and 2005, population increases for Indian River County
averaged 20.1%, compared with 21.7% increases for the Treasure Coast, and 15.4% increases for
Florida. In all periods except the 1995 - 2000 period, Indian River County's 5 year growth rates
were higher than Florida's five year growth rates, indicating that the county had a faster growth rate
than the State as a whole. Comparatively, Indian River County's rates were greater than those for the
Treasure Coast only for the 1975-1980, the 1980-1985, and the 2000-2005 periods.
For much of the 1980's and all of the 1990's, the county's growth rate fell below the pace of the
region. Therefore, the county's share of the regional population declined during that time period.
This trend began to shift during the 2000-2005 period, with Indian River County outpacing the
Treasure Coast during that time. At the same time, the County experienced higher percentage
increases of population than the state, resulting in an overall increase in the county's share of the
state population total.

These numbers indicate that the pace of growth in the state, region, and county slowed in the 1985-
2005 period compared to the 1970-1985 period. While outpacing the state growth rate through
1995, approximately equaling the state growth rate between 1995 and 2000, and again outpacing the
state growth rate between 2000 and 2005, Indian River County has grown at a faster pace than the
state and has remained near the growth rate of the more urban areas of the Treasure Coast.
Subgeographic Estimates and Projections
Appendix B" contains a Traffic Analysis Zone (TAZ) map of the County with tables listing year 2000
population and employment estimates and the latest population and employment projections for 2015
and 2030 by Traffic Analysis Zone. These data are not comparable to 1995 County Traffic Analysis
Zone data, because the number of TAZ's, as well as the individual TAZ boundaries, have changed
substantially since 1995 as a consequence of the County engaging in regional travel demand
forecasting modeling efforts. Further, 2030 TAZ data do not use BEBR as their source for population
data; therefore, 2030 TAZ data are not directly comparable to the BEBR population data for the County,
State and Treasure Coast as reported within this element. For 2030 TAZ data, the County chose to use

population data prepared by the County's Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO). Those MPO
population data were developed by using a regression analysis based on recent growth trends.
Components of Population Change
Population growth is the result of two processes: natural growth and migration. Natural growth
consists of births minus deaths. While population with a high proportion of younger persons and/or
a high birth rate is likely to have positive natural growth, a population with a high proportion of
older persons and/or a low birth rate is likely to experience negative natural growth. Migration on
the other hand is the movement of people from one location to another. Many factors, including
economic, health, climate, and family contribute to the decision of a household to relocate to another
area. Table 1.5 identifies the components of growth in Florida, the Treasure Coast Region, and
Indian River County.
As indicated in Table 1.5, the proportion of growth due to net migration is high throughout the state,
region, and especially the county. In fact, a review of historical data indicates that, while migration
is declining as a growth factor for the state and the region, it is increasing for Indian River County.

Characteristics of the Population
This section examines the current socioeconomic characteristics of the population. Since the
decennial U.S. Census is the traditional and most reliable source of these data, much of the data
reflect 2000 figures. Where more current and reliable data are available, they have been included.
Also, comparisons between the county, the region, and the state are presented.

Age
The data in tables 1.6 and 1.7 show the numerical and percentage breakdown of the County's
population by age. In each 10 year census period, all age groups, except for the 20-34 year old age
group, increased in size. Despite the fact that nearly all age groups increased in size, there are
differences in age group growth which can be observed. The most notable difference relates to the
oldest age group, 65+; this group nearly doubled in each period, resulting in a 99 fold increase
between the year 1930 and the year 2000. By contrast, the two youngest groups combined (ages 19
and under) increased by a factor of only 9.

Generally, the percentage of the total population contained in each age group provides a better
indication of the aging of the population than simply looking at the number of people in each age
group over time. The most obvious trend occurs in the 35-64 age cohort. Except for 1930, this
group consistently commanded a larger share of the population than any other group and increased
from 28.9% of the total in 1930 to 38.5% in 2007, an increase of 9.6 percentage points. The only
other group that increased its percent of total population was the over 65 age group, which grew
from 5% in 1930 to 27.1% in 2007, an increase of 22.1 percentage points.
While the three youngest age groups have all declined as a percent of the total population, the age
group in the workforce, those between 20 and 65, has remained fairly consistent over time, with
54.4% in 1930, dropping to 52.2% in 2007. This shows that the pre-school and school age
population, those under 20, lost ground to the elders between 1930 and 2007. Despite a numerical
increase of nearly 29,000 persons, this age group represented 20.7% of the total in 2007, compared
with 40.6% in 1930.

With a 2007 median age of 48.4, Indian River County's population is older than that of Florida. By
comparison, the median age in Florida was 39.9 that year. In fact, Indian River County's median age
was the 9th highest of the 67 counties in Florida in 2007. As illustrated in Table 1.8, the median age

Race
The racial makeup of the County population has also changed over time. As indicated in Table 1.9,
the percentage of blacks decreased from 28.7% of the population in 1930 to 9% in 2007, while the
white population increased from 71.3% in 1930 to 89.8% in 2007. According to Florida Bureau of
Economic and Business Research estimates, people of other races increased from 1,308 persons, or
1.2% of the County population in 2000, to 1,716 persons, or 1.2% of the County population, in 2007.
These people of other races include American Indians, Asians, Pacific Islanders, and those
identifying themselves as two or more races. In contrast, the proportion of the population of Florida
that is from a race other than black or white increased from 2.4% in 2000 to 2.8% in 2007.

Education
Educational achievement is measured by the number of years of school completed by adults over 25
years of age, as reported by the U.S. Census. Achievement levels are broken down into three
categories: Elementary School, High School, and College. The High School and College groups are
further broken down to those that completed 1-3 years and those that graduated. Achievement levels
recorded are the highest level (years completed) reached by an individual.

As shown in Table 1. 10, the educational attainment level in the county is slightly lower than that of
the state as a whole. The data also indicate that the educational attainment level in the county
increased from 1990 to 2000. In 1990, 76.4% of the county's over 25 population had at least a high
school education. By 2000, that figure had risen to 81.6%, a slightly smaller increase than the state
as a whole, which increased from 74.5% to 82.5%.
Income
Comparisons of income utilize three indicators: per capita income, household income, and family
income, as well as incidence of poverty.
In Indian River County, per capita income compares favorably to that of the nation and the state. In
the 90's, the county was consistently above the nation and the state; in fact, the margin of difference
has increased over time.
When compared to the four county region, however, Indian River County's per capita income is 3rd
overall, behind Palm Beach County and Martin County. St. Lucie County is the only one of the four
Treasure Coast counties with a per capita income below the state average.

In 1979, 1989, 1999, and 2007, the rate of poverty among persons and families was lower in Indian
River County than at both the state and national levels.
Households
Generally, the number of households and the average household size can greatly impact land use
planning in a community. A household is defined as the person or persons occupying a dwelling
unit. As the average household size decreases, the number of households or required dwelling units
increases relative to the population.
Table 1.13 shows the number of households and persons per household. Because the average
number of persons per household decreased from 1950 to 2007, the number of households increased
at a rate faster than the population as a whole increased during that time.

Due to several factors, average household size is decreasing throughout the United States. These
factors include families having fewer children and delaying the birth of children; young adults no
longer living with parents but moving out on their own, and older persons living longer and not
returning to their children in their later years. Combined, these factors have led to a decrease in the
average household size. As indicated in Table 1. 13, the average household size in Indian River
County, already less than the state's, is decreasing. The pace of that decrease, however, slowed
down in the eighties, and even further slowed in the nineties.
Population Projections
Population projections are essential tools in any planning activity. For land use planning, the
amount of population growth determines future requirements for housing, transportation, recreation,
schools and other public and private facilities and services. Using a population projection that is too
low will likely result in failure to adequately identify and fund future county facility needs (e.g.
roads). Conversely, using a population projection that is too high will result in identifying needs that
will occur beyond the forecasted time period. A population projection is, therefore, an attempt to
provide an accurate forecast of the future population. As with any forecast, the reliability of a
population projection depends on the accuracy of the data, the accuracy of the projection
methodology and the accuracy of the assumptions used.
In Florida, most county comprehensive plans and long range transportation plans rely on countywide
population forecasts prepared by the University of Florida's Bureau of Economic and Business
Research (BEBR). The BEBR population forecasts include "Low", "Medium", and "High"
projections by county in five year increments. According to Section 9J-5.005 of the Florida
Administrative Code, the BEBR medium series projections should be utilized by communities for
their planning activities. Section 9J-5.005 also states that a community may use its own projections,
or BEBR low or high series projections, provided sufficient documentation or analysis is provided
Community Development Department Indian River County

justifying the choice.
For Indian River County, BEBR medium series projections are shown in Table 1.14 and constitute
the population projections used in this plan. These projections reflect an average annual growth rate
of 1.51% through the year 2030. This is a reduced growth rate from previous yearly BEBR
projections. This lower growth rate reflects the recent collapse of the housing market and the
lingering effects of the worst economic crisis since the 1930s.
In the future, most growth will come to the County from the south and north. Because of an
increasing scarcity of developable land, population is moving northward into Indian River County in
search of housing and land. To the north, the "baby boom" generation is reaching retirement age,
and many of these retirees are moving to sunbelt states, including to Florida.
As a traditionally agricultural area, Indian River County has a large mass of available vacant land
that can accommodate growth from the south and growth from the north. This, coupled with a large
inventory of existing platted lots within the county, including existing platted lots dating back to the
1950's and 1960's, indicates that there will continue to be available space for future population
growth.

As with any projection, the probability of error increases as the projection horizon year is extended.
It is also difficult to make assumptions about a population 20 years in the future.
Because of the importance of migration to the growth of Indian River County, the county's growth is
affected by the many economic, social, and political factors at the local, state, regional, national, and
global level that impact the decisions of individuals or businesses to relocate to the county.
An examination of county, regional and state projections reveals that several factors should be
considered in preparing projections. The assumption which forms the basis of these projections is
that present demographic trends will continue. These trends include a continued reliance on in -
migration for population growth and a resulting influx of many retirees.
Since the 1950's, birth rates in the U.S. have declined and are expected to continue to decline. This
will result in slower U.S. population growth with an aging of the population. Those over 65,
however, have shown a desire to relocate to locations which offer the high quality of life often

associated with a mild climate and a relatively low cost of living. These are characteristics
historically applicable to Florida.
In the future, growth will be a major factor with which local governments and the state must
contend. Between the year 2008 and 2030, Indian River County will add approximately 55,233
residents, or nearly 2,510 additional residents per year. By that time, the four county Treasure Coast
region will increase from about 1.85 million to over 2.36 million residents. With respect to the state,
the Census Bureau projects that Florida will likely become the third most populous state, with over
20 million residents, by 2030. During this period, the county's population will increase at a faster
pace than the state's and the region's.
Throughout the planning period, the percentage population change for Indian River County will be
higher than the percentage change for both the state and the region. This percent will decline for all
three areas over time.
Indian River County's population growth, therefore, is expected to continue to be fueled by in -
migration, with a great many of those immigrants being retired persons.

Seasonal and Functional Population
To accurately determine demand for services and to comply with state law, the comprehensive plan
estimates not only the resident population of the county, but also the functional (or effective)
population of the county. The functional population is the resident population plus the seasonal
population. This population projection is utilized as needed within the comprehensive plan. In some
instances, the county utilizes the permanent population rather than the functional population. For
example, some level of service standards are based on permanent population, while other level of
service standards are based on both resident and seasonal population.
The seasonal population is comprised of those persons who visit the county or reside in the county
for a period of less than 6 months. This group includes tourists, migrant farm workers and other
short-term and long-term visitors.
The seasonal population projection used in the comprehensive plan is not intended to provide an
enumeration or total count of persons who visit Indian River County throughout any given year, but
rather to provide an estimate of the potential peak seasonal population. Consequently, the seasonal
population figures presented in this document reflect the maximum one day potential population that
is likely to occur during the peak season winter months.
Community Development Department Indian River County
23
Comprehensive Plan Introductory Element
In the past, Indian River County accommodated a significant seasonal population that is expected to
increase even further in the future. Factors that contribute to seasonal population growth include
Indian River County's mild climate, variety of natural resources, coastal location, and wide variety
of recreational and social activities.
While not developed as a major tourist area, Indian River County can be expected to attract an
increasing number of tourists in the coming years. Some of the factors contributing to the growth of
tourism are the ideal winter climate; access to beaches, water facilities and other recreation facilities;
and proximity to other major attractions in the state.
As a key component of the local economy, agriculture has an effect on seasonal population. Because
of the seasonal nature of citrus production, the number of migrant laborers generally increase during
the peak harvesting season.
The balance of the seasonal population consists of the short-term and long-term visitors/residents
drawn to the county for the same general reasons as tourists. Many of these people are of retirement
age, and their numbers can be expected to increase as that segment of the U.S. population increases.
To determine seasonal population, the county calculated the peak season populations of lodging
establishments (hotels and motels); recreational vehicle (RV) parks and campgrounds; visitors with
family, friends, and relatives; migrant labor camps; and part -year residents.
Lodging Establishments
For estimation of the number of persons using county lodging establishments during peak season,
the following formula was used.
(number of units) X (peak season occupancy rate) X(average number ofpersons per occupied room)
Through a study based on census and survey data, the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO)
projects the number of hotel/motel units in the county. Those projections are made in five year
increments.
Based on a 1987 survey conducted by the County's Planning Division, the peak season occupancy
rate was estimated to be 90%. Research indicates that the average number of persons per occupied
room is 1.8.
According to those figures, 3,614 persons/day will use county lodging establishments during the
peak season in 2010. Additionally, the county now projects that 4,100 persons/day will use county
lodging establishments during the 2030 peak season.
Projections for future peak season hotel/motel visitors were calculated using 1987 occupancy rates
and persons per room as well as a 75 unit increase in hotel rooms for each five year period.

Recreational Vehicle Parks and Campgrounds
In 2006, there were 718 recreational vehicle sites in Indian River County. A 1987 survey of
operators revealed a 3 month peak season from mid-January until mid-April, and full occupancy for
the duration. Occupancy of recreational vehicles was almost exclusively couples. Based on that
information, it is estimated that there were approximately 1,436 people living in recreational vehicle
parks and campgrounds in the county during the 2006 peak season.
In addition, it is projected that approximately 1,506 people will be living in recreational vehicle
parks and campgrounds in the county during the 2030 peak season. That projection assumes that the
number of recreational vehicle sites in the county will increase by 1% every five years.

Visitors with Family, Friends and Relatives
In addition to those tourists staying in hotels, motels, recreational vehicle parks and camps, a number
of visitors to the county seek lodging with family, friends and relatives. In 2001, the Indian River
County Chamber of Commerce hired a consultant to study tourist behavior and tourism's economic
impact upon the County. As part of the study, surveys of non -county residents were taken at thirteen
different sites from January 15, 2001 to October 1, 2001. Among the survey questions were:
purpose of visit; type of lodging; duration of stay within the county; and destinations. These data
were used to produce a profile of travelers and visitors to Indian River County.
According to the Indian River County tourism study, 25.23% of overnight visitors to Indian River
County stayed with family, friends and relatives. For the first quarter of 2001, lodging with family,
friends and relatives in Indian River County represented 42.7% of lodgings in hotels and motels. It
is estimated that 1,543 people will stay with family, friends, and relatives during the 2010 peak
season. Additionally, it is projected that 1,750 people will stay with family, friends, and relatives
during the 2030 peak season.

Migrant Labor
Historically, agriculture, generally, and citrus production, specifically, has played a key role in the
Indian River County economy. Due to the decline of the citrus industry, however, citrus's role in the
local economy is diminishing. According to a September 10, 2004 farmworker housing report
prepared for the Florida Housing Finance Corporation by the Shimberg Center for Affordable
Housing, there were 1,696 migrant farm laborers within the county in 2002. In addition to the 1,696
migrant farm laborers, there were 240 household members that accompanied migrant farm laborers.
While those figures appear to be low considering the agricultural segment of the economy, several
factors were identified which support this figure. One factor is that migrant labor camps in the
county are currently licensed for only 570 persons. Another factor is that many seasonal farm
laborers are year-round county residents. The final factor is that during peak season many laborers
are bussed into the county on a daily basis from neighboring counties with higher numbers of
migrant labor facilities.
It is assumed that the number of migrant laborers will further decline in years to come due to the
spreading of citrus canker and citrus greening in Indian River County. Citrus canker is a bacterial
disease that causes premature leaf and fruit drop. Citrus greening, also a bacterial disease, causes
citrus trees to produce bitter misshaped fruit and kills trees over the course of a couple of years.
According to the Indian River Citrus League, a portion of the county's citrus is infected with canker,
but at very low incidence. Through time, however, the incidence of infection will continue to
increase. The Indian River Citrus League also estimates that the incidence of citrus greening within
Indian River County will increase over time. The spread of these diseases will depend on weather
conditions, and grove management practices.
Although citrus canker and citrus greening will be present, it is estimated that the citrus industry will
remain profitable, although infected trees will have to be removed and replacement trees will have to
be planted on a reoccurring basis until cures can be found for the two diseases. As the two diseases
spread and as infected trees are removed, production will decline.
It is estimated by the Indian River Citrus League that the effects of these two diseases will continue
to reduce the amount of citrus acreage within the County. In 2008, that amount was 39,013 acres.
With the decline in the citrus acreage, the Indian River Citrus League also estimates that the migrant
labor work force will decline to 1/2 of its 2002 size. Consequently, it can be expected that there will
be approximately 968 migrant laborers within the County at the point that the County reaches 30,000
acres of citrus (1,936/2 = 968 migrant laborers).

Part -Year Residents
The final segment of the county's seasonal population is the part-time resident component of the
county. That group has been characterized as "snowbirds" who flock south for the winter months
and return to their primary residences in the north for the remainder of the year. As defined,
snowbirds consist of people who maintain an Indian River County residence which is occupied for
less than 6 months a year.
Past studies have indicated that the part -year population during the peak season is generally equal to
10% of the resident population. Based on that ratio, it is estimated that there were 14,167 part -year
residents living in the county during the 2008 peak season. Furthermore, it is projected that there
will be 19,690 part -year residents living in the county during the 2030 peak season.

The functional population is the largest population that would be expected to use county services
and facilities on a given day. As such, the functional population of the entire county can be
determined by adding the resident and the seasonal populations of the entire county.
Economy
The local economy can greatly influence the stability and quality of life in an area. In Indian River
County, several economic indicators can provide an overview of the economy. Those indicators are:
unemployment and employment by major industrial sectors. Each of these indicators is addressed
below. A detailed discussion of the economy is presented in the Economic Development Element.
Unemployment
Indian River County's unemployment rate is higher than the state's as a whole. In 2008, the county's
average annual unemployment rate exceeded the state's unemployment rate by 1.9 percentage points,
up from 1.3 percentage points in 2000.

The county's unemployment rate is also cyclical. Generally, the unemployment rate is higher during
the summer months. The cyclical rate is attributed to the seasonal nature of the citrus and tourism
sectors.
Employment
Employment by major industrial sector is presented in Table 1.25. These data show the number of
persons employed and percent of total employment. As shown in Table 1.25, employment decreased
in manufacturing, utilities, and information from 2001 to 2008. In 2001, retail was the sector with
the largest percentage of employees in the county at 17.9%. The health care sector was the next
largest at 14.6%. In 2008, the health care sector overtook the retail sector in terms of total
employment.
The growth of the health care sector can in part be attributed to the aging of the County's population.
Some of the decline in the retail and manufacturing sectors can be attributed to the collapsed housing
market and recent economic crisis.
