COMMUNITY TRENDS & CHARACTERISTICS IN THE SEATAC COMMUNITIES PLAN STUDY AREA POPULATION & ENROLLMENT Growth trends- In 1970, the study area contained 137,000 persons, over 110,000 of whom resided within the Highline School District. The cities of Normandy Park and Des Moines, which are wholly contained within the study area , had a 1970 population of 4, 202 and 4, 099, respectively. Although some additional people live within the small portions of the cities of Seattle, Tukwila and Kent that lie within the study area, the majority of the population is in unincorporated areas. The portion of the study area north of the SeaTac Airport received its greatest spurt of growth during the 1940-50 decade, with a considerable levelling off in the rate of growth occurring thereafter. The growth curve for census tract 270, the Southern Heights neigh- borhood, shown below, is typical of growth trends in this northern area between 1930 and 1970. c: -0 :::1 Q.
