It is important to create a “true picture” of our community. We use this picture to shape our programs and services and to encourage others to find how they can make Wright County a better place to live.
The 2022 Community Assessment is a comprehensive examination of the conditions that low-income individuals face in Wright County, Minnesota. This report details the strengths, assets, needs and challenges of residents as Wright County grows in population and urbanization. This assessment was produced in-house by Wright County Community Action and serves to inform both the public and community stakeholders about their communities.
