21st century 12 dated mentions

2000s

  1. 2000
    Composition: race, Hispanic origin, and the foreign-born question

    In 2000 the census recorded the town as 97.65 percent white, 0.43 percent Black, 0.21 percent Native American, 0.29 percent Pacific Islander, 0.29 percent some other race and 1.14 percent two or more races, with Hispanic or Latino residents of any race at 0.71 percent.

  2. 2000
    Age and households, in dated snapshots only

    Median age: 34 years in 2000, 30.6 in 2010, 34.3 in 2020, and 33.5 in the American Community Survey's 2020–2024 five-year estimates — a survey figure, printed as one, from the banked current-today section.

  3. 2000
    The counts: five people in 2020, and the series behind them

    The series behind that figure, as the census returns are published: in 2000 the town's Black share was 0.43 percent of 1,402 people, about six residents; in 2010, 0.5 percent of 1,896, about nine or ten.

  4. 2000–2002
    The pipeline at boundary size; the bust with nothing to take

    The bust, carried whole in larger cities' files, is here a one-line account: the crash of 2000–2002 took no named North Liberty firm, there being none in the record to take, and no acquisition-at-the-top case names this town.

  5. 2000–2020
    The counts that jump: +35.2 percent, then −14.4 percent, unexplained

    The banked spine prints the figures and flags them, offering no explanation because none was found in a reached source: from 1,402 in 2000 to 1,896 in 2010, a rise of 494 people, +35.2 percent, the largest rise in the series after 1880, following a decade of +2.6 percent…

  6. 2000–2020
    The boundary question at the jumps

    The Census Bureau's Gazetteer area for the town was 0.98 square miles in 2010 and 1.04 square miles in 2020; the 2000 figure carried in the banked spine is 0.75 square miles.

  7. 2003–2010
    The modern count, as the compiled tables give it

    The City-data compilation of reported offences for North Liberty (drawn from agency reporting) lists, for each year 2003 through 2010, zero murders and zero robberies in most years — a single robbery appears in 2010…

  8. 2005–2026
    The modern course: reform at a distance, the kiosk test, and November 2026

    The 2005 Silverman rounds pass here at boundary size (Walkerton's article carries them whole): Walkerton was named in them, its 56,470 transactions and 11 employees printed, and it survived — a fight North Liberty watched from six miles away, having no seat at risk.

  9. 2007
    The National Register listings in the town

    North Liberty Park, at 309 North Jefferson Street, was listed 29 March 2007 under reference 07000211 — a historic district of New Deal and Works Progress Administration resources developed in 1935 and 1937…

  10. 2007
    The record itself: two Register listings and the survey behind them

    North Liberty Park, at 309 North Jefferson Street, was listed on 29 March 2007 (reference 07000211) as a historic district of two contributing buildings, one contributing site, three contributing structures and two contributing objects.

  11. 2007
    Inside the line: the town park, and the cemetery in the state park

    North Liberty Park — seven acres at 309 North Jefferson Street, listed on the National Register in 2007 — is famous at the scale a Register listing confers: its WPA fieldstone entrances, footbridge and bandshell of 1935 and 1937 are the documented work, carried whole in the Architecture section.

  12. 2008–2009
    The 2008–09 recession at town size — tested negative at reached strength

    Settlers: the State Board of Accounts town audits for 2008–2010, town minutes for those years, and the South Bend Tribune archive.
