NEIGHBORHOOD CENSUS PROFILES Minneapolis Community Planning and Economic Development (CPED) has recently prepared Neighborhood Census Profiles for the Field, Regina and Northrop neighborhoods. These profiles visually display selected neighborhood census trends from the 1980, 1990 and 2000 censuses, and include the corresponding city-wide trend line for the same period (when available). The profiles also include the most recent land use and zoning maps, and plan "base" maps.
