How Mills County's housing shapes the work
Mills County is rural, with a population density of about 33 people per square mile across 437.4 square miles. That means properties are spread out, and the distance between Glenwood and the county's smaller communities can be significant.
The housing stock here reflects an older building era. The median year a home was built is 1973, and about 62 percent of homes went up before 1980. For a homeowner, that often means decades of accumulated items in basements, garages, and attics that need a full haul.
About 84 percent of homes are single-family detached, and only about 3 percent are in buildings of five units or more. The practical effect is that most jobs are houses with yards and outbuildings, not apartment buildings.
With about 16 percent of occupied homes rented, there is also steady work turning over units between tenants.
