32,145.

That's what the population of Warren County would be in 2030 if nothing is done to attract new residents, according to the Pennsylvania State Data Center, which issued county population projections this week.

The data center forecast is that between the last official census in 2000 and 2030, Warren County will have lost 11,718 people.

The 26.7 percent drop in population would be the second highest rate of decline among Pennsylvania's 67 counties, behind only Wyoming County, where a 26.8 percent decrease in population is projected by the data center.
