A city that grew, then held steady
Stafford incorporated in 1956. It grew from 1,485 residents in 1960 to 15,681 in 2000, then barely changed: 17,693 in 2010 and 17,666 in 2020. Most homes are therefore from before 2000, by our reading. The city is unusual in another way: it stopped levying a city property tax in 1995.
