Longitude

edit

The longitude given in Geography is not the same as in the infobox. The difference isn't huge ... but why is there a difference at all?
Geography has 92°41′4″W, and gives the decimal form as -92.684718 - but the decimal form works out to be 92°41′4.9848″W; i.e. it should be 92°41′5″W.
The infobox has 92°44′2″W - a difference of just under 3′, which equates to about 3¾ km west, well outside Grantsburg's boundary.
The longitude in Geography is very close to the centre of Grantsburg - so it should be used in the infobox.

Demographics

edit

2010 census - 1,341 people, 567 households, and 345 families; and the average household size was 2.28 and the average family size was 2.92.
Average household size = number of people (1341) divided by the number of households (567) — but this gives 2.365, not 2.28.
Average family size = number of people (1341) divided by the number of families (345) — but this gives 3.886, not 2.92.

2000 census - 1,369 people, 565 households, and 332 families; and the average household size was 2.32 and the average family size was 2.98.
Average household size = number of people (1369) divided by the number of households (565) — but this gives 2.423, not 2.32.
Average family size = number of people (1369) divided by the number of families (332) — but this gives 4.123, not 2.98.

So how are these calculated? Prisoner of Zenda (talk) 09:40, 8 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
