Grove is a very nice area but it doesn't necessarily have a very impressive population growth. This estimate shows a gain of 48 people between the 2010 census and 2012.

It's the main city on Grand Lake so I would imagine their growth is mostly retirees wanting to live on or near the lake with easy access to a small city and healthcare.
