The Arizona Community Data Set is used to analyze intersectoral employment relationships in relatively small urban settlements. Estimates of sectoral-level nonbasic employment and economic base (impact) multipliers are given for various functional types of economies. Furthermore, these multiplier effects are disaggregated into sectoral components to establish how locally oriented employment variously responds to a shift in the economic base. All statistical estimates are directly based on survey-generated data and do not suffer from the various misspecifications that invariably plague estimates based on indirect methods
