Consequences of Population Change for Retail/Wholesale Sector Employment in the Nonmetropolitan Great Plains
A rural economic restructuring perspective and central place theory are used to assess the impact of population change on retail/wholesale sector employment for the 438 nonmetropolitan counties of the Great Plains region from 1950 to 1990. Findings indicate that county level population declined for every decade except the 1970 turnaround decade, and the greatest losses were in completely rural nonadjacent counties. The civilian labor force declin…

Local Labor Market Characteristics and the Occupational Concentration of Different Sociodemographic Groups1
This paper analyzes the extent to which employment opportunities for different sociodemographic groups are concentrated in a limited number of occupations within their local labor market areas. Data from the STF-4 file of the 1980 Census of Population and Housing are used to measure the occupational concentration of these groups in 318 labor market areas (LMAs) in the United States. Regression analysis demonstrates the significance of local labor…

Organization of Production and Community Income Distributions
This paper proposes a model to account for the differential effects of employment changes in major industrial sectors on the distribution of family income in nonmetropolitan communities. It is argued that variations in the organization of production lead to differences in the occupational composition of industrial sectors which produces differential impacts on the distribution of income. Empirical analysis shows that changes in Concentrated Secto…
