Regional Diversity
Regional differences in demographic and economic growth in United States are analyzed for period 1960-1990. The outlook for regional growth in 1980s is first discussed and an analysis of demographic change is presented with attention to population growth and its components revival of nonmetropolitan growth net migration fertility age structure household and family structure and racial and ethnic mix of central cities. Trends in employment and inc…
The duration of residence approach to a dynamic stochastic model of internal migration
The data presented indicate a definite trend that tends to support the axiom of cumulative inertia. The probabilities of movement decline by increasing duration of residence for each year. Not only is information on duration of residence an important element in any study of migration, but it also provides a necessary modification for the Markov chain approach to migration probabilities. Future studies of the mathematical model will require data t…

Birth Control and the Fertility of the U.S. Black Population, 1880 To 1980
Black fertility in the U. S. declined sharply in the latter part of the 19th century and continued declining up to 1940. Common expert opinion has held that this decline in fertility was not attributable to an increase in birth control practice. Instead, experts hypothesized that the fertility decline was due almost entirely to deleterious changes in health factors among blacks. The health hypothesis is faulty because those black groups with soci…

Employment Status and Retrospective and Prospective Migration in the United States
Employment status and retrospective and prospective migration in the United States
Este trabajo examina los datos de una encuesta especial de la Oficina del Censo, sobre las razones para movilizarse y sobre el estado de empleo, al inicio y al final del período de un año de migración. Estudios anteriores han enfocado el estado de empleo al final del período de migración, para aislar el patrón de las tasas retrospectivas más altas de migración para los desempleados. Se obtiene resultados similares para la propensión que tienen a …
The Migration Experience of New York Puerto Ricans
Prospective return migrants to Puerto Rico and prospective permanent residents in New York are examined with respect to a number of factors that relate to their return migration choice, such as ties with Puerto Rico and visits back to the island. Although the significance of the study is reduced by the small sample used, the important question raised of how to identify prospective return migrants should certainly stimulate further research. In fa…
