Household diversity and migration in mid‐life: Understanding residential mobility among 45–64 year olds in Melbourne, Australia
This paper focuses on the residential mobility of middle‐aged persons, not yet retired, an understudied cohort in mobility research. From the 1950s to the 1980s, mobility studies pointed to mid‐life as a settled stage in terms of family, work and housing. Recent demographic and social changes, however, have led to these years being typified by a wide gamut of living arrangements that have complicated decisions about, and patterns of, residential …
Toward a New Conceptualization of Settlements for Demography
It has long been recognized that where people live and work can be a relevant factor in helping to explain demographic behavior, yet the treatment of location in censuses and surveys remains surprisingly crude. Emphasis is still being given to the urban-rural dichotomy based on definitions that most countries around the world introduced 40 to 50 years ago and have modified little since. Given the increase in the complexity of settlement systems i…
A Changing Demographic Regime and Evolving Poly centric Urban Regions: Consequences for the Size, Composition and Distribution of City Populations
The demographic regime in western Europe and many other countries of the developed world is now very different from that of 30-40 years ago and is continuing to evolve. At the same time, settlement systems have been altering significantly in spatial structure, notably in terms of the emergence of polycentric urban configurations. This paper examines the nature of these two sets of changes and searches for linkages between them. First, it outlines…

Population Change and Migration in Britain since 1981: Evidence for Continuing Deconcentration
The counterurbanisation decade of the 1970s appears to have been followed by a period of more mixed trends in migration between metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas. This author examines the experience of Great Britain against the background of developments reported for other countries. The British Census small-area statistics are used to calculate 1981-91 rates of population change for a typology of local labour-market areas in order to test f…
Urban and Regional Demographic Trends in the Developed World
This is the first in a planned series of review essays on urban and regional demographic trends in developed countries. Two recent trends are identified. One is the acceleration of population ageing resulting primarily from the decline in fertility rates since the early 1960s. The other relates to changes in the size and composition of households consequent upon lower fertility rising divorce rates and other sources of household fission. The rema…

Local Economic Performance in Britain during the Late 1980s: The Results of the Third Booming Towns Study
The principal results of the third and latest Booming Towns study are presented. The patterns of local economic performance across Britain's 280 local labour market areas for the late 1980s are examined and the degree of variation within regions compared with that between regions. In particular, the extent to which the economic recovery which began in London around 1983 penetrated across the country over this period is assessed and the effects of…

Research Policy and Review 35. The Booming Towns Studies: Methodological Issues
In this paper the value of the Booming Towns approach to ranking local areas on the basis of their economic performance is assessed. More specifically, detailed methodological issues, such as the choice of appropriate areal units, the selection of indicator variables, and the manner of combining and ranking indicators to derive synthetic indices are discussed, with reference to possible alternative approaches
