Heretofore the bulk of the sociological studies in non-census areas have been confined to participant observation, case studies, and to other essentially qualitative methodological techniques. In this study a quantitative approach is attempted by adapting the area-probability sampling method to a city lacking recent census data, street names, or numbers. The findings indicate a noticeable change in the status of women of Amman, with participation in education, occupations, and social activities emerging as the leading contributory factors
