Building upon community and organizational theory [the authors] assess how three key components of community structure--managerial clerical and professional and technical support--respond to population size growth and decline. The units are 1395 relatively autonomous U.S. nonmetropolitan cities. For places that grew between 1960 and 1970 [the] hypotheses were confirmed that a positive association exists between both population size and growth and the proportion of employed in professional and clerical occupations. A negative association for the managerial component is consistent with findings in organizational research. Smaller but similar associations were generally found for declining places. Status of communities as administrative centers and population change in their hinterlands are introduced as additional variables. (EXCERPT
