| Abstract | Several demographic aspects of population concentration and deconcentration within the nonmetropolitan sector during 1960-1984 are examined using census data. Relative rates of urban and rural growth during 1960-70, 1970-80, and 1980-84 are compared. Shifts in the proportion of nonmetropolitan counties experiencing rural growth during 1980-84 are identified. The changing proportion of counties experiencing urban-rural deconcentration are documented. Temporal shifts in the character of nonmetropolitan urban-rural deconcentration are studied. Findings indicated that the 1970s saw a widespread pattern of population deconcentration within the country. This included population decline in the nation's largest cities, a continuing pattern of metropolitan suburbanization, more rapid growth in smaller than larger Metropolitan Statistical Areas, population redistribution away from the densely-settled North, and a reversal in growth patterns between metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas. The 1970s produced a widespread pattern of growth favoring rural over urban nonmetropolitan areas, affecting most areas of the country and types of counties. The unprecedented pattern of urban-rural deconcentration continued into the 1980s, despite a diminution in overall levels of nonmetropolitan growth and a return to faster overall metropolitan than nonmetropolitan growth. The interdependence between the demographic process and many interrelated aspects of the economy and society makes predictions about future population deconcentrations difficult. (NEC) |
