The 11 tables look at the following: changes in occupational status of…

Using the National Longitudinal Surveys of Work Experience for Mature Men and Young Men, the paper compares the occupational structure of nonmetro and metro areas in 1971 and 1976, analyzes occupational mobility patterns of both groups in each area, and examines the relationship between occupational mobility and earnings. Transition matrices and…
