This study examines state- and county-level data on population, age, race and ethnicity, housing occupancy and housing tenure, education, labor force, employment and unemployment, income and poverty, health insurance coverage, disability status, migration patterns, and veteran status from the 2011-2015 American Community Survey (ACS) for the 13…

This study examines state- and county-level data on population, age, race and ethnicity, housing occupancy and housing tenure, education, labor force, employment and unemployment, income and poverty, health insurance coverage, disability status, migration patterns, and veteran status from the 2010-2014 American Community Survey (ACS) for the 13…

This article presents a method for facilitating the explanation of regional patterns of population change by emphasizing both cartographic clarity and meaningful geographic typologies. (Author)

The result of cooperative research between Statistics Canada and the United States Bureau of the Census, this report presents tabulations of the demographic, economic, and social characteristics of persons born in Canada and counted in the U. S. Census of 1980 along with persons born in the United States and counted in the Canadian census of 1981.…

In this study migration is examined as a component of population change. Decisions involved in migration are discussed. Source of migration data are suggested. Generalized in-migration and out-migration fields are described. Migration patterns before 1975 and recent migration patterns are examined and decisions underlying the latter are analyzed.…

Research in population trends is reviewed in this report. The background of population research is examined in reference to methodology and costs. Research conducted by demographers and other population scientists are compared in four areas: fertility, mortality, migration and population redistribution, and population composition and change.…

A total of 19 charts, each with a brief narrative interpretation, present information on major features of population trends in the United States. Residents of 212 metropolitan areas (central cities with population of 50,000 or more) equalled 64 percent of the population of the U.S. in 1968. The distribution of the population differed greatly by…

The low fertility of Western industrial nations is likely to become a permanent condition; in the absence of immigration, populations with below-replacement fertility will eventually decline in size. But at the same time fertility is declining, international migration to the West is accelerating. Legal immigration to the United States rose from…

This report presents population estimates for July 1, 1974, and provisional estimates for July 1, 1975, for all counties and county equivalents in the United States, by state. Estimates are also shown for standard metropolitan statistical areas, New England county metropolitan areas, and 13 standard consolidated statistical areas. The estimates,…

The purpose of this research project was to compile and analyze data concerning the composition and geographic distribution of South Africa's population for the purpose of future educational planning to meet the needs of four population groups. This document contains statistics and conclusions on: (1) the role of population shifts and…

The United States is a highly urbanized nation with space in abundance, yet large portions of its national territory are emptying out. The counterpart of this pervasive population decline is a highly selective pattern of growth, conferred by a national system of migration flows that has increasingly favored a certain few metropolitan areas. This…

Examines migration dynamics for metropolitan areas that suggest immigration and internal migration processes are leading to a greater demographic balkanization--a spatial segmentation of the population by race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status across metropolitan areas. A brief overview of migration at the state level is also provided. (GR)

The estimates in this report are the product of research conducted over the past decade. They represent an extension of the Administrative Records method, the newest of the estimating techniques used at the U.S. Census Bureau for producing population estimates. Two chapters are devoted to a detailed discussion of the methodology used to derive the…

This document contains the information kit developed for the annual Model Summit Conferences for schools in the Victoria, British Columbia (Canada) and surrounding school districts. Materials germane to the conference topic were compiled and assembled for participants. The materials are of current interest, concise, simple and provide a balanced…
