Creator:

Oregon State University. Extension Service and Johnson, Carly

Abstract:

Discusses three systems for classifying areas as rural or urban: the traditional Census Bureau block group system, a county-based system, and the newer Rural-Urban Commuting Area system. Examines the differences between systems and how the choice of classification system affects conclusions about rural-urban demographics.
