Excerpt from A Summary of Selected Characteristics of the Urban and Rural Populations, by State, 1960 Data were selected to permit-rural-urban comparisons in regard to some of the more important social and economic characteristics of the population. This report is intended as a convenient source of comparative data on the farm and nonfarm populations, and not as an analysis of rural - urban differences. Information is presented under four broad categories: (1) Demographic characteristics, including size of population, median age, average size of family, and measures of fertility and mobil ity. (2) Economic characteristics, such as measures of unemployment, occupational distributions, and age, earnings, and weeks worked for employed males. In the case of the last three measures, census data were not published by urban - rural residence, and information is shown for the State as a whole. (3) Educational characteristics, including information on school enrollment, retardation in school, .estimates of school dropouts, and measures of educational attainment. (4) Housing characteristics and availability of facilities, including the proportion of housing units in deteriorated or dilapidated condition, and the proportion reporting the availability of home freezers, automobiles, and telephones. These three facilities are among the items included in the farm operator level-of-living index and supply a basis for comparing the relative position of the farm and nonfarm populations in regard to availability of the facilities.
