  • 摘要:This study examined the factors that influenced population change in 875 counties in the southeasternUnited States between 1970 and 2000, using U.S. Census data. Binary logistic regression models were used toexamine the relationship between socioeconomic factors and population change. The results of marginalprobability estimates indicate that race and employment factors have been strongly related to populationchange in these counties. African-American-dominant counties have lost population to urban areas of morediverse counties. Our results suggest that individuals place high importance on better education, jobopportunities, and living conditions in their decisions to move from their traditional places to new places.Additionally, rural counties need to develop resilience by improving community capital and quality of lifeamenities to sustain rural population and attract more retirees in rural corridors
