U.S. population : where we are, where we're going

Author:	Population Reference Bureau.
Publisher:	Washington, D.C. : Population Reference Bureau, 1982.
Series:	Population bulletin, v. 37, no. 2.
Edition/Format:	Book : EnglishView all editions and formats
Summary:	This Bulletin reviews recent trends in the dynamics and character of the U.S. population, the outlook for the remainder of the 1980s, and prospects for long-term growth. Estimated at 232 million as of mid-1982, the U.S. population is currently growing at 1 percent a year, one of the developed world's highest growth rates. Natural increase (births minus daths) still adds some 1.7 million people a year, despite the rapid post-baby boom fall in fertility to a near-record low of 1.9 births per woman in 1981. With increasing numbers of refugees, net legal immigration averaged 600,000 a year in 1979-81 and the net inflow of illegal immigrants may now be 500,000 a year. Uncertainty over potentially large numbers of immigrapnts complicates projections of future U.S. population size. Currently, the U.S. death rate is at an all-time low. More than half the population now resides in the South and West. Rural areas and small towns grew faster than urban areas in the 1970s for the first time in over a century. Educational attainment is at an all-time high, as is labor force participation, due to increasing employment among women and the baby boom generation's arrival at working ages. The age composition of the population, with the bulge of the baby boom generation surrounded by the older :depression" generation born during the 1930s and the younger "baby bust" generation born since the end of the 1960s, presents special problems for U.S. society.  Read more...
