Description
Five innovative methods of establishing the population characteristics of small areas are introduced and evaluated in this book. Changes in communities can be slow, but recent history has seen huge growth in some areas and depopulation of others. As a result, population estimating has grown up under pressure from legislators and administrators who place a high premium on validity. The contributors to this volume provide ideas that have been tested in practice, anticipate the usual types of error, and are suitable for different purposes.
