Rural to urban shift continues into mid 1970s says USDA
A USDA report shows rural areas and small towns grew 6.6 percent from 1970 to 1975 while metropolitan areas grew 4.1 percent. Farm population declined about 850000, 8.7 percent, as nonfarm rural residents increased. Beale cites rising rural amenities and city problems driving the trend with some shifts from city sprawl into nearby counties.
