Nebraska Poised For Lead In Midwest Population Growth
Kansas City economist James Alcott predicts Nebraska will show the fastest population growth among six Midwest states from now to 1975. The January Business in Nebraska report forecasts Nebraska rising to 28th in urban share by 1975 and 63 percent urban. Missouri remains most urbanized at 72 percent. The Midwest economy should mirror national trends with manufacturing growth and agriculture decline, and by 1975 no Midwest state will exceed the U.S. per capita income average of 3400 dollars.
