Omaha Profile Of Change, Center For Public Affairs Research (Cpar) Jan 1973

Omaha Profile Of Change, Center For Public Affairs Research (Cpar)

Publications

The age structure of a population provides a base for assessing present social and economic conditions as well as the starting point for predicting future population trends.

With an overall median age of 32.0 years, Omaha's population in 1950 (the unshaded population pyramid on page 3) had a sizeable proportion of its population of working age, but lacked school-age and young adult population. The four areas for which data were available paralleled the city's profile, with the closest match in the Northeast and Southeast.


Occupational Estimates And Projections Of The Omaha Smsa, David W. Hinton Jan 1973

Occupational Estimates And Projections Of The Omaha Smsa, David W. Hinton

Publications

Local and regional planners have long recognized the need for detailed information on past, present, and projected occupational needs. Ideally, data on: (I) the number of workers employed, (2) their years of job experience, (3) their years and type of job training, (4) the number of workers to retire in the near future, (5) the number of new workers needed due to expected expansion, and (6) the salary levels of the various occupations for each firm and industry in the local economy should be available to describe occupational patterns.

Nebraska Population Projections: State, County, Region, And Town: 1975-2020, Vernon Renshaw, John P. Zipay, Duane Hackmann

Publications

Many types of planning efforts depend on information about the future size and composition of the population. The projections in this report are intended for use in planning. Even under the best of circumstances, however, making projections that accurately indicate future prospects is difficult. Therefore, caution should be exercised when using these or any population projections.

The population projections in this report are the direct product of specific assumptions about future trends infertility, mortality, and migration. These assumptions, in turn, are based on information about past trends in factors which are considered to be the principal determinants of population change. …

Center for Survey Research Publications

In January of 1972, the staff and resident representatives of the Worcester Model Cities neighborhood contracted the Survey Research Program to work with them to conduct a survey of neighborhood residents.

The project, as it was designed and as it was carried out, was a joint effort. A committee of residents and …

Omaha Housing Marketing: An Appraisal Of The Occupancy Potential For Subsidized Rental Units, 1971-1973, Ralph H. Todd, David W. Hinton

Publications

This study provides an analysis of market conditions for subsidized dwelling on its for a two year period from September 1971 to September 1973. It emerged because of the strong and prevailing belief that there exists today in the Omaha Housing Market Area (HMAl an urgent and unmet need for a large number of safe, decent dwelling units available at prices or rents that low and moderate income families can afford. The number of inadequate dwelling units (those lacking plumbing facilities or deteriorating or dilapidated), and the number of persons living below poverty level incomes are suggestive of the fact …
