    This study updates previous research on declining urban populations, identifying population loss in towns between 1970 and 1989. It examines geographical and economic factors of these shrinking urban centers over three decades.

    Area of Science:

    • Urban Studies
    • Demography
    • Economic Geography

    Background:

    • Previous research identified urban population decline in towns between 1959-1970.
    • Recent census data from 1979 and 1989 provide updated information on urban centers.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To update the analysis of urban population decline.
    • To identify urban centers with declining populations from 1970 to 1989.
    • To assess geographical, economic, and size characteristics of these centers.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of census data for urban centers with populations of 15,000 or more.
    • Identification of population changes between 1970 and 1989.
    • Comparative analysis with data from 1959-1970.

    Main Results:

    • Identified specific urban centers experiencing population decline between 1970 and 1989.
    • Characterized these declining centers based on geographical, economic, and size attributes.
    • Established a 30-year perspective on urban population dynamics.

    Conclusions:

    • Population decline in urban centers is a persistent phenomenon over three decades.
    • Geographical and economic factors influence urban population trends.
    • Understanding these dynamics is crucial for urban planning and policy.
