Description :
Appalachia remains a symbol of poverty in the midst of prosperity. During the 1990s it fell further behind the rest of the nation. Persistent poverty during a period of strong growth is a serious as well as an interesting subject to study. The AA. examine determinants of growth in Appalachia between 1990 and 2000. They show that employment, migration, and median household income are jointly determined by regional covariates and that county economic conditions are conditional on the performance in neighboring counties.
