Change and progress a comparative study
Abstract
"Carr-Square, a 658-unit housing development of which a 25 percent sample was taken for this study is located in the Central City of St. Louis. This immediate area is composed of three other housing developments with a population of approximately 12, 300 people and private dwellings with approximately 6, 000 people. The total area is composed of low income families. In the 159 households surveyed the average family size was 3. 35 persons and the range in size was from one to twelve persons. Over half of the families had children and the average number of children of these households was 3. 63. Only 2 percent of the unmarried youth at home were between the ages of 20 and 21. Of the remainder over half of the children were 6 to 14 years of age and others were equally divided between children under 5 and those 15 through 19. Half of these families had no male household head."--Foreword.
