Federal Outlays by Type of Nonmetro County

Abstract

This report uses a new method of grouping Federal payments into six categories to examine how the payments were distributed among eight types of nonmetro counties in fiscal year 1980. Federal payments to nonmetro areas were highest for the “income transfers" category (which includes Social Security) and lowest for the “agriculture'' category (which includes commodity programs and other farm programs). Per capita income transfers were highest in "retirement" counties (counties that attract retirees), suggesting that the economic base of these counties may be more stable than that of counties that depend mainly on farming, manufacturing, or mining.
