Abstract: Inmigrants did not necessarily have an advantage over long-term residents in obtaining jobs in a rapidly growing nonmetro community in south-central Kentucky. Most new workers in the area were youth and/or women. New firms were an important source of new jobs, particularly in the private service sector.
