POPULATION GROWTH AND ADMINISTRATIVE VARIATIONS IN SMALL CITIES1

Alvin D. Sokolow

Review of Policy Research, 1982, vol. 2, issue 1, 72-85

Abstract: This seven city study of administrative arrangements finds that small municipal governments deal with rapid growth in a variety of ways. Some employ central executives, some expand the duties of incumbent officials, and others turn to consultants and outside sources of aid. Accordingly, more or less population increase in a community is not necessarily related to either the kind or degree of administrative change, at least in the short term.
