Abstract
County and City Population Estimates for 1964 (E. S. Wallace and E. L. Hauswald)
During 1964 Nebraska's total population grew by less than one-half of one percent to reach a year-end total of 1,498,375. The percentage increase is less than one-fourth of that achieved in each of the preceding three years since the 1960 census, but appears to be in line with the 1964 increases of 0.2% and 0.5% respectively in the state's civilian labor force and number or employed persons reported in January by the state Department of Labor. Our figures also appears to be in line with the official Census Bureau estimate of 1,480,000 persons for Nebraska as of July 1, 1964. (The Census Bureau estimates the state population as of July 1 each year, but does not make county estimates.)
Business Summary (Kim McNealy)
In January, the dollar volume of business for Nebraska fell .6% from January, 1964, and 2.7% from December. For the U.S. the same index shows a 7.8% increase over January, 1964, and a 3.8% rise over December. The physical volume of business is up in both Nebraska and the U.S. from January and December, 1964. In the individual series for Nebraska, cash farm marketings had the greatest decline from December. Employment shows a slight growth in Nebraska and little change nationally over December.
