OR X/C66 .2H68 ; 39 ; "June 1972." T.p.; "Report no. 71-7-01." T.p.; Includes map.; Includes bibliographical references. ; "The urban area has always been the economic center of Coos County. The urban area houses the largest aggregation of mercantile, professional and industrial firms and individuals on the entire Oregon Coast . Collectively, approximately 65 percent of the total county's employed labor force is housed within the urban area and it's [sic] environs. This represents a total of some 13,000 jobs. The recent decline in the lumber and wood products manufacturing sector has caused a general slowdown of practically all other economic activities throughout the county and the urban area. The result of this occurrence has been the materialization of general socio-economic depression throughout the county. Since 1960, the Coos County and the urban area have increased in population at a rate slower than that attained under conditions of natural increase: births minus deaths . As related to housing within the urban area, the effect of the general socio-economic depression has been to produce an extremely moderate housing market, particularly, as it relates to low and middle-income families, Generally speaking, substandard housing is available for rent or sale at middle income prices while standard housing is mostly available only at high-income prices" P. 1-2 [7-8]
