| Abstract: | Regional income distributions are analyzed and tested for convergence and divergence in the 1970s. The methodology is the same as that recently used to show the almost complete convergence of the South and Non-South. This paper disaggregates the Non-South into major regions consisting of the West, Midwest, and Northeast. Tests for rank dominance reveal surprising results. Income distributions in the major regions of the Non-South were equivalent in 1969, and the South was uniformly dominated. |
