This document summarizes a presentation about the changing demographics of Southern New England. It discusses trends showing the population becoming slightly larger, more diverse, and significantly older. The presentation examines data on population growth, race and ethnicity, and age profiles from the US Census Bureau and other sources. It projects that the region will continue growing older, with more residents over age 60 and fewer under 30 by 2030 compared to 2010. This will have implications for housing, healthcare, transportation, and other regional planning needs.
The decennial census determines the allocation of hundreds of billions of federal program dollars. Federal agencies and private entities use data on race, ethnicity, national origin, sex, age, and disability to determine where disparities exist and where community groups could assist. This workshop brings together professionals working to collect data for the census to discuss recently analyzed data with community groups searching for information to support program objectives and goals.

The deck provides a detailed analysis of academic outcomes in Southern states, placing them in historical, economic, and political context. It also traces the development of public schools in the South and shows that the modern education reform movement has its roots in the South, where strategies like accountability, charter schools, private school choice, and school governance reform were first piloted.

Wide Open Spaces: Schooling in Rural America TodayJeremy Knight
Fourteen percent of the nation’s population lives in rural communities, and one in five K-12 students attends a rural school — a substantial proportion of America’s school population. Despite increased attention from the national education policy community in recent years, too many rural communities and schools continue to struggle to provide their students with quality educational opportunities. Common approaches to education reform that may work in urban communities often fail to take into account the unique assets and challenges facing rural schools.
“Wide Open Spaces: Schooling in Rural America Today” provides education policymakers with a factbase on America’s rural schools and communities: the economic and academic challenges they face, their unique assets, and opportunities for improvement. This resource highlights some of the challenges facing schools and students, including limited economic opportunity, poor access to healthcare, and social challenges like drug addiction. It also provides an overview of available data on student outcomes, including National Assessment of Educational Progress data and graduation rates. These data reveal that while rural students appear to be doing better on average than students in some other geographies, there are real gaps among subgroups and barriers to postsecondary opportunities that hinder many rural students from achieving their full academic potential.
Even so, rural communities’ assets provide opportunities to create and sustain meaningful change. Compared with other geographies, rural communities tend to place high value on civic and community engagement and support tight-knit networks among residents. Community members tend to have a deep sense of and commitment to place that dates back generations. And at a state and national level, rural communities represent a powerful political voice.
“Wide Open Spaces: Schooling in Rural America Today” aims to equip advocates, decision-makers, and other stakeholders with a shared understanding of rural education to generate a more accurate and nuanced policy response.

__________
At its optimistic best, America has embraced its identity as the world’s melting pot. Today it is on the cusp of becoming a country with no racial majority, and new minorities are poised to exert a profound impact on U.S. society, economy, and politics.
Through a compelling narrative and eye-catching charts and maps, eminent demographer William H. Frey interprets and expounds on the dramatic growth of minority populations in the United States. He finds that without these expanding groups, America could face a bleak future: this new generation of young minorities, who are having children at a faster rate than whites, is infusing our aging labor force with vitality and innovation.
Diversity Explosion shares the good news about diversity in the coming decades, and the more globalized, multiracial country that U.S. is becoming.

Broad ranging impacts
• Increased demand for different forms of housing
• Health care services, transit needs, pressure on municipal revenues
• Fewer college aged-students in next several decades
Trends likely to vary by sub-region
• Boston – steady in-migration of college-aged residents
• Metro suburbs – gain young families & school-aged children
• Berkshires/Cape & Islands – in-migration of retirees
Many unknowns in the years ahead
• Policy: e.g. Debates on federal immigration/VISA policy
• Climate change: Impacts on migration & infrastructure
• Economic opportunities in the region

38. Summary:
International migration is a significant contributor to population growth and maintenance, particularly in the
Northeast as our region continues to lose domestic population to the South and West.
The US, and Northeast States in particular, together with border states like California and Texas, have a long
history as a destination for the Foreign Born; however immigration is starting to disperse to other parts of the
Unites States in more recent years.
Place of Birth of the Foreign Born population is also shifting over time, with a smaller percentage immigrating
from Europe, and increasing percentages immigrating from Asia and Latin America, including South and Central
America. As these origins also tend to have lower median ages than European countries, recent immigrants
contribute to a younger population in the region.
The profile of the Foreign Born in the MA, CT, and RI region differs from the national profile in many significant
ways. The Foreign Born in our region tend to have higher levels of educational attainment than the U.S.
Foreign Born, particularly at the Advanced Degree level.
Place of birth for the Foreign Born in this region also varies substantially from the U.S. profile, with a higher
percentages originating in Europe, South America, the Caribbean, and other world regions, and a drastically
smaller percentage (10 times smaller) originating in Mexico. For both the US and the region, the percentage of
foreign born from Latin America and Asia has been increasing over time.
A younger age profile together with increasing levels of educational attainment among the foreign born serve
to revitalize the regions workforce and also to off-set the age-dependency ratio issues looming ahead for the
ageing New England region.

Who Comes, Who Goes, and Why We Might Care

Who Do We Plan For – The Demographics of Southern New England
Southern New England Planning Conference
October 17, 2013
41. Background
• Students who go to college and, especially, who graduate
from college have a highly desirable attribute: human capital
– In general, states and cities would like to attract—and keep—these
individuals
• When students stay put after graduation, they not only
work, but also form households, buy homes, and consume
• I’ll do three things in the next several minutes:
– In-, Out-, and Net migration of college students for
Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island
– The ―quality‖ of schools involved on both sides
Franklin | Who Do We Plan For – The Demographics of Southern New England | SNEAPA 2013
42. Basic Data
• Integrated Post Secondary Education Database
(IPEDS), for 2008
– Tabulates state of residence for college freshmen at time of
application
– All two- and four-year public and private (non-profit) schools
offering at least an associate’s degree and having ―full-time, first
time undergraduates‖
– Institution-level data are aggregated by state to produce state-tostate flows of college freshmen
• Unit of observation is the institution, not the student
– We don’t observe any attributes of actual students
– But we can make use of information about the
quality/characteristics of the school
Franklin | Who Do We Plan For – The Demographics of Southern New England | SNEAPA 2013
43. Measuring ―Quality‖
• Following e.g. Carnevale & Rose (2004), Hoxby and Avery (2013), we use
Barron’s Profiles of American Colleges (2009) to classify schools as:
– High quality (n=181): Barron’s most and highly competitive categories
• e.g. Wesleyan, Amherst College, or Tufts, Smith College, Boston Univ.
– Medium quality (n=270): Barron’s very competitive category
• e.g. Fairfield University, Salve Regina University
– Lower quality (n=828): Barron’s competitive and less competitive categories
• e.g. Umass Dartmouth, Central Connecticut State Univ., URI, Rhode Island College
– Other (n=529): Non-competitive or special schools
– Community colleges (n=1,022): This comes from IPEDS

44. Measuring Flow v. Counterflow
• Could use net migration, but resulting values are
dependent on population size (and by extension size of
geographic unit)
• An alternative is demographic effectiveness or efficiency
(as used by e.g. Plane or Shryock):
E j =100(Net j / Gross j )
• This measure captures the extent to which all the
movement in and out actually results in redistribution of
population
– Values close to zero suggest inefficiency; higher values (- and +)
indicate efficiency: migration results in population change
– Of course, compositionally, the population could change
substantially, even if there’s no net redistribution of people
Franklin | Who Do We Plan For – The Demographics of Southern New England | SNEAPA 2013
50. Interstate Student Trading in Southern New England
• 24 percent of Connecticut’s out-migrating freshmen
head to Massachusetts, which is the most popular state
to go to (only 9 percent to Rhode Island)
• 10 percent of students leaving Massachusetts go to
Connecticut and 15 percent to Rhode Island
– Actually New York is the most popular destination of all the
states
• When students leave Rhode Island, 37 percent go to
schools in Massachusetts and 10 percent to Connecticut

52. Conclusions (Why Should We Care?)
• Whether students stay or go can matter (or at least be
interesting) for a few reasons:
1.
2.
Students often stay put in the area in which they went to college
(although New England is so small, who knows what the impact for us
really is)
If students—especially the brightest—are leaving because they have to
and not because they want to, that’s a shame
•
3.
When states exchange students of the same quality (so, low
effectiveness), what’s actually accomplished?
•
4.
i.e., is migration a function of home state school quality and/or capacity?
For CT, MA, and RI, migration effectiveness between these states for high
quality schools is relatively low (circa 16-18 effectiveness)
Highly efficient flows indicate redistribution of high quality (or low
quality) students
•
We see this for low quality schools

69. Shift in Housing Demand Young Households
All of these trends suggest that future demand
for housing may require a greater supply of multiunit housing – both condo and rental – and less
single-family housing
Younger households may also wish to live closer
to the city or in village centers – less so in farflung suburbs
Dukakis Center for Urban & Regional Policy www.northeastern.edu/dukakiscenter
70. Shift in Housing Demand –
Aging Baby Boomers
Aging Boomers may wish to “age in place” but not in
their current homes
They may wish to remain near friends and familiar
local community amenities
As such, they may give up their large single family
homes for smaller multi-family housing … but in the
communities where they now live
Dukakis Center for Urban & Regional Policy www.northeastern.edu/dukakiscenter
71. Shift in Housing Demand –
Need for More Affordable Units
Declining incomes for renter households means we
need to find more affordable units or they will face
ever larger housing hurdles
This means we need to free up rental housing for
low and moderate income families
And it means we need to build more affordable units
as part of new developments

Policy Focus Areas:

The Kitty and Michael Dukakis Center for Urban & Regional Policy conducts interdisciplinary research,
in collaboration with civic leaders and scholars both within and beyond Northeastern University, to
identify and implement real solutions to the critical challenges facing urban areas throughout Greater
Boston, the Commonwealth, and the nation.
Founded in 1999 as a “think and do” tank, the Dukakis Center’s collaborative research and problemsolving model applies powerful data analysis, multidisciplinary research and evaluation techniques,
and a policy-driven perspective to address a wide range of issues facing cities, towns, and suburbs,
with a particular emphasis on the greater Boston region. The Dukakis Center works to catalyze broadbased efforts to solve urban problems, acting as both a convener and a trusted and committed partner
to local, state, and national agencies and organizations.
In November 2008 the Center was renamed in honor of Kitty and Michael Dukakis for the
extraordinary work that both of them have done to make the City of Boston, the Commonwealth, and
the nation a better place to live and work.
