Core Area Study Farmville North Carolina PDF Download

Excerpt from Core Area Study, Farmville, North Carolina: A Preliminary Plan The buying habits of different income groups vary slight ly, therefore, an investigation of such groups in the study area will divulge clues as to which products are likely to be in demand. Some items such as food have an inelastic demand, and therefore, income does not affect such sales as it does luxury items like jewelry and furs. Data describing the income distribution indicate that over half of the area's families (those having an income of less than probably can buy only the basic necessities and certainly none of the luxuries of life. It may be argued that since this is a farming community, many food products are home grown and consumed; income which would normally be expended on groceries is released for other purchases. Regardless, the majority of area families have very little to provide other necessities such as clothing, home furnishings, drugs, automobiles, etc. A bright Spot in the income dis tribution figures lies in the fact that Farmville Township, which as noted is greatly influenced by the Core Area, has the most evenly distributed income of any township other than Snow Hill.
