    Citywide Conditions Chapter 4 — Citywide Conditions 29 Th e reality that became Map 9 Youngstown after the 1951 & 1974 plans only slightly resembles the intentions of the planners. Th e current land use (see Map 9) shows prescribed uses peppered with widespread non- conforming uses. It demonstrates far too much commercial, industrial and residential use for a city of 82,000. Th e current land use shows the need to plan for the new reality of a smaller city. 30 Chapter 4 — Citywide Conditions Population Th e City of Youngstown has experienced an average of 16% population decline every ten years for the past 40 years and has lost over half its total population. It is anticipated that this trend will slow and the population will stabilize. Race White Black Other Th e racial make up the City has changed over time as well. Twenty years ago 64% of the population was white and by 2000, it was just over 50%. Th e city had become racially balanced. Age Th e majority of the population of the city in 2000 was between 20 and 54 years old. An important factor to consider is that of the 25.3 % of the population over the age of 55 years old, 17.4 % were over the age of 65.

  • O'neill, MOIRA, MA AUGUST 2019 GEOGRAPHY EVOLUTION and COOPERATION in the YOUNGSTOWN AREA (175 Pp.)
    O’NEILL, MOIRA, M.A. AUGUST 2019 GEOGRAPHY EVOLUTION AND COOPERATION IN THE YOUNGSTOWN AREA (175 pp.) Thesis Advisor: David H. Kaplan The ongoing populist backlash against the liberal-democratic world order has strong geographical dimensions and demands a reckoning with growing spatial inequality. Until now, economic geography has largely viewed the divergent trajectories of local and regional economies as a either a process of evolutionary selection or the byproduct of localized institutional structures. However, this thesis proposes a new framework to synthesize the two, conceptualizing geographical inequality as the result of agent-driven equilibrium selection within an evolving complex system. Using a post-industrial community in eastern Ohio as a case, three studies demonstrate the usefulness of this approach. First, an historical survey traces the rise, stagnation, and decline of the Youngstown area’s economy as the result of changing competitive landscapes and the (in)ability of local institutions to coordinate a response. Second, a quantitative analysis relates initial community characteristics to outcomes following the Great Recession. Here, neighborhood economic norms and membership effects offered the most compelling explanation for why some communities were resilient in the face of the shock while others fared poorly. Third, a mixed-methods approach combines qualitative fieldwork with non- cooperative game theory and illustrates how institutional coordination failure has trapped much of the Mahoning Valley in a sub-optimal state of development. The overwhelming evidence from these studies leads to the conclusion that for place economies, evolutionary fitness should be considered synonymous with institutional fitness. That is, norms around cooperation and economic activity are the driving forces behind local development outcomes amidst macroeconomic change.
