摘要本文编制了3428个美国郊区的郊区衰落指数。这一指数的结果被用来衡量从1980年到2000年全国不同地区的老郊区、近郊和新郊区的流行率和下降程度。总体模式是在选定的较老的近郊地区出现衰退，特别是那些在1950至1969年间建造住房的地区，以及那些少数民族人口不断增加的地区。区域分析显示，南部和中西部的老旧内郊陷入危机的比例最高。1939年以前建造住房的郊区成为持续富裕的地区。
Abstract This article develops an index of suburban decline for 3,428 U.S. suburbs. The results of this index were used to measure the prevalence and extent of decline for older, inner suburbs and newer suburbs across the nation and in different regions from 1980 to 2000. The general pattern is one of decline in selected older, inner suburbs, especially those with housing built between 1950 and 1969 and those with increasing minority populations. Regional analysis reveals that the South and the Midwest had the highest proportion of older, inner suburbs in crisis. Suburbs with housing built before 1939 emerged as areas of continuing affluence.
