The Drift Toward the Subur b-.

In attempting To discover from the
censIts returns whether the city or the
suburban population in and about New
York has grown the more rapidly in the
last ten wears, several difficulties are met
with There is of course much subur-
ban land in the outlying boroughs, and
large parts of some of the counties ada
cent to the city lie beyond the Commut-
ing zone II wa accept the five river
counties in New Jersey a. suburban.
shall We include also an equal number
of counties in New York and Connect
cut? II W. do. such extensive and dis
tant counties as Rockland Suffolk and
Fairfield will have 10 be- embraced in the
list In that case the suburban area
about New York would comprise not
fewer than ,, las square miles, a territory
three times the size Of the State OF
Rhode Island Obviously the computa-
ton will be- far from exact il the ten
counties adjacent TO New York are
classed as suburban and set OF against
the five boroughs of the city. How
ever a comparison even on this basis
Yields astonishing results. II shows an
increase of I2.l per cent in the subur-
ban as against 3s.7 per cent IN the city
population.
4 comparison between the five New
York and Connecticut counties on the
one hand and the i've New Jersey co,in-
ties on the other would hardly be valid.
owing TO the smaller more compact and
more easily accessible territory covered
by the latter. II may be noted. however.
that the largest percentage Of suburban
growth was in Bergen county. and the
next largest in Westminster county.
The notable emigration Of city folk
into the country reflected by the census
has been very largely in anticipation Of
improvements which arc only just now
coming into Use. No doubt the subur-
ban growth OF the next five years will
be "a great il not greater than that Of
tho last ten: and. Curiously enough. the
existing industrial depression will help
To make il so. Since the panic multi
tude Of land companies operating in
the suburbs have found it all but I'M
possible TO sell vacant land because the
community has lost It's taste for specu-
ation, even though purchases can be
made on tn. instalmcnt plan. The COM
panies have been obliged To- change the
character of their business, looking for
customers among homeseekers instead
OF among buyers for a rise.
Consequently an extraordinary num-
Der OF houses has been built in the
suburbs in the last two Years. houses
which as a result Of competition are
offered on remarkably easy terms of
payment. The committing statistics
published by some of the railways bear
out the claim OF suburban. development
companies that they are selling HOUSES
on larger scale now than before the
DaIll'.
