Population redistribution within U.S. suburban rings between 1970 and 1975 was characterized by frequent population declines for individual suburbs. On the whole, recent spatial patterns of suburban population decline are similar in nature, if not overall levels, to those found in the 1950s and 1960s. Population decline is greatest in the inner suburbs, and is also evident, to some extent, in the most peripheral suburbs. Patterns for all metropolitan areas mask clear variation among metropolitan areas. This variation is related to metropolitan age or historical period of development.
1970年至1975年间，美国郊区环带内的人口再分布特点是个别郊区人口频繁减少。总体而言，近期郊区人口减少的空间模式在本质上与20世纪50年代和60年代的模式相似，即便总体水平有所不同。人口减少在近郊区最为严重，在某种程度上，最外围的郊区也很明显。所有大都市区的模式掩盖了各大都市区之间明显的差异。这种差异与大都市区的发展年代或历史时期有关。
