Abstract

This report presents long-range population and employment projections for the Albuquerque Greater Urban Area (AGUA) from 1970 to 2030, using a cohort-component demographic model and alternative economic growth scenarios. Prepared for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Albuquerque District, the study forecasts population change, age and sex distributions, employment by industry, and floodplain-area population growth to support regional planning, infrastructure development, and resource management.
