While analyzing the given data about the population projections and job projections, I noticed that the city of Clovis is estimated to grow at a gradual rate . With the population growth with over 60,000 people in the last 35 years , the city has a annual growth rate of 1.2%. I hypothesized that the mid-sized city would be growing way too much and too fast compared to the jobs that are projected to become available. I quickly resented my mistake and scripted the numbers to create an age dependency ratio to see who aren’t productive economically. After applying the formula, I found out that 42.9 % of the people in the total population don’t work and they don’t apply to to the workforce improvement and expansion. With that being said, it makes sense that the population’s growth correlates with the job growth in Clovis. When just over half of the population works , it makes sense not to have as many occupations . It is also obvious that every job has had a consistent growth other than occupations such as mining , agriculture, and even government. This is because the government would only significantly expand if you changed some of the state government’s policies. And as for Mining and Agriculture, times …show more content…

This essay is to discuss the appraisal process for the City Manager position at the City of Wellington, Kansas. The performance of an organization's employees is the key to the delivery of quality service in both public and nonprofit agencies (Ch. 10, Pynes). The performance evaluation is a critical component to ensure all levels of the organization are working optimally to achieve the desired output of the whole (Ch. 10, Pynes). It is important to understand the duties of the position being evaluated so that criteria of the evaluation are directly related to the duties and control of that position. In the case of the Wellington City Manager, it is important to have a base knowledge of the overall structure of the City and the local government. The City of Wellington is similar to many other communities across the nation. The City Manager provides direction and oversight to all municipal operations. Wellington is a small local government municipality with a 120 current full-time employees. In addition to the standard city services like police, fire, and emergency medical services; electric and water utilities are also offered. The City Manager’s oversight is based on the direction of the City Council and both State and Federal laws (3A, “Wellington Budget”). The Council in Wellington consists of six elected Council members and a Mayor who set the local policies. This policy becomes the responsibility of the City Manager and is used to guide organizational decisions and employees.
San Francisco is changing drastically but should it change in the first place? According to the article by CQ Researcher they are unsure as well. Although the documentary San Francisco appeared very certain that the development and changes are ruining San Francisco. Does the view about these changes depend if they are a young “techie” or regular worker that has been living in San Francisco for twenty years with their family?
Opportunities for job growth will remain rather high. This is a result of two factors, a slowing growth in population and the future retirement of the baby boomer generation (Reich, 2003). It is not the number of jobs in the future that is the problem, it is the quality of those jobs. On the whole, Reich identified two trends in job quality. The number of mundane, manufacturing jobs will decrease as well as the number of in-person service jobs, e.g. bank tellers, but growth in the number of symbolic analytical positions.
The industrial revolution was one of the causes of over population in Mexico City today. Once the revolution began people started moving to Mexico City. These people stayed in the city, started a family and a new life. Another factor that caused the overpopulation was the birth rate being higher than the death rate. (Viewpoints 263) “ This built-up was caused by people moving to Mexico City, causing a rapid growth in the population which, eventually, led to an increase of size of the city.
Finally, this paper will explore the “end product” that exists today through the works of the various authors outlined in this course and explain how Los Angeles has survived many decades of evolution, breaking new grounds and serving as the catalyst for an urban metropolis.

1. In any firm, there are usually a set number of employees that the firm will need regardless of output. If a firm is in the construction industry, then when demand falls they might lay off builders and engineers because there is no work for them, but the finance department might still have roughly the same amount of work to do even though the figures don’t look as good. Equally if production expands, they will hire more builders and engineers and keep similar nu...
Urban population refers to people living in urban areas as defined by national statistical offices. It is calculated using World Bank population estimates and urban ratios from the United Nations World Urbanization Prospects. (Galor, Oded, and David N. Weil. 2000.) Develops a unified growth model that captures the historical evolution of population and technology producing output growth. This is thoroughly discussed in Appendix B.
Tokyo is one of the most over populated cities in Japan and it has a population of 13.23 million people. People from different parts of the world choose to live in Tokyo because of the many ways it has attracted the world, since it is such a large city with beautiful sightseeings and an enjoyable atmosphere. The overpopulation in Tokyo is what causes it to be a megacity. With all the job opportunities, education, entertainment and good living conditions, this attracts people to move into the city which then causes the overpopulation of the city itself to rise up the charts, and considering recent research, it has been seen that Tokyo is on the top list of megacities as the highest populated city in Asia. This essay will be focused on how the 4 main factors, job opportunities, education, entertainment and living conditions affect the population of a city which in my case is Tokyo.

Human population growth was relatively slow for most of human history. Within the past 500 years, however, the advances made in the industrial, transportation, economic, medical, and agricultural revolutions have helped foster an exponential, "J-shaped" rise in human population (Southwick, Figure 15.1, p. 160). The statistics associated with this type of growth are particularly striking: "Human beings took more than 3 million years to reach a population of 1 billion people...The second billion came in only 130 years, the third billion in 30 years, the fourth billion in 15 years, the fifth billion in 12 years..." (Southwick, p. 159). As human population has grown, there has been simultaneous growth within the industrial sector. Both of these increases have greatly contributed to environmental problems, such as natural resource depletion, ecosystem destruction, and global climate change. Also linked with the increasing human population are many social problems, such as poverty and disease. These issues need to be addressed by policy makers in the near future in order to ensure the survival and sustainability of human life.

It is more and more apparent for companies to start changing with society. This trend of “loss of identity” is a more common one than most realize. It has become strictly about quantity rather than most importantly, the company’s quality. Not to say that change is a bad thing, but more that the reason for change being the problem. Change can conflict with cultural means, or sometimes, moral means, causing strain to occur between companies and society. Thus leading to the repetitive cycle of a company having to reinvent itself every time a new social one cultural change occurs. Ultimately, modern
An increase in human population can influence our economy. Some of the factors that are affected are unemployment, poverty and the restriction of economic expansion. When the population increases, the cost of health, education, and other areas of urban growth are affected. Unempl...
