Family Status - a Dimension of the Social Topography of Zagreb
Bašić Ksenija
Abstract
Distribution of the family status in the Zagreb area displays a typical concentric pattern, with an increase in family size and average living area, and decreased average age of inhabitants, according to the distance from the centre. A marked family character is typical for the new suburban housing estates – a destination of the most intra-urban migrations as well as the migrations into the town, where younger population takes most part. Renewed increase in the average age of the population in the peri-urban region decreases the family character of the town's outskirts.
