Computer Use by Rural Workers is Rapidly Increasing

Author

  • Kusmin, Lorin

Abstract

The percentage of rural workers who use computers on the job doubled from 18 in 1984 to 36 in 1993, yet the percentage of urban workers using computers remains higher. Most of the difference in on-the-job computer use between urban and rural areas reflects greater use among professional, managerial, and white-collar workers who are a larger share of the urban workforce and less use among the self-employed and lower educated workers who are a larger share of the rural workforce.
