comparison among different occupational groups and among families
of varying composition.
The analysis of family expenditures in the following pages indicates
that differences in income have a predominant influence on family
patterns of spending and saving. Despite wide variations in the
outlays o f individual families, however, the number and age of family
members also have an important effect on the amounts spent at given
income levels for such categories as food, clothing, education, and
transportation other than b y automobile, and for contributions and
personal taxes. The occupational classification o f a family has rela
tively little bearing on family expenditures other than for housing and
household operation. On the other hand, the racial group in which
Columbus families belong clearly influences the pattern of family
spending and saving. A t the lower economic levels, Negro families
appear to live more closely within their current incomes than do white
families with corresponding incomes, and at the higher levels they
accumulate more substantial reserves for the future. For certain
groups o f goods and services, such as personal care and transportation
other than by automobile, however, Negro families spend more than
white families, while for food and many o f the less important cate
gories the former have substantially smaller expenditures. Expendi
tures for food, housing, and transportation other than by automobile
are all directly related to city size. Hence, although family expendi
tures for clothing and certain minor categories were lower among
white families in Columbus than among those in the smaller communi
ties, in the East Central region, the large-city families generally spend
more than others in relation to their incomes.
The Bureau o f Labor Statistics wishes to acknowledge the assistance
received from interested individuals and civic bodies, both within and
outside the Government, in addition to the agencies mentioned above.
Particular acknowledgment is due to two groups whose collaboration
must be recognized as having made these studies possible: the
W . P. A. workers who performed the field collection and office tabula
tion o f the data, and the members of the households interviewed, who
contributed the time and effort required to answer the detailed
questions in the schedules.
In view of the fact that responsibility for certain parts of this
survey was shared b y persons outside the regular staff of the Bureau
of Labor Statistics, the Bureau takes pleasure in acknowledging the
services of Elizabeth Champe and Charles H. Chase, associate regional
supervisors in the East Central cities; G. H. Pittinger, who served as
check editor, and the following persons who served as supervisors in
the various cities: Helen R . Stearns, Columbus; Minnie Landau, M uncie; Margaret A. Toepfer, New Castle; L eR oy Clements, Springfield;

In tr o d u c tio n
The analysis of the family income and expenditure data obtained
by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in the Study o f Consumer Purchases
is divided into three parts. The present volume represents the second
stage in the analysis of data collected in nine cities in the East Central
region. Volume I shows the distribution of families by income class,
occupation, family type, nativity, and home tenure. The second and
third parts of the analysis both are concerned with data on expendi
tures for family living. In the present volume, this analysis will be
confined mainly to a consideration of the size and relative importance
of expenditures for the main categories of current living, among fami
lies in these communities, with only incidental reference to the con
stituent items in these categories. As in volume I, variations associ
ated with income, occupation, and family type are of primary concern.
The third part of the analysis involves a study of the detailed items
included in each m ajor group, and will take the form of special reports
on commodities and services which will appear later as bulletin 648.
The expenditure data presented in this volume are for Columbus,
Ohio, three middle-sized cities, treated as a unit, and five small cities,
likewise analyzed together.1 Since Negroes constitute a considerable
segment of the population in Columbus, Ohio, a separate study of
expenditures of white and Negro families was made im that city.
The survey of fam ily expenditures was intended to show primarily
the way in which expenditures vary with income and certain other
characteristics of the family. It was, therefore, limited to families
iThe middle-sized cities included in the East Central region are Muncie, Ind.; New Castle, Pa.; and
Springfield, 111.; the small cities, Beaver Falls, Pa.; Conneilsville, Pa.; Logansport, Ind.; Mattoon, 111.;
and Peru, Ind. See appendix C for a complete list of the communities covered by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics and the Bureau of Home Economics.

that included a husband and wife, both native born, and that received
no relief during the year.2
The samples of families whose expenditures were studied in the
East Central region were further restricted b y excluding certain income
groups, and b y limiting the occupational groups represented in the
lower and upper portions of the income scale.3
The collection o f expenditure schedules for white families was con
fined to seven family types, eliminating thereby the least frequent
types in the community. The types included, which are shown pictorially in figure 1, may be described in terms of the number and age
of members other than husband and wife, as follows:

3 or 4 children u nder 16 (fam ilies o f 5 or 6).
1 child u nder 16, an d 4 or 5 others, regardless o f age (fam ilies o f 7
or 8 ).
These types include 97 percent of the Columbus white families
containing husband and wife, both native born. Among Columbus
Negroes, the collection of expenditure schedules was confined to the
2
The purpose of these qualifications was to eliminate as far as possible factors of economic stress, broken
family ties, and alien customs, which might tend to obscure the relationship of income, occupation, and
family type to family expenditure patterns of white and Negro families. The collection of a separate sample
of Negro families in Columbus made it possible to analyze separately the influence of special racial character
istics of the Negro group in family expenditures. Since native-born families greatly outnumber all other
national groups in the United States, it seemed wise to confine the restricted resources available for the
survey to a study of the expenditures of these relatively homogeneous groups.
In Columbus about four-fifths of the families were native-born white, less than one-tenth were foreign-born
white and slightly more than one-tenth Negro. In the middle-sized cities, the proportions of native-born
white families ranged from less than two-thirds in New Castle to over four-fifths in Springfield; the propor
tion of Negroes ranged only from 4 to 7 percent. In the small cities, the proportions of native-born white
families ranged from two-thirds of the total population in Beaver Falls to 97 percent in Mattoon; Negro
families never constituted as much as 4 percent of the total.
s Among white families those in Columbus with incomes under $500 and those in the middle-sized cities
with incomes under $250 were excluded. All occupational groups were represented for white families in the
income levels between $1,250 and $4,000 in Columbus, and between $1,000 and $2,500 in the middle-sized
cities. Between $4,000 and $5,000 in Columbus, only clerical, business, and professional families were in
cluded. Above $5,000 in Columbus and $2,500 in the middle-sized cities, only business and professional
families were studied. The data for white families in the small cities are presented in comparable income
classes for all occupational groups only between $1,000 and $3,000; above $3,000, different income combinatioDS were made for each occupational group. The lowest income class in each city unit included only wage
earners, and the two succeeding classes only wage-earner and clerical families.
Among Negro families in Columbus, wage-earner families were represented only between the $250 and the
$1,750 income levels, clerical families between the $750 and $3,000 levels, and business and professional
families between the $250 and $3,000 levels.
Families with no gainfully employed members were excluded from the sample of white families in the small
cities and of Negro families in Columbus. They were eligible among the whites in Columbus in the income
ranges between $500 and $10,000, and in the middle-sized cities between $250 and $4,000, but all expenditure
data for this group were analyzed separately.

first five family types described above, which cover 85 percent of the
Columbus Negro families with a husband and wife.4
When all families in these East Central cities are taken into consid
eration, it is found that incomes for the year 1985-36 6 averaged
highest in Columbus and lowest in the small city unit. Approx
imately half of the Columbus families had incomes under $1,315 while
the incomes of about half the families in the middle-sized cities fell
below $1,200 and half in the small cities, below $1,030.6
Over one-third o f the Columbus families were found in the income
classes under $1,000, almost one-sixth received $2,000 to $3,000, and
about one-tenth, $3,000 or more. In the middle-sized cities taken
together, about two-fifths had incomes under $1,000, another twofifths, incomes between $1,000 and $2,000, and about 1 in 7, more
than $3,000. While virtually one-half the families in the small cities
had incomes under $1,000, more than one-third fell in the classes be
tween $1,000 and $2,000, and less than 1 in 20 received $3,000 or
more during the year. These figures on family income refer to all
families, irrespective of race, nativity, and family composition, and
include those that received relief at some time during the year, as
well as those that remained independent o f public assistance.
In general, the incomes received by foreign-bom white families
averaged substantially below those of white families containing hus
band and wife, both native bom . In Columbus, for example, half
the native white families studied in 1935-36 received incomes below
$1,450, while the incomes of about half the foreign-bom families fell
below $1,180. Half the Negro families in Columbus, on the other
hand, had incomes below $700. Similarly, incomplete families gen
erally received less income than families containing husband and wife.
Of the native white families in Columbus, the incomes of half of those
that contained husband and wife were below $1,620 while the incomes
of half the broken families were lower than $885.
The various limitations that were imposed in the selection of fam
ilies eligible for the expenditure study, as well as the separation in
Columbus o f white and Negro families into two samples, resulted in
samples each of which showed a very different income distribution
from that for the communities as a whole. In Columbus, approxi
mately one-half the white families represented in the part of the Study
that deals with consumer expenditures had incomes below $1,815,
4
Certain other minor eligibility requirements were imposed to eliminate families whose living patterns
are not adapted to statistical analysis. See appendix A, on sampling, for a complete list of eligibility require
ments.
6
The report year covered a 12-month period ending not earlier than December 31,1935, and not later than
November 30, 1936. Very few schedules were collected for a year ending later than September 30, 1936,
however.
6
Median incomes in the three middle-sized cities varied from $1,069 for New Castle to $1,274 for Springfield; among the five small cities, they showed a narrower range, from $936 for Mattoon to $1,098 for Beaver
Falls.
I N T R O D U C T IO N

and about half of the Negro families had incomes under $1,000.
Among white families in the middle-sized cities, half were found in
income groups below $1,510; among those in the small city unit, half
below $1,450.7
The expenditure schedule used in the Study of Consumer Purchases
provided for recording information on family expenditures classified
under 16 categories, varying in urgency from food and shelter to
recreation, gifts, and minor items of a miscellaneous character. The
schedule contained information also on such matters as the size and
facilities o f dwellings occupied, and on the ownership of automobiles
and household equipment, including radios, phonographs, mechanical
refrigerators, washing machines, and vacuum cleaners. In addition,
account was taken o f transactions during the report year that in
creased or decreased the family assets or liabilities.8
Expenditure data covering the year 1935-36 were collected from
6,320 urban families in the East Central region.9 They showed that
as family income increases, the amounts spent for each important
category o f consumption goods and services increases. The relative
increase with income in expenditures for the different groups of items
is not the same, however.10 On the one hand, while more is spent for
food and home maintenance by families with high than with low
incomes, these two important categories declined in relative impor* Since the eligibility requirements operated to eliminate families that in general occupied a less favorable
economic position than did nonrelief native-born complete families, and since in Columbus, separate
samples were taken to represent white and Negro familes, it follows that the expenditure data cannot be
taken to represent an average family in the cities studied. Instead, the purpose of the Study is to show
how the families selected for study apportion their expenditures at different income levels, and how such
apportionment is influenced by occupational classification and family size and age composition.
8
See glossary, appendix B, for definitions of the various categories of expenditure and the items included
under each.
« Expenditure schedules were collected from 2,329 white families in Columbus (including 70 with no gain
fully employed members), from 248 Negro families in Columbus, from 2,173 white families in 3 middlesized cities (including 78 with no gainfully employed members), and from 1,570 white families in the 5 small
cities.
Each of these four groups of families constituted a sample composed as nearly as possible of the same
number in each income class, within each family type and occupational group. Since the method of col
lection, by design, failed to preserve the proportions Of the several groups that were found in the population
of families eligible to furnish expenditure schedules, it was necessary to use the proportions obtained in
the eligible sample as weights for all averages that represented combinations of occupational groups, of
family types, or of income classes. See appendix A for a description of the method of sampling.
io
While the present study represents an investigation of differences in expenditure patterns of families
at different income levels, it provides inferential though not direct evidence on how any given group of
families would alter the apportionment of their spending if their incomes were raised or lowered. Thus,
it is convenient to express differences in expenditures among families at different economic levels as relative
changes with income. The relative increase over the income range in the outlay for a given category pro
vides an indication of the “ elasticity” of expenditures for that category. Elasticity may be measured in
terms of the percentage increase over a given income range in average outlay for the category (as in ch. IX ),
or it may be indicated by a comparison of the increase in average expenditures for the category in ques
tion with the increase in income or in total expenditures. Since the expenditure base has generally been
used in the distribution of family expenditures, it has been convenient throughout the greater part of the
report to speak of expenditures for specific groups of items as being relatively elastic or inelastic, according
to whether amounts spent constituted an increasing or decreasing proportion of total expenditures. It
will be apparent from tables 1, 2, and 3 that the elasticity of any category is much lower when computed
in relation to income rather than to expenditures, because of the influence of deficits at the lower economic
levels, and of savings in the upper portion of the income scale.

tance over the income range. Outlays for contributions and personal
taxes, on the other hand, received a steadily increasing share o f income.
All the other m ajor consumption categories except medical care in
creased in relative importance over a large portion of the income scale,
but after a certain level was reached, received a declining share of
income.
The demand for food and home maintenance is so urgent that
Columbus white families with incomes o f $500 to $750 spent all but
10 percent of their current incomes for these items alone, and the
white families in the smaller communities that received incomes of
$250 to $500 spent at least 12 percent more than their incomes in
this manner. (See table 1.) The total expenditures of Columbus
white families in the lowest income class studied exceeded their incomes
by 21 percent; those o f white families with incomes of $250 to $500
in the smaller communities, b y more than 40 percent; those of C o
lumbus Negro families at the same income level, by only 15 percent.11
Average net deficits declined rapidly at succeeding income levels until
aggregate surpluses approximately balanced aggregate deficits at the
$1,250 to $1,500 level for white families in Columbus and the middlesized cities, and at the $750 to $1,000 level for Columbus Negro
families. The $1,250 level marked the turning point from net deficits
to net surpluses for the small-city families studied. A t succeeding
income levels, average net surpluses rose rapidly in relation to income.
In general, average net deficits were smaller and surpluses larger, at
given income levels, among Negro than among white families.
The relatively moderate expenditures by Columbus white families
in the two highest income groups are reflected in remarkably large
surpluses. The total expenditures of Columbus families at the income
level $7,500 to $10,000 averaged but $5,800, while Chicago families
with similar incomes spent about $7,000 and New Y ork families
about $8,000. A t the highest income level, Columbus families spent
for consumer goods and services over $2,100 less than Chicago families
although their incomes averaged approximately the same. They
spent almost $7,500 less than the New Y ork families studied at that
level, while they received incomes only $2,200 lower. A t given income
levels throughout the income range, families living in New Y ork
spent more than families in Chicago, and similarly, the latter spent
more than families in Columbus. Hence, while aggregate incomes
exceeded aggregate expenditures for current living only when family
income reached $2,250 in New Y ork and $1,750 in Chicago, this was
the case among Columbus families with incomes of $1,500 or more.
The cost o f living, at least for moderate income families, is lower in
While the term “ expenditure” is used, it must be recognized that part of this deficit was met by with
drawals from past savings, and part of it accrued in the form of unpaid bills and other obligations.

Columbus than in the two metropolitan communities studied.12
Moreover, it appears that opportunities for spending are more limited
for families with a given income in Columbus than in Chicago or
New York, and the higher the income, the more effective are such
limitations on spending in the smaller city.

According to the Works Progress Administration study of the annual cost of a maintenance standard
of living for four-person families of manual workers in 1935, it appears that the total cost of living is 14 per
cent higher in Chicago than in Columbus and 1.5 percent higher in New York than in Chicago. See Works
Progress Administration, Research Monograph X II, Intercity Differences in Costs of Living in March
1935, 59 cities, Washington, 1937, appendix B, table 3.

’ The adjusted family income figures used in this table represent total family income as used in the income
classification (money income plus imputed income from owned home and rent received as gift or pay),
and in addition the value of goods and fuel obtained without money expense;
a The value of current family living plus surplus (or minus deficit) does not equal exactly 100 percent of
adjusted family income because of the net balancing difference; see glossary, appendix B, and Tabular Sum
mary, table 1.
a See table 2, footnotes 1 through 5, for definitions of the categories included in the value of current family
living.
* Net surplus represents the excess of average money income over average current money expenditures;
see ch. II.
6 Deficit.
The level at which a family lives in any given year depends not
only upon its current income, its past savings, and its credit standing,
but also upon goods and services received without money expense.
The m ost important of these nonmoney items for m ost families is the
unpaid services of the housewife, but it is so difficult to secure an
adequate evaluation of these services that this contribution to family
income was omitted from this survey. It was possible, however, to
secure data on the value of housing received by home owners without
money expense in the year of the survey, of housing received as gift
or pay, and of food and fuel received without money expense. The
data given in table 1 include all these nonmoney items in the figure
given for total income, and in the appropriate categories under the
heading “ money value of current family living” 13 as a percentage of
total income. It is of considerable interest, however, to follow aver
age consumption patterns at successive income levels without regard
to the source of the funds used, and without regard to savings. The
distribution given in table 2 shows expenditures for the major cate
gories as a percentage of total expenditures for current family living,
and throws into high relief the changes in emphasis which follow
changes in income status.
13
Throughout the bulletin the term “ expenditures” is used to include both money expenditures and the
estimated money value of certain items obtained without money outlay during the year. The terms
“ total expenditures for current family living” and “ money value of current family living” are thus synony
mous and will be used interchangeably. Since nonmoney items of consumption have been recorded only for
housing, fuel, and food, money expenditures for all other categories represent the only measure of family
spending for those categories.

Food and home maintenance together absorbed more than 70 per
cent of the total expenditures of the white and Negro families with
incomes below $1,000 studied in the East Central region. Only
among Columbus white families with incomes of $10,000 and more
did these two important categories account for less than one-half of
the total money value of current family living. Average expenditures
for food were o f about the same magnitude as those for home main
tenance, at the lower income levels. B oth declined relatively as
income rose, food much more rapidly than home maintenance, how
ever. Hence, the differences between the two categories in amounts
spent grew progressively larger, until, among Columbus white families
with incomes of $10,000 and more, home maintenance expenditures
were over twice as large as food expenditures.
Clothing and personal care, commonly included among the essen
tials of living, generally took the third largest share of expenditures
for current family living. They accounted for more than one-tenth
of total expenditures among Columbus white families with incomes
of $1,500 or more and among small-city families with incomes of $750
or over. Unlike expenditures for food and home maintenance, those
for clothing increased in relative importance as income rose, somewhat
more rapidly among Negro than among white families.
Expenditures for transportation occupied a relatively large place in
family spending for all except the lowest income groups. A uto
mobile expenditures were substantial and increased rapidly at succes
sive income levels. M ore than one-half the white families with in
comes of $1,250 and more owned automobiles in the year of the sur
vey. The rapid spread within a generation in automobile ownership
probably represents a more striking change in family living habits
than has ever before occurred in an equal period of time.
Medical care expenditures constituted, on the average, from 3 to 5
percent of the money value of current family living, among white
and Negro families in the East Central region. The variations con
cealed in the average expenditures for medical care at any given in
come level, however, tended to be greater than those found in expend
itures for m ost other categories, with a few families at almost every
income level reporting no expenditure and some reporting very high
expenses.
The category designated contributions and personal taxes in the
present study differs in character somewhat from the other groups of
expenditure items. Insofar as gifts made to persons outside the
economic family are balanced by gifts received, such expenditures
IN T R O D U C T IO N
11
constitute a part of family consumption. Sums spent for items such
as money contributions toward the support of individuals or institu
tions, and personal taxes (income, poll, and personal property),
represent aspects of family spending that are less directly converted
to goods and services consumed than are expenditures for the other
categories. Nevertheless, for taxes and contributions to religious
organizations, at least, the families making such expenditures receive
returns in a variety of forms that constitute important elements in
their pattern of living. Outlays o f this type were the most elastic
among the categories of expenditure. The increase was very gradual,
however, over the m ajor portion of the income range.
Expenditures for recreation, tobacco, reading, education, and
miscellaneous items, which have been grouped in the accompanying
tables under the heading “ other items,” accounted in combination for
a slowly rising share o f total expenditures for current family living.
This reflected mainly the increasing relative importance of outlays for
amusement and recreational equipment. Expenditures for education
were generally very small and showed only a slight tendency to take a
larger share of expenditures at the upper than the lower income levels.
Tobacco and reading each maintained about the same relationship
to the total throughout the income range.
In present-day urban communities, the pattern of consumption may
be measured fairly accurately in terms o f money expenditures for
current family living. Hence the distribution of money expenditures,
as shown in table 3, is similar to the distribution of money value of
living, presented in table 2. Since the value of housing obtained
without money expense was at most income levels the only significant
nonmoney item reported, home maintenance was the only category
that represented in general a larger proportion of the money value of
current family living than of money expenditures. The differences
were great enough, however, to produce a different relationship
between food and home maintenance when money expenditures only
are compared. M oney expenditures for food were clearly larger than
money expenditures for home maintenance, at least to the $2,000
level, among white families studied in the East Central region. The
total money value o f family living was generally about 5 or 6 percent
greater than money expenditures among all families studied in the
East Central region, although the percentages ranged from less than
3 among Columbus white families with incomes of $500 to $750 to
over 17 among Columbus Negro families with incomes of $250 to $500.

The ensuing report will attempt to indicate in more detail the
answers to questions toward which the investigation was directed.
For example: As we m ove up the income scale, which categories of
expenditures rise with greatest regularity? W hich are most irregu
lar? H ow do these changes in expenditures vary as between smaller
and larger, or younger and older families or, let us say, between the
wage-earner and professional groups? A t what income level do fam
ilies definitely enter the market, or withdraw from the market, for
particular kinds of goods and services? W hich are relatively urgent
items in the family budget; which assume the behavior of luxuries?
Are there differences in expenditures which are associated with size
of city, or with racial group?
It is hoped that consideration given to questions like these may
have a bearing on such problems as the establishment of wage scales;
the development o f family budgets; estimates of national consump
tion; the relative taxability of successive income strata in the com
munity; the feasibility of current marketing programs and— in the
large— the problem of keeping production in balance with con
sumption.
C h a p te r I I
T h e F a m ily B a lan c e S h e e t
The family balance sheet may be presented by comparing current
money income with money expenditures for current living. Such a
balance sheet, calculated for groups at successive economic levels,
measures the changing relationship between income and consump
tion. It reflects the prevalence of spending financed through deficit,
among the low income groups, and of mounting surpluses among the
higher income families.
A m o n g all the groups o f urban fam ilies in the E a s t C en tral region
which supplied d ata on expenditures, average annual m o n ey expendi
tures exceeded average current m o n ey incom es a t the low est incom e

C u rren t in com e a n d f a m i l y resou rces .— While over an extended
period of time, families are limited b y income in the level of living
which they maintain, this does not mean that in any given year a
family must match expenditures for current living with current
income. Factors preventing such a balance for a particular year
may be peculiar to the individual family or the result of the general
business situation. Some older families will be living on the capital
as well as the income of past accumulations. A young head of
family, particularly in the business and professional groups, may
anticipate future increases in income for the purchase of furniture,
an automobile, or some other relatively durable consumption good.
The family of a business executive or professional man may maintain
about the same level of expenditures, regardless of variations from

i The difference between average money income and average money expenditures equals the average
net surplus or deficit, shown in table 5, except for the balancing difference (never as much as 5.5 percent of
total receipts or disbursements, whichever was larger, for any scheduled family); the het balancing differ
ence is given in the Tabular Summary, table 1.
year to year in annual income, so that some years it shows a surplus
balance and in other years incurs a deficit. A family m ay meet an
emergency that causes its liabilities incurred during a given year to
outrun b y substantial sums its current income. Ordinarily a family
in the lower half of the income scale will not be able to make a cash
purchase of a durable good such as a new stove or a suite of furniture
out o f current income. Hence, in any given year, it is to be expected
that a fraction o f the families will increase their liabilities for the
purpose of improving their level of living while others keep well
within their incomes and perhaps pay off previously incurred obli
gations.
The particular year covered by the Study of Consumer Purchases,
1935-36, was one in which many families had not yet recovered from
reductions resulting from the depression, although, on the other
16

hand, business conditions were improving, and wage rates, as well as
employment, were on the increase. It is understandable that after
restricted buying for a number of years many families began to incur
obligations beyond current incomes, predicated upon the hope of
steady employment and future increases in income. Thus, a net
deficit for a family or a group of families recorded in the period of
the survey may not reflect a chronic tendency to live beyond income,
but rather an optimistic outlook in 1935-36 regarding future income.
This impression is confirmed by the data on net installment obli
gations, which show that the installment commitments carried over
at the end of the schedule year were in general substantially greater,
both in number of families and in average amounts, than the com
mitments with which the year began.1
Had the Study o f Consumer Purchases been conducted at another
stage in the business cycle, the surplus and deficit picture would
perhaps have been different in some important respects. A t some
later date family balance sheets may be studied for a number of
successive years to determine the regularity with which families
balance net increases in assets against net increases in liabilities.
Meanwhile, an examination of the surpluses and deficits of families
for the year 1935-36 shows, in the East Central as in the other regions
studied, occasional families with strikingly unbalanced budgets for
the year. These cases are apt to distort the averages for the group.
Such instances of random fluctuation in the sample do not, however,
obscure the dominant patterns shown by the data.
Surplus and deficit among fam ilies at different income levels.2—
Although average money expenditures exceeded average money
incomes among a substantial proportion of the families studied in
the East Central region, there were some families at every income
level that showed a net surplus for the year. On the other hand,
there were some in every income group except the highest studied for
Columbus white families that ended the year with a deficit. Finally,
1See details of surplus and deficit items, ch. VIII.
2The average surpluses and deficits shown in table 5 are compiled from detailed reports of changes in assets
and changes in liabilities. These detailed reports were treated as part of the record of money outlays and
money receipts to determine whether the total reported money disbursements balanced with the total
reported money receipts. As used in the present study, the term disbursements includes money expendi
tures for current living and amounts spent to increase assets or decrease liabilities, while the term receipts
includes money income and funds used for family living which were obtained through decreasing assets or
increasing liabilities. A schedule was accepted if money receipts and money disbursements agreed within
5.5 percent. It follows from this method that the difference between average money income and average
current expenditures shown in table 4 will not agree precisely with the average surplus or deficit for all
families shown in the last column of table 5. (See discussion of balancing differences in glossary.)
Among white families, except in the upper portion of the income scale, the net balancing differences were
negative, by amounts that seldom exceeded $15. Among Negro families, they were as often positive as
negative, and generally small in amount. No attempt was made to force a balance. It would have been
impossible to account for minor discrepancies on individual schedules without unduly prolonging the field
interviews. They may have resulted from errors in estimating income, expenditures, savings, or deficits.
In any event, the average differences were too small to be significant.

there were a few families at almost every income level which broke
even for the year for which they furnished the account, and reported
neither a surplus nor a deficit.
Among the Columbus white families, less than half of those with
incomes under $1,000 accumulated any surplus for the year, while
at least 90 percent of those with incomes of $3,000 and over kept
expenditures below income. Furthermore, the average amount of
surplus, for those families reporting surpluses, was less than $60 at
the income levels below $1,000, but increased steadily at successive
levels, amounting to $500 or more per family among those with
incomes of $3,000 and over. The average amount of deficit per
family reporting deficits showed only a slight relationship to income,
however, amounting to over $200 among families at the lowest income
level, and reaching a maximum of $591 among families with incomes
between $3,000 and $3,500. It is to be expected that the amount of
surplus which a family is able to acquire during a given year should be
directly related to the amount of family income, whereas a deficit
may result from an accident or emergency so that its size has little
to do with the amount of family income during the year.
As would be expected, the more substantial and more numerous
deficits at the lower income levels outweighed the surpluses, with the
result that there was an average net deficit among all Columbus white
families with incomes below $1,500. (See table 5.) A t higher income
levels there was an average net surplus, amounting to over 10 percent
of money income above the $2,500 income level and to nearly 20 per
cent at the $3,500 to $4,000 level. All families with incomes above
$7,500, reported a surplus for the year of the survey, and the average
net surpluses, as noted in chapter I, were very high, both in absolute
amounts and in relation to income.
In the middle-sized and small cities, substantially the same pattern
of surplus and deficit appeared. The level at which half or more of
the families reported surpluses for the year was the same in the
middle-sized cities as in Columbus ($1,000 to $1,250), while in the
small cities this occurred at the $750 level. In each of these units,
average surpluses for the families which reported them amounted
to less than $100 among families with incomes under $1,000, but in
creased rather rapidly with income. Deficits, when averaged for the
families which incurred them, were more substantial than the sur
pluses of the other families, up to the $2,000 income level in the middlesized cities, and the $1,750 level in the small cities. The net result
was a rather substantial net deficit among families with incomes under
$750 in both urban units, followed by an approximate balance be
tween receipts and disbursements up to the $2,250 income level, and
then by increasingly large average net surpluses.

Columbus Negro families consistently spent less for consumption
goods and services in relation to their incomes than the white families
studied in the East Central region. A t the $500 to $750 income level,
for example, Columbus white families reported a net deficit that aver
aged 20 percent of money income, while Negro families had a deficit
amounting to only 6 percent of money income. Similarly, at the
highest comparable income level ($2,500 to $3,000), Negro families
had an average surplus about twice as great as that of white families.
M ore than one-half the Negro families at every income level begin
ning at $750 reported surpluses for the year. Their surpluses averaged
$100 or more at all income levels above $1,000. Average deficits
were in most cases small, even among the families which incurred
them; at only two income levels did they amount to more than $130.
As a result the average net deficit, even at the $250 to $500 level, was
less than $70, and there was an average net surplus for all Negro
families with incomes of $1,000 and over, amounting to more than
10 percent of money income for those at all but one income level above
$1,250.
When the different city units are compared as to average net surplus
or deficit, it is apparent that, at each comparable income level up to
$3,000, Columbus white families had the largest deficits or the smallest
surpluses. Between the middle-sized and small cities there were no
consistent differences. Columbus Negro families with but one excep
tion ranked highest— that is, had the smallest deficits or the largest
surpluses. In fact, the Columbus Negro families with incomes of
$500 to $1,250 achieved an approximate balance between money
income and money expenditures as did white families in that city
with incomes between $750 and $2,000. Negro families with incomes
between $1,250 and $1,500 accumulated an average net surplus that
amounted to 13 percent of their money income, as did white families
whose incomes fell between $2,500 and $3,000.
S u rp lu s a n d deficit a m on g occu pation al g r o u p s .3— In general, among
white families, those in the wage-earner group tended to show aver
age net surpluses at lower income levels than other occupational
groups. (See table 6.) Their surpluses also tended to be larger
than those accumulated by other families, at the income levels up
to $2,000. A t higher incomes, however, particularly in Columbus
and the small cities, they ranked below most other occupational
3 The occupational classifications presented are not equally detailed in all city units. Data for wage
earner and clerical families are shown separately for all groups studied in the East Central region. Among
white families in Columbus, business and professional families are classified into three groups, salaried pro
fessional, salaried business, and independent business and professional; in the middle-sized cities, into two
groups, salaried business and professional and independent business and professional; in the small cities, all
business and professional families are presented in combination. Among Negro families in Columbus,
business and professional families are likewise combined. However, since data for these Negro families can
be compared for the three occupational groups studied at only three income levels, they are not included in
the discussion or text tables by occupational group in this or the following chapters, but are presented
for reference only in the Tabular Summary.

groups. This suggests that wage-earner families tend to strike a
balance between income and expenditures at relatively low income
levels, while at higher incomes, in part because of the greater fre
quency of multiple earners, which means more adults to be supported
by the family income, it is difficult for them to pile up large sur
pluses.4 Differences among the other occupational groups in the
balance-sheet record for the year were negligible except in Columbus,
where salaried business families generally had smaller surpluses and
larger deficits than other families.5

The data on income, presented in vol. I of this bulletin, clearly showed that most of the wage-earner
families in the upper income brackets had two or more earners.
8
When occupational groups at given income levels in each family type are compared, no significant differ
ences are found, although in both Columbus and the middle-sized cities, wage earners rank high. When
averages are computed for each occupational group, giving the constituent family types an equal weight,
the differences are more clearly marked. In the case of the small cities, however, no occupational differ
ences are found when the influence of family size variations is eliminated. See supplement to Tabular
Summary, table A, and appendix D.

S u rp lu s an d deficit a m on g f a m i l y -t y p e g r o u p s .6— The larger the num
ber of members in a family to be supported by a given income, the
more difficult it is, obviously, to keep obligations incurred within the
limits of that income. The contrast in the balance-sheet record for
the year was most marked between two-person families, at one ex
treme, and families containing seven or eight members (type V II),
at the other. (See table 7.) In general, the former had the smallest
deficits and the largest surpluses, at given income levels, while the
reverse was true of the latter. Differences among families ranging in
size from three to six members were b y no means clearly defined,
although there was a tendency in Columbus and the small cities for
families containing five or six members, at least three of them 16 or
over (type V ), to rank low.7
It is interesting to note that family type for family type, Negro
families had smaller deficits and larger surpluses than white families
with corresponding incomes.8 It is evident, therefore, that the larger
surpluses accumulated by all families in the Negro group at a given
income level did n ot reflect merely the exclusion from the Negro
sample of the large families represented among the whites. Perhaps,
due to their greater instability o f employment when they are receiving
wages or salaries, they feel more urgently the need for saving than do
white families, and find it less easy to secure credit.
In connection with any discussion of family expenditures in relation
to income, two questions naturally arise. In the case of families
whose expenditures exceeded their current income, it may be asked
what form the deficits took. Were they met by drawing on cash-onhand, savings accounts, or insurance equities; or do they represent
credit in the form of charge accounts, installment obligations, other
unpaid bills, or borrowed funds? In the case of families which showed
surpluses for the year, to what extent did these surpluses consist of
insurance as compared with savings accounts, purchases of property,
or investments in securities? This analysis of family surplus and
deficit may take its place in the detailed consideration of family
disbursements. It will be presented in chapter V III, following the
discussion of disbursements made for family consumption, designated
in this study as expenditures.
• In view of the fact that data for Columbus Negro families can be compared for the three-family type
groups studied (type I, types II and III combined, and types IV and V combined) at only five income levels,
and of the relatively small number of cases as a basis for the averages, they are generally not included in
the discussion or text tables by family type in this and the following chapters. The available figures are
to be found in the Tabular Summary.
7
When occupational group and income are held constant and families of the first six types compared,
the differences in the balance-sheet record are not striking. See supplement to Tabular Summary, table A,
and appendix D.

Chapter III
Food
Among families at all income levels, food constitutes the major
category of family expense. Average expenditures for food increased
steadily at successive income levels among all the urban families
studied in the East Central region. W hite families in Columbus, for
instance, with incomes of $500 to $750 spent on the average $276 for
food, while those with incomes of $2,500 to $3,000 spent $653 and the
few with incomes o f $7,500 and more spent over twice as much.
(See table 8.) There was a similar increase in food expenditures among
families in the other city units.1
Although average expenditures for food thus continued to increase
all the way up the income scale, they did not keep pace with the
increase in total expenditures for current family living, so that food
declined in relative importance at successive income levels in all nine
communities studied in the East Central region. (See fig. 2.) It
comprised approximately 40 percent of total money expenditures

1 See glossary, appendix B, for the definition of expenditures used in this study.
i The category of food included not only expenditures for the family’s regular meals and for miscellaneous
items like candy, soft drinks, and liquor, but also a considerable part of the family’s entertainment bill.
It was not practicable to keep apart the recreational and the food-consuming aspects of what was spent in
eating out—to separate the restaurant checks for night-club and after-theater parties, for example, from those
for family meals away from home. The range of choice of the various families in respect to the use of meals
as an auxiliary to entertainments, communal activities, and “ going out” thus tends to complicate the
problem of comparing the food expenditures of families at different income levels.

For all but the small group of white families at the top of the income

Money expense for food per meal per person was computed on the basis of total money expenditures for
food (except for food eaten while traveling) in relation to the number of equivalent adults who were members

sumption was less than that of an adult were reckoned as fractions of an equivalent adult. For method of

than 10 cents per meal among Columbus white families with incomes
of $500 to $750 but amounted to almost 20 cents among families at the
$2,500 level, and 43 cents at the $7,500 to $10,000 level, followed by a
decline to 30 cents at the highest level. Similar increases were charac
teristic of family spending in other units.
One factor explaining the increase in food expenditures over the
income range is the rapidly expanding sums spent for food away from
home, which is generally more expensive than food purchased for
preparation at home. Included in this category were meals at work,
at school, and on vacation, in addition to candy, ice cream, and drinks
consumed away from home. Expenditures for food away from home
never averaged as much as $50 for the year among families with
incomes below $1,500, or as much as $100 among families with incomes
under $2,250. Among families at the top of the income scale in all
three units, however, expenditures of this type comprised a very
important part of total food expense.
The average amounts of food received without money expense
(meals and other food received as gift or pay and the products of
home gardens) b y the families studied in the East Central region
were so small that average m oney expenditures for food approximated
very closely the level of food consumption for all white families except
those in the small cities at the $500 to $750 level, where free food aver
aged $33 or almost one-eighth as much as food expenditures, and for
Columbus Negro families at the $250 to $500 level, where free food
averaged $48 or almost one-fourth of food expenditures. W ith these
two exceptions, the amounts of food received without money expense
generally averaged less than 5 percent of money expenditures for food.
The relative importance of free food declined somewhat over the
income scale, but the differences were not great enough to be a
significant factor in explaining the increase with income in money
expenditures for food.
I n te r c ity d ifferences in f o o d exp en d itu res .— Family expenditures for
food were higher among the whites in Columbus than in the middlesized cities at all comparable income levels above $1,000. A t incomes
between $1,000 and $3,000, average expenditures were greater in the
small than in the middle-sized cities, and often equalled or exceeded
those in Columbus. Columbus white families always incurred the
heaviest expense per meal per equivalent adult, however, and in gen
eral, families in the middle-sized cities spent more than those in the
small cities. This suggests that the relatively high, f a m i l y food expend
itures in the small cities was in part, at least, the result of the some
what larger average size of families, particularly as compared with
Columbus.3 The relatively large food expenditures per meal per
person in Columbus reflect also the larger outlays for food away from

home. It may be true, moreover, that there were certain differences
in food prices among the cities of different size.
R a c ia l differences i n j o o d exp en d itu res. — Negro families spent less
for food, on the average, than did white families in any of the com
munities studied. Their total food expenditures ranged from 6 to 41
percent below those of Columbus white families with corresponding
incomes. Since the value of food received without money expense
was little more important among Negro than among white families
at given income levels, the differences in the total money value of
food consumed were of about the same magnitude. A t the lowest
comparable income level ($500 to $750) the total food expenditures
of white families exceeded those of Negroes by $33, while at the
$2,500 to $3,000 level, the difference between the value of food con
sumed by the white families and by the Negro families was over six
times as large. In view of the fact that the larger families were not
scheduled for Negroes this difference might have been interpreted as
being due to the larger average size of the families scheduled among
the whites.
The expense per meal per person was, however, lower among Negro
than white families, which indicates a clear difference in food expendi
tures. This may reflect variations in dietary habits or standards.
The low expense for food reported b y Negro families arose in part,
also, from their relatively small expenditures for food away from home,
which at only one income level amounted to more than $50, and did
not show such a clear tendency to increase at successive income levels
as did similar expenditures among the white families.
M o n e y exp en d itu res f o r f o o d a m on g occu pa tion a l g ro u p s. — A com
parison among families in different occupational categories indicates
that the families covered in the wage-earner group had larger average
money expenditures for food than did other groups. (See table 9.)
This was particularly marked in the middle-sized and small cities,
where at every income level at which all occupational groups were
represented, wage-earner families ranked high. There were no con
sistent differences among the other groups except in Columbus, where
the salaried professional families generally reported the smallest
expenditures.
When expenditures per meal per person, as shown in table 10, are
compared for the several occupational groups, no consistent differences
were found, although in the small cities the wage earners ranked high
more often than any other group. It would seem, then, that the
occupational differences in average food expense per family as between
occupational groups reflected in large part differences in average
family size. In Columbus and the middle-sized cities, at least, wage
earners generally had more members per family than did other groups,4
4 See Tabular Summary, table 2.
FAM ILY EXPENDITURE IN EAST CENTRAL REGION
28
and, at the upper income levels, at least, probably more of these
members were 16 or over. Thus, even though their expenditures per
meal per person were no higher than those of other groups, their food
expenditures per family were high.6 The high expenditures of wageearner families in the small cities, however, seem to have reflected
high food expenditures per meal per person and relatively large out
lays for food away from home, since their average family size, at least
at incomes of $1,750 and above, was no greater than that of other
groups.

1 Expenditure schedules not taken for families at this income level.
2In the small cities all business and professional families were classified together.
The amounts spent for food away from home showed no consistent
relationship to occupational classification.6 In Columbus, however,
5 When the data on total food expenditures per family were examined for different occupational groups
with family type and income held constant, no significant differences were found. This confirms the
theory that such differences as are found among occupational groups with all family types combined are in
fact due chiefly to differences in average size of family. See supplement to tabular summary, table B, and
appendix D.

the salaried business families clearly tended to spend less than other
families in this way, while in the small cities wage-earner families
tended to spend more than those in white-collar occupational groups.

1 Expenditure schedules not taken for families at this income level.
3 In the small cities all business and professional families were classified together.
F a m ily ty p e differences in f o o d exp en d itu res .— The average amount
spent on food by the families studied in the nine communities of the
East Central region was in general directly related to number of
persons in the family. Almost without exception, two-person
families spent the least for food, with the families containing one child
under 16 (type II) coming next, while families with seven or eight
members (type V II) spent the most (table 11). The age as well as
the number of members other than the husband and wife, however,
affected food expenditures. This is reflected in the generally higher

average food expense for families of type V than of type V I . Both
contained five or six members, but the.former had from one to three
persons over 16 years of age in addition to husband and wife, while
the latter contained only children under 16 in addition to the parents.7

The 7 family types are distinguished on the basis of the number and age of members other than hus
band and wife, as follows:
I No other persons (families of 2).
II 1 child under 16 (families of 3).
III 2 children under 16 (families of 4).
IV 1 person 16 or over and 1 or no other person, regardless of age (families of 3 or 4).
V 1 child under 16,1 person 16 or more, and 1 or 2 others, regardless of age (families of 5 or 6).

per meal per person showed a clear inverse relationship to family
size. (See table 12.) Two-person families incurred the heaviest
average expense per meal per person followed by those with three
members (type II), while the largest families (type V II) almost
without exception, had the lowest food expense per meal per equiv
alent adult. In Columbus, for example, where the differences were
striking, it was only when families of seven or eight reached the
$4,000 to $5,000 income level that their average expenditures per meal
per food expenditure unit equalled those of the two-person families
with incomes of $750 to $1,000, or of three-person families with
incomes of $1,250 to $1,500.

1 The 7 family types are distinguished on the basis of the number and age of members other than husband
and wife, as follows:
I No other persons (families of 2).
II 1 child under 16 (families of 3).
III 2 children under 16 (families of 4).
IV 1 person 16 or over and 1 or no other person, regardless of age (families of 3 or 4).

I t is apparent, then, th a t high average total expense for food is
associated w ith low expense per m eal per person.
T h is is m ade
possible p artly b y the lower unit cost o f purchasing and preparing
food for a large fa m ily.
I t is probable, also, th a t large fam ilies
purchased som ew hat cheaper goods than did sm all fam ilies w ith
sim ilar incom es, and th a t at the lower incom e levels the form er
generally had less adequate diets.
Differences in average expense for food aw ay from hom e were n o t
clearly defined, save th a t am ong C olu m b u s w hite fam ilies, those
including on ly husband and wife tended to m ak e relatively large
ou tlays of this sort, while the largest fam ilies were a t the other ex
trem e.8
T h is relationship u ndoubtedly helps to explain the differ
ences in expense per m eal per person betw een these tw o fa m ily types.
F am ilies containing on ly tw o adults probab ly feel free to “ eat o u t”

the u nit m eal costs o f the sm all fam ilies.
Summary .— W h ile average expenditures for food increased through

ou tlays for food aw ay from h om e at the upper incom e levels.
At a

than in the sm aller cities, p artly no d ou b t because of larger ou tlays

except
th a t w age

Differences betw een w hite and N egro fam ilies in food expenditure

Chapter IV
Home Maintenance
N ext to food, shelter is the most important category in the family
budget. Closely related to expenditures for housing itself are those
for household operation and for furnishings and equipment. For
some purposes it is convenient to consider them in combination
under the heading of home maintenance.
H o u s in g } — Since at all income levels there were families that
owned their homes and at most levels a few that obtained rent-free
dwellings as a gift or in exchange for services, the housing category
is represented in family consumption patterns not only by money
outlay but also by the value of the occupancy of owned homes, insofar
as that value exceeds the current money expenditures for taxes, mort
gage interest, insurance, and repairs, and by the occupancy value of
rent-free dwellings. For housing alone, white families in Columbus
spent on the average $262 at the $500 to $750 income level and
$560 at the $2,500 to $3,000 level (table 13). Though the number
of dollars spent for housing increased, expense for housing declined
from 33 to 23 percent of the average total expenditures of these fami
lies. A t higher income levels expenditures for housing continued to
increase in amount and to decline as a proportion of total expendi
tures for current family living. Thus, over a range that represented
a tenfold increase in average income, and about a sixfold increase
in average total current expenditures, housing expenditures increased
less than four times (from $262 to $1,026).
1It should be noted that great caution must be exercised in making any comparison of the housing data
reported in this chapter with those presented in volume I, ch. VI. The discussion in volume I based on
the short schedule used with the large random sample centered mainly about the rents for family home
reported by renting families and the rental values of owned family homes, while this chapter deals primarily
with the money value of housing for all families regardless of tenure, and also includes money expenditures
for lodging for family members away from home. In volume I, money expenditures for fuel, light, and
refrigeration were included only when they were covered by the rents reported and it was therefore im
possible to give the rent figures without them; in this chapter, such expenditures are in all cases included.
The imputed value of home ownership as reported on the family schedule and presented in volume I was
an estimated figure; the data in this chapter on money value of housing include the actual housing expendi
tures reported by home-owning families. Finally, in volume I, the averages at any given income level,
for all families and families of specified occupational groups included the larger families (types VIII and
other in the white samples and V I and VII, as well, in the Negro sample) which did not furnish expendi
ture schedules. The averages for all families and families of specified type groups include families with
no gainfully employed members, which were treated separately in the analysis of expenditures for Colum
bus (white sample) and the middle-sized cities, and were excluded from the expenditure sample for the
small cities and the Negro families in Columbus.

In general, the expenditures for housing in the middle-sized and
small cities conform to the pattern described for Columbus, a steady
increase in the amount of expenditures and a gradual decline in the
proportion of the total. Expenditures in Columbus and the middlesized cities were very similar. However, average expenditures for
housing by families in the small cities covered by the Bureau of
Labor Statistics always rank below those of families in the similar
incomes in Columbus. Thus, in the income range from $750 to
$1,750 families in small cities spent on the average about $40 to
$60 less per year on housing than families with similar incomes in
Columbus. The families with incomes oi $1,250 to $1,500, for example,
in small cities used 24 percent of their total expenditures for housing,
while in Columbus they spent 28 percent in this way. There was a
tendency for the variations in the proportion of the total taken by
housing to be slightly greater in the lower than in the upper portion
of the income scale. The saving in housing expense, however, was
substantially larger than the saving in total expenditures.
Figures on the housing facilities of the families covered in this
report have not yet been analyzed to determine whether the differences
between the housing expenditures of families in the large and middlesized cities and o f those in the small cities are due primarily to differ
ences in the type of housing generally secured in the two groups of
cities, or whether the difference is primarily due to lower land values,
or to lower construction costs in the smaller communities.
As between the white and Negro families in Columbus, the latter
had slightly lower housing expenditures at almost every comparable
income level. However, their average housing expenditures in most
cases constituted at least as large a proportion of total expenditures
as did those of the Columbus white families.
Among the Columbus white families, only 10 percent of those with
incomes between $500 and $750 reported owning an equity in their
homes, while almost 70 percent of those whose incomes were $5,000
or over fell in this category. (See table 14.) Similar increases
occurred at successive income levels in the middle-sized and small
cities, the proportion of home owners at each comparable income level
being larger in the middle-sized cities than in Columbus, and still
larger in the small cities. In Columbus, home ownership was about
equally prevalent among white and Negro families up to the $1,250
income level, but above that level the Negro families owned their
homes more frequently than white families with corresponding
incomes. A t the income level $2,500 to $3,000, for example, where
slightly over half of white families were home owners, almost 90 per
cent of the Negro families reported owning an equity in their homes.

1 Expenditure schedules not taken for families at this income level.
2 Data were combined for families with incomes of $5,000 and more in the middle-sized cities.
3 Data were combined for families with incomes of $3,000 and more in the small cities.
In most cases, home-owning families received an imputed income
from housing of over $100, and at the upper levels in Columbus and
the middle-sized cities, such income averaged $300 or $400.2 Among
Columbus Negro families and white families in the small cities, the
average amount was usually between $100 and $200. Rent was
received without money expenditure, as gift or pay, by relatively few
families at any income level; it was generally a substantial item for
these families, however. W hen the value of all housing obtained with
out m oney expenditures is averaged for all families, the amounts
appear to have increased steadily with income, from $13 among Colum
bus white families at the $500 to $750 level, for example, to $515
among those with incomes of $7,500 or more. As a proportion o f the
money value of living, the values of housing received without money
expense generally ranged from 4 to 7 percent, and, except in the small
cities, tended to be greater in the upper than in the lower portion of
the income scale.
H o m e ownership generally requires less n et m on ey expenditure
during a given year b y the fam ilies concerned th an w ould h ave been
required if such fam ilies h ad chosen to rent equivalen t housing accom o
dations.
T h e average rental value o f ow ned h om es (m oney expendi
tures com bined w ith the im p u ted incom e from h om e ownership) w as
nevertheless consistently greater than the average ren t reported b y
renting fam ilies a t given incom e levels in the E a s t C en tral cities.3
H en ce, since h om e ownership is inversely related to city size, if only
m o n ey expenditures for housing were considered the intercity differ2 The average amount of imputed income received by home-owning families at a given income level may be
obtained by dividing the average value of imputed income for all families by the percentage of families
reporting home ownership. See Tabular Summary, tables 4 and 4 -A.

cities studied.

ences in housing expenditures would be even greater than indicated
above.
H ou seh old o p era tion .*— 'This category included household help for
which the proportion of families reporting expenditure increased
markedly with income, and supplies and other services, which were in
the expense account of all families. In the case of the Columbus
white families, average expenditures for household operation were
less than for furnishings and equipment at the lower income levels.
They increased more rapidly, however, and at incomes of $2,250 and
above, exceeded the other category. They averaged about $20 for
families with incomes under $1,000, but exceeded $100 for families
with incomes of $2,500 and over, and at higher incomes mounted very
rapidly. In contrast with housing proper, therefore, this type of
expense accounted for an increasing proportion of total expenditures,
rising from less than 3 percent for families with incomes below $1,000
to about 8 percent for those above the $5,000 level. (See table 13.)
In the lower portion of the income scale, the percentage increase in
household operation expenditures was about the same as that in
expenditures for furnishings and equipment. In the upper income
ranges, however, the increase in expenditures for household operation
was almost four times as great as that in furnishings expenditures,
which, in turn, increased less rapidly than among low income families.
In the middle-sized cities expenditures for household operation
increased somewhat more slowly as a proportion of total expenditures
(from 3 to 4 percent), up to the $2,500 income level, but, as in Colum
bus, rose to about 8 percent of the total for families with incomes of
$5,000 and over. In the small cities they showed no clear tendency
to increase over the income range, averaging 3 to 5 percent of the total,
at all income levels above $750.
A substantial part of the increase in operation expenditures reflected
the rising expenditures for household help, which, in turn, are attribut
able both to the greater number of families that employed paid help
and the steadily increasing outlays per family employing. (See table
15.) Only 1 in 20 of the white families in Columbus with incomes
below $1,250, for example, employed household help, while at least 1
in every 3 of those with incomes of $2,500 and more and about 9 in
every 10 of those with incomes of $5,000 or more reported help. The
average expenditure per family reporting help also rose rapidly from
$20 for Columbus white families with incomes under $1,000, for ex
ample, to $329 for the families that received incomes of $5,000 or more.
Household help is not a significant factor in the average family ex
penditure in any of the 3 groups of cities at income levels below
$1,750. While expenditures for household supplies and other services
averaged over $50 among families with incomes of $1,500 to $1,750,

payments for household help averaged less than $10. But average
expenditures for paid help increased much more rapidly than expendi
tures for other services and supplies, so that at the higher income levels
they accounted for about three quarters of the total outlays for house
hold operation.
A t most income levels, average money expenditures for household
operation in the middle-sized cities equaled or exceeded those in
Columbus; in the small cities they tended to be slightly larger than in
the middle-sized cities. Columbus families usually had the lowest
average expenditures for supplies and services other than household
help at least up to the $2,250 level, largely because of the relatively
low water-rent rates in that city.5
In general, the average expense incurred by Negro families in
Columbus for household operation was less than that of white families
at comparable income levels. Their outlays for household supplies
and services were usually only slightly lower than those of white
families, but they had virtually no expenditures for household help
at income levels below $1,750.
F u r n is h in g s a n d e q u ip m e n t .— The last category of expense included
under home maintenance is that for furnishings and equipment.
These expenditures increased about tenfold over the income range in
Columbus and the middle-sized cities, and somewhat more rapidly
in the small cities and among the Negro families. They absorbed an
increasing share of total expenditures up to the $3,000 level in C o
lumbus, and the $2,250 level in the middle-sized cities. Thereafter
their relative importance tended to decline. In the small cities and
among the Columbus Negro families, however, this type of expendi
ture showed a somewhat more persistent tendency toward increase at
the higher income levels. Outlays for furnishings and equipment
averaged over $100 for Columbus white families with incomes of
$2,500 and above, for families in the middle-sized cities with incomes
of $3,000 and over, for those in the small cities with incomes of $2,000
and more, and among the Negro families studied at the $1,750 level
and above.
H o m e m a in ten a n ce .— Having analyzed the various types of expendi
ture connected with operating a home, we may now summarize our
findings by considering all expenditures for home maintenance in
combination. Average expenditures for this purpose increased from
$300 among Columbus white families at the $500 to $750 income level,
to almost $2,350 among those with incomes of $7,500 or more (table
13). Since housing expenditures comprised the m ajor portion of this
total, particularly at the lower income levels, it is not surprising that
the average amounts reported by small-city families were generally

exceeded by those for white families in the larger communities covered
by this report.
Expenditures for home maintenance accounted for well over onethird of total expenditures for all white families at the lower income
levels. They dropped below 30 percent of the total, on the average,
only in the small cities among families with incomes of $3,000 and
above. In the middle-sized cities, however, although there was a
clear decline in the relative importance of these expenditures from the
$250 to the $2,500 income level, they never comprised less than 33
percent of the total. A comparison between white and Negro families
in Columbus shows that average expenditures for home maintenance
were somewhat higher at comparable income levels for the former.
H o u s in g a m on g occu pation al g r o u p s .— The one clear-cut difference
in average expenditures for housing among white families of different
occupational group was the low rank of wage earners. (See table 16.)
W ith but very few exceptions, they made lower average outlays than
the families of any other group in all three urban units in the East
Central region, their expenditures ranging from about 1 to 32 percent
below those of the next highest group.
The self-employed group tended to rank high in average total money
value of housing, in both Columbus and the middle-sized cities. In
the small cities, where the self-employed group formed a part of the
combined business and professional group, the latter ranked uniformly
high.6 Among white families in Columbus and the middle-sized cities,
home ownership was most common among self-employed families and
least common in the salaried business and professional groups, with
wage-earner and clerical families between. Since rental values re
ported for owned homes averaged above rents paid by tenants of
comparable income and occupation, groups in which the percentage
of owners was high usually ranked high also in value of housing.
Wage-earner families, however, ranked lowest in housing value
although home ownership among them was more frequent than
among the salaried group.
Very few families received rent as gift or pay, and the value of rentfree dwellings was very small, averaged for all families. It was some
what larger for families in the wage-earner and salaried groups than
for other families, however.7 In general, however, the nonmoney
6 When data are compared for families in each occupational group within each family type, or when
averages are computed for the occupational groups, giving each constituent family type an equal weight
rather than a weight representing its frequency, a clear occupational difference is found among white families
in the three urban units studied in the East Central region with wage earners having the lowest total hous
ing values and the self-employed the highest (in the small cities, all business and professional families to
gether were high). (See appendix D ).
It is possible that business and professional groups spend more for housing partly because of the use of
their homes for entertaining clients and colleagues, a use that is in part an occupational expense, but is
not easily separable from the family expenditures with which it is associated.
7 Janitors and boarding house managers, in the wage-earner group, and ministers, resident physicians, in
some cases teachers, in the salaried professional group may receive the use of living quarters (with house•keeping facilities) as partial payment for services.

values of housing comprised primarily imputed income from owned
family homes. Hence, such values averaged highest, at least among
white families in Columbus and the middle-sized cities, among selfemployed families and lowest among those in the salaried groups.8

1 Includes money expenditures for rent; taxes and current upkeep of owned homes; fuel, light and refrig
eration; household operation; furnishings and equipment; and the value of housing and fuel obtained without
money expense.
Expenditure schedules not taken for families at this income level.
3 In the middle-sized cities, families of salaried business and professional workers were classified together.
4 In the small cities, families in all business and professional occupations were classified together.

10 Examination of the expenditures of families in the several occupational groups, with each family type
given an equal weight, indicates that these differences represent a significant occupational bias. See supple
ment to Tabular Summary, table B.
11 When the influence of the varying family type distribution within each occupational group is elimi
nated, wage-earner families, in Columbus and the middle-sized cities, appear to spend the most for furnish
ings and equipment, and families in the self-employed group the least, but the differentiation is not sharp.
In the small cities, moreover, no pattern appears. See supplement to Tabular Summary, table B, and
appendix D.

In all three urban units, average expenditures o f w age earners for
furnishings and equipm ent tended to be larger than those for house
hold operation.
O n the other h and, in C olu m b u s and the m iddle-
sized cities, ou tlays for household operation tended to exceed those for
furnishings and equipm ent am ong fam ilies in the clerical and selfem ployed groups, and the sam e w as true of fam ilies in the business
and professional category in the sm all cities.
Occupational differences in respect to home maintenance.— A s m igh t
be expected from the foregoing discussion, if expenditures for hom e
m aintenance are considered in com bination , w age earners ranked
rather uniform ly low in all the com m unities studied in the E a st
C entral region.
(See table 1 7 .)
T h e position o f the other groups
w as less clear, save th at the independent group tended to h ave high
average expenditures in C olu m b u s.
In general, the clerical group
ranked n ext to the wage earners.
Housing among jamilies oj different composition.— T h e size and
com position o f a fa m ily seem s to h ave less influence on its expendi
tures for housing than does occupational classification.

(See table
A m o n g w hite fam ilies in the three E a s t C en tral urban units

this report those containing seven or eight m em bers
(type V I I ) clearly ranked low .
Fam ilies containing three or four
children under 16 (type V I ) generally com e n ext, follow ed b y fam ilies
w ith one or tw o children (types I I and I I I ) , although in the m id d lesized cities, differences am ong these three types were negligible.
In
C olu m b u s and the m iddle-sized cities, fam ilies of three or four, a t

housing expenditures.12
E x ce p t a t the highest levels in C o lu m b u s,
how ever, the differences betw een the low est and highest housing
expenditures b y fam ilies o f different types at a given incom e level
were seldom as m u ch as $ 1 0 0 for the year.
T h e relatively high expenditures of fam ilies of typ e I V are attrib u t
able in part to the fa ct th a t h om e ownership w as m o st frequent am ong
these fam ilies.
T h e largest fam ilies (type V I I ) owned their hom es
m ore frequen tly than fam ilies containing only children under 16,
in addition to the husband and wife (types I I , I I I , and V I ) .
It
appears, how ever, th a t the renters in this group paid relatively low
rents and th a t the h om e owners h ad hom es of relatively low value
and reported sm all am ou n ts o f im p u ted incom e.
I t m a y be th a t expenditures for housing do n o t v ary m ore m arkedly
w ith fa m ily com position because differences in typ e of dwelling and
residential section selected b y fam ilies of varyin g size tend to offset
variations in the a m ou n t of space required.

When average housing expenditures of families of different type are compared, with occupational group
and income held constant, family type differences are by no means clearly defined. See appendix D,

T h is m a y h ave been because
th ey were younger, on the average, and less w ell-established than
other fam ilies, and thus h ad to b u y certain item s o f equipm en t w hich
other fam ilies already had.
T h e average am ou n ts reported varied
so w idely, how ever, as to suggest th a t th ey were prim arily affected
b y the particular circum stances and tastes o f individual fam ilies.
In other w ords, w hether a fa m ily m akes su bstan tial ou tla ys in this
field in a given year is largely a m a tter o f chance, and n o t influenced,
to an y m arked extent, b y the fa m ily ’s com p osition .14
W it h respect to expense for household operation, the on ly discernible
tendency w as for the tw o-person fam ilies to m ak e rather high expendi
tures, w ith the largest fam ilies (type V I I ) and those containing at
least one person over 16 in addition to the husband and wife (types
I V and V ) at the other extrem e.15
Home maintenance among fam ilies o f different type .— In view o f the
lack o f significant differences am ong fam ilies o f varyin g com position
in their expenditures for the different categories w hich com prise h om e
m aintenance, it is n o t surprising th a t, w hen th ey are considered in

(See

The

(typ e

clearly
ranked
low est, how ever, reflecting their relatively sm all expenditures b oth
for housing and household operation.
T h e two-person fam ilies, on
the other h and, tended to spend m ore th an other fam ilies w ith co m
parable incom es for h om e m aintenance, since th ey ranked high in
respect to b oth furnishings and household operation and h ad an

Differences

m eans consistent.
Nevertheless, the d ata suggest th a t the level o f
fam ily living in respect to housing and other aspects o f hom e m ain
tenance is less adequate, the larger the fam ily.
u This explanation is confirmed by examination of the data for families of different type, with occupa
tional group held constant. For the most part, family type bias is not evident in the figures, though they
indicate a tendency for the families with children, under 16, particularly those of type II, to make relatively
large outlays in this field, while the families of types IV and V had low expenditures. See supplement to
Tabular Summary, table B, and appendix D.
is When the family types within each occupational group are compared, these differences are clearly marked
in the wage-earner group, but of little significance in the other groups. See supplement to Tabular Sum

In general, fa m ily clothing expense am oun ted to less than $ 1 0 0 a

In general, average clothing expenditures of h usbands and wives
in the w hite fam ilies were a bou t equal a t the lower incom e levels.3
In all three o f these urban units, how ever, the expenditures o f wives
were greater than those of husbands a t the upper incom e levels.
A m o n g the C o lu m b u s N egro fam ilies the expenditures o f w ives were,
in general, considerably larger than those o f husbands a t the low er as
well as the higher incom e levels.
In contrast to the rapid increase in fa m ily clothing expenditures,
those for personal care
(including b eau ty parlor and barber shop
services, toilet articles and preparations) increased a t abo u t the sam e
rate as to ta l m o n ey expenditures, constituting, w ith b u t few excep
tions, a b o u t 2 percent o f the to ta l a t each incom e level.
T h e y aver
aged less th an $20 per year am ong C o lu m b u s w hite fam ilies below the
$ 1 ,0 0 0 incom e level and am ong those w ith incom es below $ 7 5 0 in the
m iddle-sized and sm all cities.
T h e y am oun ted to as m u ch as $ 1 0 0 ,
on the average, o n ly for the C o lu m b u s w hite fam ilies w ith incom es
o f $ 7 ,5 0 0 or m ore.
T h eir relatively con stan t share o f to ta l m o n ey
expenditures, how ever, is indicative o f the extent to which ou tlays
o f this ty p e h av e becom e established as a part o f the A m erican level
o f livin g, even a m on g fam ilies w ith low incom es.
I t is interesting th a t, w hen the average fa m ily clothing expendi
tures are com pared for the w hite groups a t given incom e levels in
the three c ity units, th ey tended to be som ew h at larger in the sm all
than in the m iddle-sized cities, and som ew h at larger there th an in
C o lu m b u s.
N everth eless, although average to ta l clothing expendi
tures tended to v a r y inversely w ith size o f city , this w as true o f the
average expenditures o f husbands and w ives on ly a t the upper incom e
levels.
T h rou gh ou t m o st o f the incom e range, the clothing expendi
tures o f husbands and w ives, respectively, were rem arkably sim ilar
in all three urban units.
T h e excess in total clothing expenditures
thus seem s to h ave been due chiefly to larger am oun ts spent for m e m
bers o f the fa m ily other than the husband and wife, w ho were m ore
num erous in the sm aller cities.
A verage fam ily expenditures for
personal care show ed less variation w ith city size than did fa m ily
clothing expenditures, b u t th ey tended to be highest in the sm all
cities.
T h e average clothing ou tla ys o f C olu m b u s N egro fam ilies were

When average clothing expenditures of husbands and wives as
shown in table 22, are compared, it is clear that those in the wageearner group generally ranked low, with the husbands and wives in
the salaried group at the other extreme. It seems evident, then,
that average clothing expenditures per person were smallest among
wage-earner families, although due to their somewhat larger families,
particularly at the upper income levels, the average expenditures per
family was not very different from those o f other groups.
A t most income levels, the wives in each occupational group
spent more for clothing, on the average, than their husbands. The
differences were small, however, particularly in the wage-earner group,
and not entirely consistent. It is interesting that, in Columbus, the
average expenditures of wives in the clerical group were greater than
those of husbands at all but one income level and that the differences
were generally $10 or more. In the middle-sized cities, on the other
hand, they were as often lower as higher, and the differences never
amounted to more than $8. Part of the explanation of this different
relationship m ay lie in the fact that the wives in the clerical group
were relatively more often earners, and hence had greater clothing
expenditures in Columbus than in the middle-sized cities.5 Perhaps
it is due in part also to the somewhat larger average size of family in
the middle-sized cities, since the necessity of providing for additional
members in the family usually reduces the clothing expenditures of
the wife more drastically than those of the husband.
Expenditures f o r clothing and personal care among fa m ilies o f varying
com position .— As might be expected, the size and composition of a
family had much more influence upon its outlays for clothing and per
sonal care than did occupational classification. Quite clearly, among
white families in all three urban groups, those containing only hus
band and wife had the lowest expenditures for these categories, while
families of seven or eight (type V II) and those containing five or six
members, at least three 16 or over (type V ), spent the most. (See
table 23.)6 Differences among the other family types were not so
clear. The greater cost of clothing an adult than a child is reflected,
however, in the fact that the average expenditures of families con
taining three or four children under 16 (type V I) were generally
exceeded by those of families with similar income containing three or
four members other than husband and wife, at least one of them 16
or over (type V ). Since the style factor is relatively unimportant
with reference to children’s clothing, they can be outfitted at con6
Other studies have shown that women gainfully employed in wage-earner or clerical occupations spend
more for clothing than do women of the same age who are not so employed. See U. S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics Bull. No. 636, Money Disbursements of Wage Earner and Clerical Workers in the East North
Central Area, Washington, 1939.
®When the average clothing and personal care expenditures of white families of different types within
given occupational groups are compared, it is found that the small families tended to make the lowest out
lays, and the larger families of types V and VII, the highest. See supplement to Tabular Summary, table B.

siderably less expense than adults, even though clothes must be pur
chased more frequently for them. Moreover, as mentioned above,
children are much more likely than adults to receive both new and
partly worn clothing as gifts.

While family clothing expenditures were directly related to family
size, expenditures of husbands and wives were inversely related to the
number of members to be supported from family funds. (See table
24.) Thus, the clothing expenditures of both husbands and wives
were largest in families of two or three (types I and II) and smallest
in the families that had the largest total family clothing expenditures
(those containing five or six persons, at least three of them over 16
and those with seven or eight members). In general, too, both
husbands and wives spent less for their clothing in families containing
at least three persons over 16 (type V ), than in families of about the
same size that contained only children in addition to the husband and
wife (type V I).

There were definite family type differences in the relative amounts
spent for clothing by husbands and wives. In the two-and-threeperson families, wives generally spent more than husbands. In the
larger families containing five to eight persons (types V, V I, and V II),
on the other hand, the clothing expenditures of wives were no larger
than those of husbands even in the upper portion of the income scale.
If comparisons are made of the average clothing expenditures of
husbands and of wives, respectively, in given family types, city size
differences are small. This suggests that the differences by size of
city in average family clothing expense, commented on earlier in the
chapter, reflected chiefly differences in the distribution of families
among the type groups.

Chapter V I
Transportation
The elasticity of the transportation item in the budgets of the urban
families studied in the East Central region offers eloquent testimony
to the m obility of the American family. Although it yields to food
and shelter in the amount of average expenditure, there is no mistak
ing the readiness of a family to increase its expenditures for transpor
tation as rapidly as income will permit. Thus, the families at the
bottom of the income scale spent on the average only about one-tenth
as much for transportation as for food, while those at the other end of
the scale spent about two-thirds as much for transportation as for food.
Expenditures for transportation increased more rapidly than total
expenditures for current family living, even more rapidly than average
clothing outlays. Indeed, though they were smaller than clothing
expenditures at the bottom of the income scale, they increased more
rapidly and equalled or exceeded average clothing outlays among
white families in Columbus and the middle-sized cities with incomes of
$1,750 or more, and among families in the small cities with incomes of
$2,500 or over. Among Columbus white families average expendi
tures for transportation increased from 4 percent at the $500 level to
more than 11 percent at the $1,750 level. (See table 25 and fig. 4.)
A t succeeding levels up to $7,500, however, there was little change in
the share of expenditures going to transportation, while above the
$7,500 level there was a decline in the proportion of the total spent
in this manner.
This category of expenditure included three main items: expense for
automobile purchase (gross price less trade-in allowance on old cars),
automobile operation, and other transportation, local and interurban.
Transportation expense properly chargeable to business carried on by
family members was deducted from family expense in this field.1
All other transportation was included, however, from daily trips to
and from office and school to week-end and holiday trips by automo
bile, train, or boat. The rapid increase over the income range in
average transportation expense is doubtless attributable in part to
more frequent and more extended holiday trips.

A u to m o b ile p u rch a se a n d op era tion .— The rapid increase in trans
portation expenditures reflects the rising importance of automobile
travel at successive income levels. Among all urban families studied
in the East Central region, the proportion owning and purchasing
automobiles during the year of the survey increased steadily over the
income range, the latter more rapidly than the former, however.
Concomitantly, the average expenditures for purchase and operation
grew steadily larger.
Less than 1 percent of total money expenditures was devoted to
automobile purchase by Columbus white families with incomes under
$1,000, for example, while about 6 percent was spent in this manner
by those with incomes of $3,000 and more. Cars were purchased by
less than 1 in 10 of those at the lowest levels, but by more than 2 of
every 5 having incomes of $4,000 and more.2 The average price paid
by the families purchasing cars, in addition to trade-in allowances,
mounted rapidly, reflecting a shift from the purchase of used cars to
high-priced new cars.
Except at the upper levels, the aggregate expenditures of all fam
ilies in each income class for automobile operation were generally
somewhat larger than the aggregate outlays for purchase.
Among white families, more than 50 percent were reported as
automobile owners at all income levels beginning at $1,000 in Colum
bus and the small cities, and at $1,250 in the middle-sized cities. A t
comparable income levels below $2,250 automobile ownership was
least prevalent in the middle-sized cities, and m ost common in
Columbus. These differences were not striking, however, and among
white families with incomes o f $1,500 and above in Columbus, $1,750
and above in the smaller cities, three families in every four were
reported as automobile owners.2
Among operating families, the average expense of automobile opera
tion mounted steadily. This expense included chiefly gasoline, oil,
tires, repairs, license and garage fees, and insurance.3 While the pro
portion of car-owning families was larger in Columbus, the average
expense per operating family was generally higher in the middle-sized
cities. This is the more striking in view of the fact that garage and
parking fees are slightly more important in the larger city.3 E vi
dently Columbus families responded to the urge to own a car as soon
as that was financially practicable, but made less use of it than was
common in the smaller cities. The differences in average operation
expenses per operating family between the middle-sized and small
cities were very slight, but there was a tendency for them to be some
what lower in the small cities.

The steady increase at successive income levels in operation expense
per operating family, evident in all three urban units, was probably
due in some small part to the use of larger cars, which are more costly
to operate. The chief factor, however, was undoubtedly increased
use of the family automobile. Since automobile expense chargeable
to business was deducted from family expense, it seems reasonable
that a considerable part of the expense reported here was recreational
in character.
A t almost every income level, the proportion of owning families
was much smaller among the Negroes than among the whites. Aver
age operation expense per operating family showed no such steady
increase over the income range as among the whites; it was higher
among the Negro families than among whites at income levels up to
$1,250, and lower at succeeding levels.
T ra n sp orta tion other than b y f a m i l y a u tom obile .— Expenditures for
transportation other than b y the family automobile, which consisted
chiefly of local bus and trolley fares, for daily trips to and from office
and school,3 were generally exceeded b y automobile operation expendi
tures. Only at the upper income levels did outlays for long-distance
train or boat trips become an important factor to any but the excep
tional family. Hence, “ other” transportation expenditures absorbed
a constant share of total money expenditures over the income scale,
never averaging as much as 2 percent of this total among Columbus
white families, for example, or as much as 1 percent among the
families studied in the small cities. Expenditures for local transpor
tation b y public conveyances are determined chiefly, not by family
income, but b y the situation o f the individual family, the number of
members who have daily trolley and bus fares to pay. As a result
average expenditures o f this type generally varied by less than $5 per
year from one income level to the next. (See table 25.)
The outstanding feature of this category of expense is its direct
relationship to city size. Average expenditures were usually only
about half as great in the middle-sized cities as in Columbus, and were
still lower in the small cities. These differences probably reflect
not only differences in distances to be covered, and perhaps in some
measure differences in fares, but also the problem of traffic congestion
and parking fees, which likewise vary directly with city size. I t is
often more practicable for those in large cities, even when there is a
family car, to use the public transportation facilities.
Among Columbus white families, average outlays for transporta
tion other than by the family automobile ranged only from $22 to
$32, at the income levels between $1,250 and $5,000. In the small
cities, only those families with incomes of $3,000 and over incurred
expenses which averaged more than $10 per year.

N o t only did the average expenditures of Columbus white families
exceed those of families in the smaller cities; but at almost every com
parable income level, Negro families had higher average expenditures
than white families in Columbus. The differences between white and
Negro families in average expense for other transportation were not
large in amount, generally ranging from $5 to $15 per year, but were
significant in relation to the totals for this item.
S u m m ary o f intercity and racial differences in transportation expendi
tures .— There
were no consistent differences in total transportation ex
penditures among white families in cities of different size nor between
white and Negro families in Columbus. The proportion of families
purchasing automobiles did not vary much with size of city, but
Negro families in Columbus, at least those with incomes of $1,750 or
more, appeared less likely to purchase cars than white families with
corresponding incomes in the same city. Although there were no con
sistent differences b y size of city in expenditures for purchase, there
was a marked contrast between the rather steadily increasing im
portance o f this type of expenditure among white families at succes
sive income levels, and its erratic variations among Negro families.
Automobile ownership was most frequent among white families in
Columbus, with families in the small cities ranking next. Operation
expenditures per operating family tended to be lower in Columbus
than in the smaller cities, however. Hence the average outlays for
automobile operation (based on all families) did not vary much from
one city unit to another. Negro families owned cars less frequently
and spent less for operation than did white families. Expenditures for
transportation other than by automobile varied directly with city size
and were generally higher among the Negro than the white families
studied in Columbus.
Transportation expenditures among occupational groups .— Occupa
tional classification appeared to have little influence upon the family’s
expenditures for transportation. Salaried professional families in
Columbus and salaried business and professional families in the middlesized cities, however, tended to make the largest outlays. (See
table 26.)
Few consistent differences appeared among occupational groups in
the proportion reporting automobile ownership, save that the wage
earners ranked fairly low in Columbus and the middle-sized cities.4
Nor were there clearly marked differences in the average operation
expense per operating family. (See table 27.) In Columbus the
salaried professional group ranked rather high in average expense;
in the middle-sized cities the wage-earner and in the small cities the
clerical group tended to run low.

The proportion of families in the several occupational groups that
purchased cars varied so erratically from one income level to the
next that no relationship to occupational classification appeared.

averaged for all families, there were thus no clear differences among
the groups.5

1 Expenditure schedules not taken for families at this income level.
3 In the small cities all business and professional families were classified together.
Transportation expenditures among fam ily type groups.— Family
composition seemed to have slightly more influence than occupational
classification in determining average expenditures for transportation.
(See table 28.) The large families containing seven or eight persons
(type V II) ranked clearly below the families of two to four, and the
differences in average expenditures were generally substantial.
6
These relationships are evident, although not very clearly defined, when family type and income are
held constant. See supplement to Tabular Summary, table B, and appendix D.

i The 7 family types are distinguished on the basis of the number and age of members other than husband
and wife, as follows:
I No other persons (families of 2).
II One child under 16 (families of 3).
III 2 children under 16 (families of four).
IV 1 person 16 or over and 1 or no other person, regardless of age (families of 3 or 4).
V 1 child under 16,1 person 16 or more, and 1 or 2 others, regardless of age (families of 5 or 6).
VI 3 or 4 children under 16 (families of 5 or 6).
VII 1 child under 16, and 4 or 5 others, regardless of age (families of 7 or 8).
fFewer than 3 cases.
In respect to automobile ownership, the families containing five
to eight members (types V, VI, and VII) in general ranked below
the families containing two to four members.7 Families containing
five to eight persons probably felt sufficient strain on their budgets
for other categories of consumption, particularly food and clothing,
so that they were less able to finance the ownership and operation
of an automobile than smaller families with the same income. This
relationship was particularly marked in the middle-sized and small

In C olu m b u s, at least at the incom e levels of $ 1 ,5 0 0 and above,

than am ong those w ith one or tw o children under 16 (types I I and I I I )
or am on g fam ilies w ith one or tw o m em bers other th an h usband and

exam ination o f the incom e level a t w hich 75 percent o f the fam ilies
were reported as ow ning cars indicates th a t this p oin t w as reached
at a lower incom e level am on g the fam ilies containing children under

T h e fa ct
th at the sam e situation was found in C hicago suggests th a t in a
large city fam ilies w ith one or m ore children feel particular need for
a car to facilitate fa m ily outings.8
I t is interesting th at, in general, n ot only was autom obile ownership
m ore prevalent am ong the sm aller fam ilies, b u t the average operation
expense per operating fa m ily w as also higher.
(See table 2 9 .)
T h is
w as particularly m arked in C o lu m b u s, where in m ore than h alf o f the
com parable incom e classes, the tw o-person fam ilies ranked first or
second in average expense, while the largest fam ilies
generally ranked low est.
(typ e V I I )
D ou btless the budgets o f the sm all fam ilies
allowed m ore leew ay for frequent use o f the fa m ily autom obile than
did those of fam ilies w ith five to eight m em bers.
N o significant fa m ily -ty p e differences were found in average ex
penditures for autom obile purchase and operation com bined, th ough
there was som e tendency for these expenditures to v a r y in inverse
relationship
to fa m ily size.
S om ew hat m ore m arked fa m ily -ty p e
differences appeared in expenditures for other transportation, how ever,
with the fam ilies containing on ly children under 16, in addition to the
husband and wife (types I I , I I I , and V I ) , having relatively lo w ex
penditures.9
Summary.— In su m m ary, it m a y be pointed o u t th at transportation,
in the E a s t C en tral as in other regions covered b y the U rb a n Series o f
the S tu d y o f C on sum er Purchases, was a v ery elastic category o f
expenditure, reflecting the rapid increase over the incom e range, in
average expense for autom obile operation and purchase.
E xp en d i
tures o f this ty p e were generally sm aller am ong N egro th an am ong
w hite fam ilies, due chiefly to less frequent ownership o f autom obiles.
Three in four w hite fam ilies were reported as autom obile owners at
incom es o f $ 1 ,5 0 0 and over in C olu m b u s, $ 1 ,7 5 0 and over in the
m iddle-sized and sm all cities.
E xpenditures for transportation other
than b y the fa m ily autom obile form ed a constan t proportion o f total
expense over the incom e range, and were directly related to city size.
8See U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Bull. No. 642: Family Income and Expenditure in Chicago,
Washington, 1939, vol. II, ch. VI.

The 7 family types are distinguished on the basis of the number and age cf members other than husband
and wife, as follows:
I No other persons (families of 2).
II 1 child under 16 (families of 3).
III 2 children under 16 (families of 4).
IV 1 person 16 or over and 1 or no other person, regardless of age (families of 3 or 4).
V 1 child under 16,1 person 16 or more, and 1 or 2 others, regardless of age (families of 5 or 6).
VI 3 or 4 children under 16 (families of 5 or 6).
VII
1 child under 16, and 4 or 5 others, regardless of age (familes of 7 or 8).

T h e preceding analysis of expenditures of the fam ilies studied in
the E a s t C en tra l region has covered fo o d , h om e m aintenance, c lo th ing, personal care, and transportation.
R egardless o f incom e level,
these categories accounted in com bination for the m a jo r share o f the
expenditure dollar.
A m o n g each group o f urban fam ilies studied in
the E a s t C en tra l region, those w ith incom es under $ 1 ,0 0 0 devoted
fro m 8 5 to 9 0 percent o f their to ta l m o n ey expenditures, on the aver
age, to these groups o f goods and services.
E v e n am ong the relatively
few fam ilies in C o lu m b u s and the m iddle-sized cities w ith incom es of
$ 5 ,0 0 0 and over, th ey accounted, on the average, for 70 to 80 percent
o f the to ta l.
A fte r these m a jo r item s in the usual fa m ily budget are taken care
o f, there rem ains a group of goods and services which are of a som e
w h a t different nature in th a t m a n y fam ilies could, in the face o f
necessity, get through a year w ith ou t incurring expenditures for one
or m ore o f th em .
T h ese include m edical care, recreation, tobacco,
reading, education, contributions, and personal taxes.
I t is clear
th a t n o distinction can be drawn betw een these and the so-called
m ajor categories o f consum ption on the basis o f relative urgency or
on the basis o f the desire o f fam ilies to expand their consu m ption as
incom e perm its.
F or a given fa m ily, m edical care m a y be one o f the
m o st im p ortan t item s in the bu d get for a particular year, and m a y
take precedence over transportation and clothing and perhaps even
shelter.
O n the other han d, food, clothing, and h om e m aintenance
outlays, a t least for m o st fam ilies a t the upper incom e levels, u n
dou b tedly include a considerable a m o u n t o f lu xury expenditure.
In
general, how ever, the item s included am ong the m inor categories of
expenditure n o t on ly take a sm aller share o f the expenditure dollar
o f a fa m ily th an does a n y one of the m a jo r categories, b u t are of

restricted to a greater or less degree to m eet the lim itations im posed

A s can be seen b y reference to table 3 0 , average expenditures for
all o f these m inor categories com bined increased over the incom e
range w ith sufficient rapidity as to absorb an increasing proportion o f

I t is
rather interesting th a t, in general, the share o f the to ta l d evoted to

T h is reflects
chiefly the sm aller proportion o f the to ta l expenditure required for
housing in the sm aller com m un ities.
A t incom es o f $ 1 ,0 0 0 and over,

Medical care.— E x c e p t a t the upper incom e levels, m edical care
was, on the average, the m o st im p ortan t am ong this group o f expendi
tures.
I t included ou tlays for the services o f physicians, dentists,
oculists, and other specialists, clinic visits, hospitalization, nursing
services, m edical supplies, and health and accident insurance.
I t is well know n th a t expenditures for m edical care v a r y w idely, n o t
on ly from fa m ily to fa m ily , b u t for a n y one fa m ily from year to year.
O ften the largest ou tlays in this field, such as those associated w ith a
m a jo r operation, com e as u nbudgeted expenditures, w hich bear little
relationship to the n orm al fa m ily expenditure p attern.
E v e n ex
penses for dental care m a y w ithin a n y given y ear create difficulties
for a fa m ily .
Furtherm ore, available evidence suggests an inverse
relationship betw een a fa m ily ’s incom e and the a m ou n t o f illness to
which it is su b ject.1
A ll these factors m a k e for w ide variations am ong fam ilies in ex
penditures for m edical care, w hich are reflected in the averages for

In a lm ost every group, there

When the expenditures for medical care are distributed among the
more important constituent items, as shown in table 31 for white and
Negro families in Columbus, some rather clear differences are appar
ent.2 Among the white families, the largest share of the medical bill
went for services of the physician. This one item accounted for
from 25 to 40 percent of the total except among families at the top
of the income scale. Dentists’ fees absorbed an increasing share of

Outlays for amusements and recreational equipment increased at
a more rapid rate than did total money expenditures, particularly
among the white families. They never accounted for more than 5
percent of the total, however, except among the few white families
in Columbus with incomes o f $7,500 and over.9
Few consistent differences appeared among occupational groups in
average expenditures classified under the heading of recreation.
Among white families, those in the wage-earner group tended to make
low expenditures in all three urban units. In the small cities the
clerical group generally ranked high, but in Columbus and the middlesized cities the salaried groups most often reported the largest expend
itures. The differences were neither large nor consistent enough to
indicate that occupational classification was a factor of general sig
nificance in determining expenditures for recreation.10
As among families o f varying composition, there was a definite
tendency for the families containing only children under 16, in addi
tion to husband and wife (types II, III, and VI), to have higher
average expenditures for recreation than other families.11 Two-person
families, which might be expected to have more “ left over” for this
type o f expenditure, ranked fairly low .12
T oba cco .— Average expenditures for tobacco were a relatively con
stant item, multiplying four or five fold over the income range. (See
table 30.) Included here were outlays for cigars, cigarettes, pipes,
and smoking equipment. Together they accounted for between 1.5
and 3 percent of total money expenditures among white families at
all except the top income levels, and for between 0.9 and 2.7 percent
of the total for Negro families.13 A t the median income interval for
the whites covered by the expenditure survey ($1,750 to $2,000 in
Columbus, $1,500 to $1,750 in the middle-sized cities, $1,250 to $1,500
in the small cities), average expenditures for tobacco amounted to
between 50 and 75 cents per week per fam ily.14 Expense for tobacco
was definitely lower among Negro than among comparable white
families.
Neither family composition or occupational classification appeared
to have a clearly defined or consistent influence upon expenditures
for tobacco. In Columbus, however, families in the salaried proo See Tabular Summary, table 2.
This is corroborated by a comparison of expenditures of families of different occupational group within
each family type. Only in the middle-sized cities was there a significant difference; there the wage earners
had low expenditures. See supplement to Tabular Summary, table B, and appendix D.
See Tabular Summary, table 2.
When an analysis was made of family type differences within the several occupational groups, there
was sufficient variation to suggest that family composition was an important factor influencing recreation
expenditures, the families with children ranking high. See supplement to Tabular Summary, table B,
and appendix D.

fessional category tended to have low expenditures, while those in the
wage-earner group ranked high.
R e a d in g .— Outlays for reading, including newspapers, magazines,
books, and library fees, were a small but relatively constant item for
most of the families studied in the East Central region. They
amounted to about $5 per family, on the average, at the lowest
income levels, and rose to as much as $50 only among those families
in Columbus with incomes of $10,000 or more. (See table 30.)
These amounts were devoted chiefly to the purchase of daily news
papers.15 In general, reading accounted for about 1 percent of
average money expenditures, regardless of income level. Outlays
of this type were remarkably similar in the middle-sized and small
cities, among families of comparable incomes. They were generally
slightly smaller among Columbus white families, and still smaller
among the Negro families studied there. Neither occupational
classification nor family composition was an important factor in
determining expenditures for reading.
E d u c a tio n .— While almost all families reported some expenditures
for reading, there were many that did not report any expenditure for
formal education during the year o f the survey. This was generally
true, as might be expected, among two-person families.
Expenditures for education, when averaged for all families,
amounted to less than $5 per year among those with incomes under
$1,000. (See table 30.) Even at the other end of the income scale,
they amounted, on the average, to only about 1 percent of total
money expenditures, except among Columbus families with incomes
of $10,000 and over. A t the lower income levels, the small amounts
reported were spent mainly for school books and supplies for children
in the public schools. A part of the increase in average amounts at
the upper income levels resulted from the fact that a few families
there reported tuition payments for children at school and college.16
Family composition, is o f course the most significant factor in edu
cation expense. The largest families (type V II) and those containing
three to six persons, with at least three o f them over 16 (types IV and
V ) ranked high, with two-person families and those containing one or
two children under 16 (types II and III) at the other extreme.17 There
were no significant differences in average expenditures for education
among families in the various occupational groups.

Based on tabulations in Bulletin No. 648, vols. I and II. Board and room for children attending school
or college away from home were allocated to food and housing, respectively.
A test of variations among families of three to six members, with occupational group held constant,
indicates that families containing one or two children in addition to the husband and wife (types II and III)
tended to have the lowest expenditures, while the larger families, particularly those of type V, had the
highest average expenditures. See supplement to Tabular Summary, table B, and appendix D.

Contributions and personal taxes.— Expenditures for contributions to
individuals and institutions and for personal taxes18 were among the
most elastic of any category of expenditure. For some purposes it is
convenient to think of them as a single category of expenditure,
differing from other types of expenditure in that they are not
undertaken for the direct satisfaction of the material needs of the
family making the expenditure.
U p to the $3,500 level among Columbus white families virtually
the entire outlay was for contributions. (See table 32.) It rose from
about $5 to $79 between the income level of $500 to $750 and of
$3,000 to $3,500. Contributions rose from less than 1 percent to
over 3 percent of total money expenditures between these levels.
Beyond the $3,500 level among Columbus white families the combined
category o f “ contributions and personal taxes” became more impor
tant than expenditures for medical care or recreation. The amounts
spent increased sharply above the $3,500 income level to $317, or
over 7 percent of total money expenditures, for families with incomes
between $5,000 and $7,500, and $1,136, or 15 percent, of total money
expenditures, for families with incomes of $10,000 and over.
Contributions and personal taxes both increased in absolute amount
from one income level to the next. But the rising percentage of total
expenditures going to this combined category of expense among
Columbus white families at the highest income levels is due in con
siderable part to the inclusion of personal property and income taxes.
Since husband-and-wife families were exempt from Federal income tax
up to $2,500 and families with two dependents up to $3,300, it follows
that personal taxes first accounted for any substantial part (5 percent)
of this combined category o f expense at the income level of $3,500 to
$4,000. A t the $5,000 to $7,500 level, personal taxes accounted for $39
or about one-eighth of the combined expenditures for contributions
and personal taxes, and at the $7,500 to $10,000 level, for $174 or over
two-fifths of all expenditures for this category. A t the highest level
surveyed, personal taxes amounted to $365, but declined in relation
to the total for this category of expense to about one-third. Con
tributions, as distinct from personal taxes, constitute 5.9 percent of
the total money expenditures of families with incomes of $3,500 to
$4,000,4.2 percent among the group of families with incomes of $7,500
to $10,000, and 10.2 percent among those with incomes of $10,000 and
more. In other words, while contributions expand steadily and more
rapidly than total expenditures at incomes below $3,000, above that
level they vary irregularly as a proportion of total expenditures.
is Excludes sales taxes, which were included in the expense for the items to which they applied; automo
bile taxes, which were included in automobile operation expense; taxes on owned homes, included in housing
expense; and taxes on other real estate, which were deducted from the gross income from such property.

Contributions to religious organizations and gifts 19 to persons (other
than relatives) not members of the economic family were most impor
tant in this group o f items throughout a large portion of the income
scale. Outlays for the support of relatives increased rapidly in rela
tive size, until above the $3,500 level they generally exceeded in
amount gifts to other persons. Donations to community welfare
agencies were generally small, averaging $8 for the year among fami
lies with incomes below $3,000.
N o personal taxes were reported by Columbus Negro families, which
were studied only at the income levels below $3,000. Contributions
to the church, Sunday school, and mission generally accounted for
the largest portion of all their contributions, amounting to one-half to
three-fourths of the total at all but one income level from $250 to
$2,250.
The situation in the middle-sized and small East Central cities was
somewhat different from that in Columbus. The combined outlays
for contributions and personal taxes rose from about 2 percent of total
money expenditures at the lowest levels to 7 percent among families
with incomes of $3,000 and over in the small cities and 9 percent among
those receiving incomes above $5,000 in the middle-sized city unit.
Personal taxes, however, were o f greater relative importance at the low
than at the high income levels, since in these cities relatively few fami
lies were studied with incomes above $3,500, and only among such
families are income taxes important, while a poll tax and a gross in
come tax were levied in the Indiana cities, and a school tax and an oc
cupational tax based on industrial and professional classification, in
the Pennsylvania cities.
Average outlays for the combined category “ contributions and per
sonal taxes” were inversely related to size of city. Moreover, Negro
families generally had larger expenditures than white families in
Columbus.
The occupational classification of a family apparently had little in
fluence on expenditures in this field, but family composition was a
factor of some importance. Two-person families almost uniformly
reported high average outlays for contributions and personal taxes,
while the larger families, particularly those containing children under
16, generally ranked low. Two-person families would naturally be
is Included are all nonmoney gifts to persons not members of the economic family. Gifts exchanged within
the family are entered in the appropriate sections of the schedule. The character of gifts to nonfamily mem
bers is not known, however; hence, from the point of view of market analysis, a study of aggregate purchases
for specific categories, made from these expenditure data, will somewhat underestimate the total purchases
made by these families.
A study of check list data gives an indication of the value of clothing and of furnishing or equipment re
ceived as gifts from persons outside the family. It seems reasonable to assume that the value of such gifts
was roughly equivalent to the amounts spent by members of the families studied for similar gifts to persons
outside the family. No information was requested, however, concerning the value of other types of gifts
received.

better able than larger families to make contributions to others, either
to individuals or through social agencies. They would have smaller
exemptions and would therefore pay larger income taxes at the upper
income level.20
S u m m a r y .— Since the minor categories of expense constitute a
highly heterogeneous group o f items, the individual family situation
during the year 1935-36 was very important in determining how much
a family spent for these goods and services in comparison with their
outlay for the larger categories. Family tastes and habits were highly
significant in influencing the distribution of the remaining amounts
among such goods and services as recreation, reading, education, or
gifts.
Nevertheless, despite individual variations, income was dominant
in determining the amounts spent for the minor categories. The
average expenditures for each increased fairly steadily at succeeding
income levels, those for medical care at approximately the same rate
as total expenditures, those for tobacco and reading slightly less
rapidly, and those for recreation, education, contributions, and per
sonal taxes, more rapidly.
There were no clear occupational differences with respect to the
minor categories of expense that were consistent throughout the three
city units. Family size and age composition had a well-defined in
fluence on expenditures for education and contributions and personal
taxes, and a somewhat less clearly marked influence on recreation
expenditures.
C ity size in the East Central region appears to have had considerable
influence on these expenditures. Families in the small cities generally
reported the highest average expenditures for medical care, recreation,
reading, and gifts, contributions, and personal taxes. For the most
part, there were no clear-cut differences in the medical care and recre
ation expenditures of families in the other city units, though Columbus
families reported the lowest average outlays for reading and contri
butions and personal taxes. Racial differences in expenditures for
some o f the minor categories were also clearly marked. White
families in Columbus spent more than Negro families for recreation,
reading, and tobacco, and less than Negro families for contributions
and personal taxes, and for education as well, at the higher levels.
20
Examination of family type variations within the several occupational groups confirms these findings.
See supplement to Tabular Summary, table B, and appendix D.
Chapter V III
Surplus and D eficit Items
A summary of the relationship between the current annual money
incomes and expenditures of families studied in the East Central
region was presented in chapter II. It was found that at successive
income levels an increasing proportion of families ended the year 1935-36
with a net surplus and a decreasing proportion reported a negative
balance o f income and expenditures. Correspondingly, there was a
shift from large average deficits for all families at the lower income
levels to substantial average surpluses for those at the higher levels.
N a tu r e o f changes i n assets a n d lia b ilities .— A more detailed exami
nation o f the data on surpluses and deficits indicates that almost all
the families that incurred deficits during the year achieved sur
pluses with respect to one or more of the items which went to make
up the balance sheet. The great m ajority of them, for example,
reported some insurance premiums paid. On the other hand, few of
the families, however large their net surplus for the year, failed to
draw upon reserves or incur obligations with respect to one or more
of the items on the deficit side of the ledger.
The purpose o f the present chapter is to examine the various
changes, negative and positive, reported in family assets and liabili
ties for the schedule year, in order to measure their relative importance
and to see how the final statement of surplus or deficit for the year
was made up.1
It should be recognized at the outset that no attempt was made in
the present study to determine the total assets of the families inter
viewed, or the sum total o f their liabilities. They were asked to
report only as to the net increases and net decreases that had taken
place in each item during the 12-month period covered by the sched
ule. As noted above, almost all families paid some insurance prem
iums during the year, which increased their assets correspondingly.
Perhaps some of them had withdrawn money from savings accounts
in order to pay these premiums; in such cases, assets were decreased
by the amounts withdrawn. Some families made investments in
business or purchased securities, which meant an increase in assets.
If these investments were paid for b y money taken from a checking
account, assets were decreased by that amount.

M a n y fam ilies paid sum s on the principal o f m o rt

Others took o u t new m ortgages
or increased the principal o f existing ones, which m ea n t an increase

T h e n et result o f all these changes for each fa m ily

above in C o lu m b u s, and m ore than $50 0 for fam ilies w ith incom es of
$ 2 ,2 5 0 and m ore.
Increases in assets were alw ays larger in average am ou n t than
decreases in liabilities.
In deed, am ong w hite fam ilies in the tw o city
units, increases in assets com prised 70 to 90 percent o f all surplus
item s, a t alm ost all incom e levels.
Insurance prem ium s p a i d 3 were a very im p ortan t factor in increases
in assets, generally exceeding all decreases in liabilities in average
am oun t.

“ Surplus items” has been used to mean items of increase in assets and decrease in liabilities. These are
distinguished from “ deficit items,” i. e., items of decrease in assets and increase in liabilities. The final
family surplus or deficit (as distinguished from surplus or deficit items) may be computed as the balance
between these two sets of items. It will be seen that this balance is (except for balancing difference, see
glossary, p. 354) necessarily the same as the difference between current money income and current money
expenditure.
* In a study among Federal employees carried on by the Bureau of Labor Statistics just prior to the
initiation of this investigation, the schedule provided for securing information on the type of insurance
covered by the premiums reported. It was found that very frequently informants were unable to provide
the information and the question was not included in the present schedule. It is, therefore, impossible to
estimate how much of the amount paid in life insurance premiums represents savings and how much was
paid for insurance protection during the schedule year.

1 Surplus items consist of increases in assets and decreases in liabilities.
A m o n g N egro fam ilies in C o lu m b u s, life insurance prem ium p a y

F urtherm ore, insurance accounted for b u t
3 to 6 percent o f th e m o n ey incom e o f N eg ro fam ilies, and show ed no

It
is interesting to n ote th a t this situ ation is in contrast to th at fou nd

than the form er, even exceeding insurance p ay m en ts, on the average,
am ong fam ilies w ith incom es o f $ 1 ,7 5 0 and m ore.
P a y m en ts on the principal of ou tstan ding m ortgages were m ost

w ith incom es o f $ 1 ,0 0 0 and m ore, and a t all b u t one level th roughout
the incom e range for fam ilies in the m iddle-sized cities.
R edu ctions
in outstan ding bills (charge and in stallm en t purchases, grocery and
doctor bills) were the largest item am ong C olu m b u s w hite fam ilies
w ith incom es o f $ 5 0 0 to $ 1 ,0 0 0 , and thereafter generally n ext to m o r t
gage p ay m en ts in am ou n t, alth ough th ey seldom exceeded $ 3 0 , on
the average.
T og eth er these tw o categories accounted for practically
the full a m o u n t o f the decreases in liabilities.
In su m m ary, then, the total o f surplus item s show ed a clear relation
ship to incom e, and w as m ade up prim arily o f increases in assets, which
increased steadily in average a m ou n t a t successive incom e levels.
Decreases in liabilities likewise tended to increase in a m ou n t, b u t at
a m u ch slower rate.
The deficit side of the ledger.— T h e to ta l o f deficit item s show ed
on ly a lim ited relationship to incom e, the average am o u n t being
larger for C o lu m b u s w hite fam ilies w ith incom es o f $ 2 ,2 5 0 to $ 2 ,5 0 0
than a t a n y other incom e level below $ 5 ,0 0 0 .
A m o n g fam ilies in the
m iddle-sized cities, the average to ta l o f the deficit item s was larger
a t the $ 2 5 0 -$ 5 0 0 incom e level ($ 2 3 3 ) th an a t a n y other level up to
$ 5 ,0 0 0 .
(See table 3 5 .)
F urtherm ore, this to ta l w as m ade up at
som e incom e levels in large part o f decreases in assets; at others, of
increases in liabilities.
In general, how ever, increases in liabilities
were the larger; this w as true a t all b u t tw o levels betw een $750
and $ 4 ,0 0 0 am ong C olu m b u s w hite fam ilies for exam ple.
Decreases
in assets were a p t to be the m ore im p ortan t am on g the upper incom e
groups, since these fam ilies m ore often h ad accum ulated reserves
upon which th e y could draw if the necessity arose.

than the corresponding increases reported on the surplus side o f the
ledger.
In other w ords, fam ilies w ith incom es up to $ 1 ,7 5 0 reported

T h e average increases am oun ted to m ore th an $10 0 per fa m ily at

All deficit items represent the sum of decreases in assets and increases in liabilities for families at the respective income levels. Many of these families also reported increases in
assets and decreases in liabilities, as shown in table 33. The algebraic sum of total surplus and total deficit at a given income level is the average net surplus or deficit, as shown in
table 5, ch. II of this bulletin.

Other decreases in assets were very irregular in average amount.
A t no income level, among Columbus white families, for example,
did decreases in investments amount to more than $36, on the aver
age. A t most income levels, moreover, increases in investments, on
the surplus side, were much larger in average amount than these
reductions, which contributed to deficits. Insurance policies settled
or surrendered varied erratically in average amount, as would be
expected, indicating that this was an important item to a few families.
Among increases in liabilities, no one item clearly predominated,
nor did any of them show a very consistent trend with income.
Increases in the principal of mortgages were quite irregular in aver
age amount, as contrasted with the decreases reported on the surplus
side, which showed a rather clear tendency to rise at successive income
levels. Increases in loans due to banks or individuals averaged as
much as $20 at only two income levels, among Columbus white
families, although at all but one income level up to $7,500 they
equalled or exceeded the decreases reported among surpluses.
In general, the most important form of increase in liabilities among
the families studied in the East Central region was in balances due
on installment purchases and on bills to the doctor, the grocer, or
the department store. Increases of this kind were relatively most
important among Columbus white families with incomes below
$1,500. A t succeeding income levels, they shared first place with
increases in the principal of mortgages. Among white families in
the middle-sized cities, however, increases in balances due were the
largest item at all but three levels over the income range.
Among the families studied, these balances due were chiefly those
on installment purchases. It is therefore worth while to investigate
this item in some detail for white families in Columbus, by way of
illustration. The increases in amounts due on installment pur
chases, which contributed to deficits, were at almost every income
level more important than the decreases reported on the surplus side.
Furthermore, as shown in table 36 a considerably larger percentage
of families reported increases than decreases at each income level.
Thus, while the maximum proportion of families reporting decreases
in balances due on installment purchases was 12 percent at any in
come level, among white families in Columbus, at least 20 percent
reported increases during the year at all income levels between $750
and $5,000. And while the average amount of decrease per family
reporting decreases exceeded $200 at only two income levels, the
average increase per family exceeded $200 at six income levels.
(See table 36.)
It is thus clear that the families studied ended the report year
owing considerably larger average balances on installment purchases

than at the beginning of the year. This accords with what might be
expected during a year of improving business conditions after a severe
depression. Examination of the detailed figures indicates that in
creases consisted chiefly of balances due on automobiles, although at
the lower income levels, balances due on purchases of furniture, and,
at the middle levels, of electric refrigerators, were fairlys ubstantial.6

summarizing the findings with respect to family surplus and deficit,
it m ay be worth while to consider the source of all funds used for
family living at different levels in the income scale and the total dis
bursements of families at those levels. The funds used for family
living included current money income together with amounts with
drawn from accumulations of previous years and unpaid obligations
incurred during the year covered by the survey. Disbursements, on
the other hand, included not only money expenditures for consumer
goods and services, but also the amount of their increases in assets
and their decreases in previously incurred obligations.
In figure 5 the source and distribution of funds used are presented
for Columbus white families at selected income levels. It will be seen
that at the lowest income level ($500 to $750), current money income
provided only about four-fifths of the funds disbursed during the
year, decreases in assets and increases in liabilities supplying the re
mainder in about equal proportion. M oney expenditures, on the
other hand, considerably exceeded money income, and constituted
all but 4 percent of total disbursements, the balance being made up
of increases in assets. Increases in assets were at this level less than
one-half as great, on the average, as decreases in assets.

SURPLUS AND DEFICIT ITEMS
A t the next income level, current money income took care of a
considerably larger share of total disbursements, decreases in assets
and increases in outstanding obligations each contributing one-half the
remainder. M oney expenditures for current family living still ex
ceeded current money income, though less markedly than at the lower
level. Increases in assets just balanced the decreases. Decreases in
previously incurred obligations, however, contributed only 1 percent

to total disbursements, while increases in liabilities constituted 5
percent of all funds used.
A t the median income interval, money, income which exceeded
money expenditures, provided 91 percent of funds used for family
living. Decreases in assets and increases in liabilities contributed
about equally to the total. Increases in assets, however, were almost
four times as great as decreases in liabilities, comprising 11 percent
of total disbursements.

A t the $5,000 income level, money income furnished 92 percent of
the funds disbursed, a share only slightly larger than at the median
interval; at the $7,500 level, money income provided 98 percent of the
total. For families in the former group, the remainder was made up
almost equally of reductions in past accumulations and increases in
unpaid obligations. M oney expenditures on the other hand, decreased
markedly in relation to total disbursements, amounting to 65 percent
among families with incomes of $7,500 to $10,000. Disbursements
other than for current living consisted mainly of increases in assets,
which increased correspondingly, amounting to 35 percent of the total.
The most striking feature of this summary presentation is the shift
over the income range from drawing on past accumulations among
the nonrelief families covered at the low income levels to the building
up of very substantial savings on the part of high income families.
Chapter IX
Summary
The discussion of family expenditures in the preceding chapters was
primarily in terms of averages, and of variations in those averages
that were associated with differences in income level, in occupational
classification, and in family composition. These averages necessarily
obscured the differences among individual families within a given
classification in amounts spent and the apportionment of that spend
ing. While it is important to consider how widely families similar in
certain established respects differ among themselves in expenditures
for consumption goods and services, the averages that have been pre
sented make it possible to discern the broad outlines of family con
sumption patterns, and the differences in those patterns that may be
expected among families of different socio-economic status.
V a ria tio n in total exp en d itu res a m on g fa m il ie s w ith sim ila r in c o m e s .—
Throughout the income range, there was wide variation among fami
lies in the amounts spent for current family living. (See table 37.)
Among Columbus white families, the highest total expenditure re
ported at almost every income level was three or four times as great
as the lowest, while among Negro families the highest was generally
about twice as great as the lowest. For both groups, however, the
range was as wide at the top of the income scale as at the bottom .
Among white families with current incomes of $500 to $750, expendi
tures for current family living ranged from less than $500 to more
than $1,500; at the median level ($1,750 to $2,000), the range was
from below $1,300 to more than $3,500. Negro families reported
expenditures that varied from less than $500 to more than $1,000 in
the former income class, and from less than $1,600 to more than $2,700
in the latter.
A t income levels below the median, comparatively few of either the
white or the Negro families reported expenditures more than $250
below the limits of the income interval in which they were classified.
From one-seventh to one-fourth of Columbus white families had
expenditures above these limits; a smaller proportion among Negro
families. A t incomes above the median, an increasing proportion of
families had expenditures within the limits of the income interval in

which they fell, and many had expenditures below these limits, while
relatively few, either white or Negro, had expenditures which exceeded
their income interval. Am ong white families with incomes of $2,500
to $3,000, for instance, about two-thirds had expenditures of less than
$2,500, about one-fourth between $2,500 and $3,000, and less than
one-sixteenth reported expenditures o f over $3,000. Among Negro
families in the same class, almost four-fifths reported a value of living
below $2,500, and the remainder, expenditures below $2,800.
When similar data are examined for individual categories, the
variations from family to family are even wider, relatively, than
are found in total expenditures for current family living. Such
variations reflect the wide differences among families in their habits
and tastes, as well as in the circumstances that operate in any given
year to m odify their usual pattern o f spending.1
T h e share o f f o o d , clothing, a n d h ou sin g i n the f a m i l y budget .— Despite
the dispersion of expenditures at any given income level, certain limits
(elastic, to be sure) are set to a fam ily’s expenditures for many goods
and services b y the sums absorbed b y the three basic essentials of
living, food, shelter, and clothing.2 In combination, these three
groups of expenditure accounted, on the average, for three-fourths
or more o f total expenditures o f families with incomes under $1,000.
(See table 38.) A t the median income interval for families in each
urban unit, they absorbed about two-thirds of the total. Only
among the relatively few white families in Columbus with incomes of
$10,000 and over was less than one-half of total expenditures devoted
to the necessities.
The overwhelming importance of food, shelter, and clothing at the
lower income levels, and their declining importance at succeeding
income levels, is even more striking when measured in terms of income
rather than expenditures. Among white families with incomes of
$500 to $750, food, housing, and clothing accounted for about 90
percent of incom e; among Negro families with corresponding incomes,
for 85 percent. A t $2,500 to $3,000, the share of income going to
these categories had declined to less than 55 percent for whites and
to 43 percent for Negroes. Columbus white families in the highest
bracket studied spent only one-fourth of their incomes in this way.
i
See appendix E for discussion of variability in family expenditures. See also U. S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics Bulletin 642, Family Income and Expenditure in Chicago, Washington, 1939, vol. II, ch. IX ,
for data on occupational and family type differences in the range of total expenditures.
a It is of course true, as already pointed out, that, among families at the upper income levels, expenditures
for these three categories include elements of comfort and display as well as the means for the satisfaction of
basic needs. Indeed, clothing expenditures behave in a manner characteristic of luxuries, increasing in rela
tive importance at successive income levels.

i The income and expenditure figures used in preparing this table include the money value of food, housing,

E x p en d itu r e s f o r recreation , a u tom obiles , an d household h elp .— In con
trast to expenditures for food, clothing, and housing, are outlays that
may be classed as luxury expenditures, in the sense that one or all of
them could, in the face of necessity, be dispensed with by most fami
lies. These include outlays for automobiles (purchase and operation),
recreation, and household help. In marked contrast to the large but
slowly declining share of total expenditures absorbed by the first group,
the luxury expenditures accounted for a small but rapidly increasing
proportion. Among families with incomes below $1,500 ($1,250 in
the small cities) they accounted for less than 10 percent of the total,
on the average. (See table 38.) A t the other end of the income
scale, they amounted to more than one-fifth of the total. An average
of less than $75 was spent for recreation, automobiles, and house
hold help by those whose incomes averaged less than $1,000, but over
$900 b y the few with incomes of $5,000 and more. In contrast to the
necessity expenditures, which multiplied only 7 times over the entire
income range for Columbus white families, the second group increased
almost 55 times, or twice as rapidly as income. A t the bottom of the
income scale, Columbus white families spent 16 times as much, on the
average, for the necessity group as for the luxury group. At the top
of the income scale, they spent only twice as much.
There was in general a direct relationship between city size and
average expenditures on the necessities, reflecting chiefly the higher
average housing expense in the larger communities. With reference
to the luxury expenditures, there were no consistent differences be
tween Columbus and the middle-sized cities, but average expenditures
in the small cities tended to exceed those in the larger communities, due
to higher average expenditures for recreation and for household help.
As between white and Negro families in Columbus, the latter had
definitely lower average expenditures on the necessities, reflecting
their lower food expense and their slightly lower housing expense. In
general, they tended to have lower expenditures on the luxuries, as
well, since their outlays for recreation and automobiles were relatively
small.
R elative changes in exp en d itu res w ith chan ges in in c o m e .— The fore
going chapters have shown differences in the relative increases in
expenditures for the several categories of goods and services as suc
cessively larger incomes make possible a growing latitude in consumers'
choices.
It is possible to obtain a rough measure of the elasticity of various
types of expenditure over a given income range by comparing on a
percentage basis the average expenditures of families at the lower and
upper ends of that range. Elasticity varies in different parts of the
income scale, and, since average expenditures increase in successive

income classes, it is also greater or less, depending on the length of the
range selected for comparison.
When average expenditures are compared for Columbus white
families over a range that begins with the groups receiving $500 to
$1,000 and ends with those receiving $5,000 and over, the following
percentage increases in expenditures are obtained for the individual
categories, arranged in order from the smallest relative increase to the

Over this range, which represents an 824 percent increase in total
income, total expenditures rose only 494 percent and a net deficit of
$99 was replaced b y a net surplus of $2,339. Expenditures for to
bacco and food increased less than 2% times, while average expendi
tures for the purchase o f automobiles and for contributions and per
sonal taxes increased more than 47 times. Of the basic and recurrent
categories o f consumption, food was the least elastic, with an increase
in average outlay o f 233 percent, and household operation was the
most elastic, with average expense rising over 1,800 percent.
The manner in which elasticity in expenditures varied for Columbus
white families in different parts of the income scale is indicated by the
lists appearing below, which present the individual categories ar
ranged according to the percentage increases in average expenditures
from $500-$749 to $1,000-$1,249 and from $3,000-$3,499 to $5,000$7,499. The first involves an increase in average income of about 75
percent and a decrease in net deficit of 79 percent. The range be
tween the two upper groups represents an increase in income of 84
percent and a rise in the net surplus of 166 percent.

The elasticity in expenditures for food, tobacco, transportation
other than by automobile, furnishings, automobile operation and
purchase, education, and contributions and personal taxes was greater
in the lower part of the income scale than in the upper part. The
most striking difference was in respect to automobile purchase. Only
in the case of recreation and household operation was elasticity in
expenditures appreciably greater at the top of the income scale.
The shift in the position of housing is also interesting: Relatively
least elastic among families at the lower levels, it was more elastic
than food, tobacco, other transportation, medical care, and furnish
ings, over the higher range. Expenditures for medical care, which
increased 46 percent over the range from $3,000-$3,499 to $5,000$7,499, showed a 22 percent decline over the lower range, because of
the unusually high expenditures of families with incomes of $500
to $750, probably representing no more than a sampling fluctuation.
The elasticity of expenditures among Columbus Negro families
with incomes of $500-$749 to $1,000-$1,249 was somewhat greater
than that for Columbus white families over the same range. While
the income of white families increased 75 percent and that of Negro
families, 80 percent, the total expenditures of the former rose 48
percent and those of the latter, 56 percent. Expenditures for all
categories except food, housing, transportation other than by auto
mobile, recreation, and personal care and contributions increased more

rapidly among the Negroes. This reflects the tendency of Negro
families even at the lowest income level studied to keep their spending
down to the level of their income, while white families maintained
a more rigid minimum level of expenditures.
The growth over the income range in average expenditures by
Columbus white families for the main categories is shown graphically
in figures 6 and 7. These figures indicate both the level of outlay
and the relative increase in different parts of the income scale.3 The
relatively small increases for both food and housing, noted in chapters
III and IV, are strikingly shown in figure 6. Among the other
categories, a number show relative increases that are very similar.
All categories of expenditure showed a clear tendency toward a
relatively slower increase at the higher income levels, although this
was least clearly marked with respect to contributions and personal
taxes, recreation, and education. This flattening of the curves reflects
the growing importance of various forms of savings with increases
in incomes.

E x p en d itu r e s at su ccessive in co m e levels .— As has been indicated,
data for individual families reveal great differences among families
both in the general level of spending and in the apportionment of
the total among consumption goods and services. When families are
classified into groups that are homogeneous in certain established
respects, however, their average expenditures for broad categories
assume such regularity of design that it is possible to speak of the
“ patterns” of expenditure at successive income levels in the com
munities studied. The designs become especially apparent when the
families studied are grouped into a few broad income classes and the
pattern of expenditure is compared for families at these economic
levels. (See table 39.)

as a proportion of income among Negro families, but nevertheless
were less important for them. The most striking difference between
white and Negro families in comparable income groups was in respect
to the balancing of income and total expenditures. Negro families
with an average income of $780 reported a substantially smaller
average net deficit than did the Columbus white families whose
incomes averaged $828. A t higher income levels, when all expendi
tures for consumer goods and services were accounted for, Negro
families had a much wider margin than white families for savings and
the repayment of previously incurred obligations. These differences
may reflect in part more restricted opportunities for spending in the
case of Negro families; they may reflect, too, greater employment
security and greater ease in securing credit, on the part of white
families; on the other hand, they may represent in part variations in
the standards of living of the white and Negro families studied in
Columbus, that is, differences in the amount of pressure to raise the
level of living with increases in income.
T A B U L A R SU M M ARY
The data presented in the following tables summarize, by major
groups, the expenditures of native families living in selected urban
communities in the East Central region. In Columbus, Ohio, both
white and Negro families were studied; in the other communities,
white families only. The middle-sized city tabulation unit comprised
Muncie, Ind., New Castle, Pa., and Springfield, 111. The small-city
unit included Beaver Falls and Connellsville, Pa., Logansport and
Peru, Ind., and M attoon, 111.
The data on expenditures were obtained only from nonrelief families
containing husband and wife, both native born. N ot all families
meeting these requirements were scheduled, but the number of
eligible families in the different income, occupational, and familytype groups is given in column 2 of all tables in order to show their
relative frequency in the community. (See statement in section on
sampling, appendix A, regarding the “ eligible” sample.)
Due to the infrequency of families in the business and professional
categories at the lower income levels, and of families in the wage
earner and clerical groups at the upper income levels, data presented
for “ All families” and for families of each type include the different
occupational groups at the following income levels:

levels was so small that data are not shown for incomes of $2,250 and
over. D ata for “ All families” at the income level $250 to $499 include
two families in the independent business and professional category
for which data are not shown b y occupational break-down.
D ata on families with no gainfully employed members (shown foi
white families in Columbus and the middle-sized cities) are not
included in any of the tables for “ All families,” nor in the tabulation?
by family type. The data on this group of families are separately
tabulated; they are not weighted b y family type, but are pooled
within a given income bracket for all families classified in this category
(see section on sampling). In the case of Columbus families in this
group, the small number of cases necessitated combined tabulation
of data for families with incomes between $3,000 and $4,000, and
between $5,000 and $10,000. In the middle-sized cities, data were
tabulated together for families in this category with incomes between
$3,000 and $4,000.
SUPPLEMENT T O T A B U L A R SU M M ARY
Tables A and B are presented for the use of students who are in
terested in studying expenditures with three control factors— occupa
tion, family type, and income. In view of the small number of cases,
alternate income classes were combined, so that the income intervals
for the detailed data are twice as broad as those on which the main
b ody of the analysis is based. Nevertheless, as will be noted on
examination of column 3 on these tables, the number of cases in
many of the cells is very small. As a result, the averages are subject
to large random fluctuations, especially with reference to such items
as medical care and furnishings and equipment, where, even with a
relatively large number of families represented, the coefficients of
variation are very high.
I n contrast to the data appearing in the m ain part of the T ab u la r
S u m m a ry , based on tw o controls, these figures, controlled b y incom e,
occupational group, and fa m ily ty p e, are presented even w hen th ey
are based on fewer th an three cases.
T h is has been done in p art to
show the basis o f the d ata presented in m ore sum m arized fo rm , and
p artly in order to give special students in the field all the m aterial
available.
I t will be n oted th a t, in som e cases, averages based on
one or tw o fam ilies v a r y no m ore erratically th an those based on six
or eight, the variation depending on b o th the character o f the expend
iture category and the extent to which the fam ilies represented m igh t
be said to h av e a typ ical expenditure pattern.

C o l u m b u s ( W h it e )
table 1
1 See glossary, appendix B, for eligibility requirements.
2 Money income is equal to the sum of money expenditure (column 7) plus net surplus or deficit (column 8)
plus net balancing difference (column 9).
3 Nonmoney income from housing includes imputed income from owned family or vacation homes plus
rent received as pay or gift (average amounts based on all families, whether or not they reported such nonmoney income).
4 Includes purchases on cash or credit basis. Does not include money disbursements resulting in an
increase in family assets or a decrease in liabilities. (Examples of disbursements not treated as expenditures
will be found in the glossary, appendix B.)
6 See glossary, appendix B, for definitions of surplus and deficit.
8
Represents the average net difference between reported money receipts and reported money disburse
ments. See glossary, appendix B. A maximum balancing difference within 5.5 percent was allowable
on each schedule.
TABLE 1-A
1 A surplus represents an increase in assets or a decrease in liabilities, or both; a deficit represents a decrease
in assets or an increase in liabilities, or both.
2 Some families reported neither surplus nor deficit for the year; therefore the sum of columns 5 and 6 does
not always equal 100 percent.
3 Since the average amounts in these two columns are based on the number of families reporting surplus
or deficit, respectively, they do not add to the average net surplus or deficit shown in column 4 for all families.
TABLE 2
1The averages in this table include money expenditure for goods and services purchased on either cash
or credit basis. They do not include value of goods and services received without money expense. Aver
ages are based on all families, whether or not they reported expenditures for the specified categories.
2Housing expenditures include the money expense of home owners and rent contracted for by renting
families for family homes and other housing. The value of fuel, light, and refrigeration is included when
furnished by the landlord and included in the rental rate.
3Includes all expenditures for operation and maintenance (see table 8), and the net purchase price (gross
price less trade-in allowance) of automobiles bought during the schedule year. The proportion of automo
bile expense chargeable to business has been deducted. See glossary, appendix B.
4 Includes paid admissions, equipment and supplies for games, sports, and other recreation, club dues, and
the like. Does not include expense for transportation, food, or lodging while on vacation.
5 Taxes include only poll, income, and personal property taxes. All other taxes, such as those on real
estate, amusements and retail sales taxes are included as a part of the expenditure for these items. Gifts
do not include gifts from one member of the economic family to another.
TABLE 3
1 Includes expenditures for board at school, which amounted to less than 5 percent of average food expense
for all families with incomes of less than $7,500. Among families in the business and professional categories,
it amounted at most to an average of $86, at the income level $7,500 and over. For families of type V, it
amounted at most to an average of $197, at the income level $7,500 and over.
2 See glossary, appendix B, for method of deriving this figure.
TABLE 4
1 Includes housing expenditure for both owners and renters. Average amounts for renting families are
based on rental rate contracted for. Value of fuel, light, and refrigeration is included when furnished by the
landlord and included in the rental rate. See table 4-A for percentage of families for whom these facilities
were included as part of the rental rate.

See glossary, appendix B, for method of deriving this figure. Includes nonmoney income from owned
vacation homes, which amounted at most to an average of $38 for all families, at the income level $7,500 and
over.
6 Percentages based on the average value of all housing (column 6).
TABLE 4-A
1 These two percentages do not always add to 100, since families that both owned and rented during thi
year, or received rent as gift or pay, are not included in columns 4 through 7.
2 Percentages based on renting families reporting these facilities included in rent at the end of the schedule
year.
TABLE 5
1 Excludes value of fuel, light, and refrigeration furnished by the landlord and included in the rental rate.
Fuel received without money expense is not included in this average, but amounted to less than 5 per
cent of money expense for fuel, light, and refrigeration for all families.
2 See glossary, appendix B, for items included.
TABLE 6
1 Value of clothing gifts from one family member to another are included in the average expenditure for
the member receiving such gifts. Gifts of clothing to or from individuals outside the economic family are
excluded.
2 For families of type I, averages and percentages shown in columns 7 and 10 are for individuals who were
members of the economic family less than 27 weeks, and were therefore not considered equivalent members
n determining family type. See glossary, appendix B, for method of classifying families by type.
TABLE 7
1 See glossary, appendix B, for items included.
TABLE 8
1 To obtain the average expense of operation for families owning automobiles, divide the average shown
in this column by the corresponding figure in column 4 and multiply by 100.
2 To obtain the average net purchase price (gross price less trade-in allowance) for families purchasing
automobiles, divide the average shown in this column by the corresponding figure in column 5 and multiply
by 100.

Footnotes for Tables in Expenditure Tabular Summaries
C o lu m b u s (N egro)
table 1
1 See glossary, appendix B, for eligibility requirements.
2 Money income is equal to the sum of money expenditure (column 7) plus net surplus or deficit (column
8) plus net balancing difference (column 9).
3 Nonmoney income from housing includes imputed income from owned family or vacation homes plus
rent received as pay or gift (average amounts based on all families, whether or not they reported such non
money income).
4 Includes purchases on cash or credit basis. Does not include money disbursements resulting in an
increase in family assets or a decrease in liabilities. (Examples of disbursements not treated as expenditures
will be found in the glossary, appendix B.)
6 See glossary, appendix B, for definitions of surplus and deficit.
6
Represents the average net difference between reported money receipts and reported money disburse
ments. See glossary, appendix B. A maximum balancing difference within 5.5 percent was allowable
on each schedule.
TABLE 1-A
4
A surplus represents an increase in assets or a decrease in liabilities, or both; a deficit represents a decrease
in assets or an increase in liabilities, or both.
2 Some families reported neither surplus nor deficit for the year; therefore the sum of columns 5 and 6 does
not always equal 100 percent.
3 Since the average amounts in these two columns are based on the number of families reporting surplus or
deficit, respectively, they do not add to the average net surplus or deficit shown in column 4 for all families.
TABLE 2
1The averages in this table include money expenditure for goods and services purchased on either cash
or credit basis. They do not include value of goods and services received without money expense. Aver
ages are based on all families, whether or not they reported expenditures for the specified categories.
2Housing expenditures include the money expense of home owners and rent contracted for by renting fami
lies for family homes and other housing. The value of fuel, light, and refrigeration is included when fur
nished by the landlord and included in the rental rate.
3Includes all expenditures for operation and maintenance (see table 8), and the net purchase price (gross
price less trade-in allowance) of automobiles bought during the schedule year. The proportion of automo
bile expense chargeable to business has been deducted. See glossary, appendix B.
4 Includes paid admissions, equipment and supplies for games, sports, and other recreation, club dues, and
the like. Does not include expense for transportation, food, or lodging while on vacation.
6
Taxes include only poll, income, and personal property taxes. All other taxes, such as those on real estate,
amusements, and retail sales taxes are included as a part of the expenditure for these items. Gifts do not
include gifts from one member of the economic family to another.
TABLE 3
1 Includes expenditures for board at school, which amounted to less than 5 percent of average food expense
for all families. Among any group of three or more families in the business and professional categories, it
amounted at most to an average of $10, at the income level $750-$999. For any group of three or more fam
ilies of types IV and V, it amounted at most to an average of $3, at the income level $750-$999.
2 See glossary, appendix B, for method of deriving this figure.

1 Includes housing expenditure for both owners and renters. Average amounts for renting families are
based on rental rate contracted for. Value of fuel, light, and refrigeration is included when furnished by the
landlord and included in the rental rate. See table 4-A for percentage of families for whom these facilities
were included as part of the rental rate.
Percentages based on the average value of all housing (column 6).
3 See table 4-A for separation of expense for owning and renting families.
* Includes net money expenditure for owned or rented vacation homes, lodging while traveling or on va
cation, and room at school.
8
See glossary, appendix B, for method of deriving this figure. Includes nonmoney income from owned
vacation homes, which amounted at most to an average of less than $1 for all families.
2
TABLE 4-A
1 These two percentages do not always add to 100, since families that both owned and rented during the
year, or received rent as gift or pay, are not included in columns 4 through 7.
Percentages based on renting families reporting these facilities included in rent at the end of the schedule
year.
T ABLE 5
2
1 Excludes value of fuel, light, and refrigeration furnished by the landlord and included in the rental rate.
Fuel received without money expense is not included in this average, but amounted to less than 5 percent
of money expense for fuel, light, and refrigeration for all families with incomes of $500 and over.
See glossary, appendix B, for items included.
2
T ABL E 6
1 Value of clothing gifts from one family member to another are included in the average expenditure for
the member receiving such gifts. Gifts of clothing to or from individuals outside the economic family are
excluded.
For families of type I, averages and percentages shown in columns 7 and 10 are for individuals who were
members of the economic family less than 27 weeks, and were therefore not considered equivalent members
in determining family type. See glossary, appendix B, for method of classifying family type.
2
TABLE 7
i See glossary, appendix B, for items included.
TABLE 8
1 To obtain the average expense of operation for families owning automobiles, divide the average shown in
this column by the corresponding figure in column 4 and multiply by 100.
2 To obtain the average net purchase price (gross price less trade-in allowance) for families purchasing
automobiles, divide the average shown in this column by the corresponding figure in column 5 and multiply
by 100.

1 See glossary, appendix B, for eligibility requirements.
2 Money income is equal to the sum of money expenditure (column 7) plus net surplus or deficit (column 8)
plus net balancing difference (column 9).
3 Nonmoney income from housing includes imputed income from owned family or vacation homes plus
rent received as pay or gift (average amounts based on all families, whether or not they reported such non
money income).
4 Includes purchases on cash or credit basis. Does not include money disbursements resulting in an
increase in family assets or a decrease in liabilities. (Examples of disbursements not treated as expendi
tures will be found in the glossary, appendix B.)
6 See glossary, appendix B, for definitions of surplus and deficit.
6
Represents the average net difference between reported money receipts and reported money disburse
ments. See glossary, appendix B. A maximum balancing difference within 5.5 percent was allowable on
each schedule.
T A B L E 1-A
1 A surplus represents an increase in assets or a decrease in liabilities, or both; a deficit represents a de
crease in assets or an increase in liabilities, or both.
2 Some families reported neither surplus nor deficit for the year; therefore the sum of columns 5 and 6
does not always equal 100 percent.
3 Since the average amounts in these two columns are based on the number of families reporting surplus
or deficit, respectively, they do not add to the average net surplus or deficit shown in column 4 for all
families.
TABLE 2
1 The averages in this table include money expenditure for goods and services purchased on either cash
or credit basis. They do not include value of goods and services received without money expense. Aver
ages are based on all families, whether or not they reported expenditures for the specified categories.
2 Housing expenditures include the money expense of home owners and rent contracted for by renting
families for family homes and other housing. The value of fuel, light, and refrigeration is included when
furnished by the landlord and included in the rental rate.
3 Includes all expenditures for operation and maintenance (see table 8), and the net purchase price (gross
price less trade-in allowance) of automobiles bought during the schedule year. The proportion of auto
mobile expense chargeable to business has been deducted. See glossary, appendix B.
4 Includes paid admissions, equipment and supplies for games, sports, and other recreation, club dues,
and the like. Does not include expense for transportation, food, or lodging while on vacations.
8 Taxes include only poll, income, and personal property taxes. All other taxes, such as those on real
estate, amusements, and retail sales taxes are included as a part of the expenditure for these items. Gifts
do not include gifts from one member of the economic family to another.
TABLE 3
1 Includes expenditures for board at school, which amounted to less than 5 percent of average food ex
pense for all families. Among families in the business and professional categories, it amounted at most to
an average of $46, at the income level $4,000-$4,999. For families of type V, it amounted at most to an
average of $93, at the income level $5,000 and over.
2 See glossary, appendix B, for method of deriving this figure.
252
TA B U L A R S U M M A R Y

TA B L E 4
1 Includes housing expenditure for both owners and renters. Average amounts for renting families are
based on rental rate contracted for. Value of fuel, light, and refrigeration included when furnished by the
landlord and included in the rental rate. See table 4-A for percentage of families for whom these facilities
were included as part of the rental rate.
2 See table 4-A for separation of expense for owning and renting families.
3 Includes net money expenditure for owned or rented vacation homes, lodging while traveling or on
vacation, and room at school.
*■ See glossary, appendix B, for method of deriving this figure. Includes nonmoney income from owned
vacation homes, which amounted at most to an average of $2 for all families, at the income level $3,000$3,499.
6 Percentages based on the average value of all housing (column 6).
T A B L E 4-A
1 These two percentages do not always add to 100, since families that both owned and rented during the
year, or received rent as gift or pay, are not included in colunms 4 through 7.
2 Percentages based on renting families reporting these facilities included in rent at the end of the schedule
year.
TABLE
5
1 Excludes value of fuel, light, and refrigeration furnished by the landlord and included in the rental
rate. Fuel received without money expense is not included in this average, but amounted to less than 5
percent of money expense for fuel, light, and refrigeration for all families.
2 See glossary, appendix B,for items included.
TA B L E 6
1 Value of clothing gifts from one family member to another are included in the average expenditure for
the member receiving such gifts. Gifts of clothing to or from individuals outside the economic family are
excluded.
2 For families of type I, averages and percentages shown in columns 7 and 10 are for individuals who
were members of the economic family less than 27 weeks, and were therefore not considered equivalent
members in determining family type. See glossary, appendix B, for method of classifying families by
type.
T ABL E 7
i See glossary, appendix B, for items included.
T ABL E 8
1 To obtain the average expense of operation for families owning automobiles, divide the average shown in
this column by the corresponding figure in column 4 and multiply by 100.
2 To obtain the average net purchase price (gross price less trade-in allowance) for families purchasing
automobiles, divide the average shown in this column by the corresponding figure in column 5 and mul
tiply by 100.

t abl e

1 See glossary, appendix B, for eligibility requirements.
2 Money income is equal to the sum of money expenditure (column 7) plus net surplus or deficit (column
8) plus net balancing difference (column 9).
3 Nonmoney income from housing includes imputed income from owned family or vacation homes plus
rent received as pay or gift (average amounts based on all families, whether or not they reported such non
money income).
4 Includes purchases on cash or credit basis. Does not include money disbursements resulting in an
increase in family assets or a decrease in liabilities. (Examples of disbursements not treated as expenditures
will be found in the glossary, appendix B.)
8 See glossary, appendix B, for definitions of surplus and deficit.
« Represents the average net difference between reported money receipts and reported money disburse
ments. See glossary, appendix B. A maximum balancing difference within 5.5 percent was allowable on
each schedule.
T ABL E 1-A
1 A surplus represents an increase in assets or a decrease in liabilities, or both; a deficit represents a decrease
in assets or an increase in liabilities, or both.
2 Some families reported neither surplus nor deficit for the year; therefore the sum of columns 5 and 6 does
not always equal 100 percent.
8 Since the average amounts in these two columns are based on the number of families reporting surplus
or deficit respectively, they do not add to the average net surplus or deficit shown in column 4 for all families.
TA B L E 2
4 The averages in this table include money expenditure for goods and services purchased on either cash
or credit basis. They do not include value of goods and services received without money expense. Aver
ages are based on all families, whether or not they reported expenditures for the specified categories.
2 Housing expenditures include the money expense of home owners and rent contracted for by renting fam
ilies for family homes and other housing. The value of fuel, light, and refrigeration is included when fur
nished by the landlord and is included in the rental rate.
3 Includes all expenditures for operation and maintenance (see table 8), and the net purchase price (gross
price less trade-in allowance) of automobiles bought during the schedule year. The proportion of automo
bile expense chargeable to business has been deducted. See glossary, appendix B.
4 Includes paid admissions, equipment and supplies for games, sports, and other recreation, club dues, and
the like. Does not include expense for transportation, food, or lodging while on vacation.
8 Taxes include only poll, income, and personal property taxes. All other taxes, such as those on real
estate, amusements, and retail sales taxes are included as a part of the expenditure for these items. Gifts
do not include gifts from one member of the economic family to another.
TA B L E 3
1 Includes expenditures for board at school, which amounted to less than 5 percent of average food expense
for all families. Among families in the business and professional categories, it amounted at most to an aver
age of $19 at the income level $2,500-$2,999. For families of type IV, it amounted at most to an average of
$47, at the income level $3,000 and over.
2 See glossary, appendix B, for method of deriving this figure.
T ABL E 4
1 Includes housing expenditure for both owners and renters. Average amounts for renting families are
based on rental rate contracted for. Value of fuel, light, and refrigeration is included when furnished by
the landlord and included in the rental rate. See table 4-A for percentage of families for whom these facil
ities were included as part of the rental rate.
2 See table 4-A for separation of expense for owning and renting families.
293
294
FAMILY EXPENDITURE IN EAST CENTRAL REGION
s Includes net money expenditure for owned or rented vacation homes, lodging while traveling or on
vacation, and room at schoool.
4 See glossary, appendix B, for method of deriving this figure. Includes nonmoney income from owned
vacation homes, which amounted at most to an average of $7 for all families, at the income level $3,000 and
over.
* Percentages based on the average value of all housing (column 6).
T A B L E 4-A
1 These two percentages do not always add to 100, since families that both owned and rented during the
year, or received rent as gift or pay, are not included in columns 4 through 7.
2 Percentages based on renting families reporting these facilities included in rent at the end of the schedule
year.
TABLE 5
2 Excludes value of fuel, light, and refrigeration furnished by the landlord and included in the rental rate.
Fuel received without money expense is not included in this average, but amounted to less than 5 per
cent of money expense for fuel, light, and refrigeration for all families with incomespf $500 or over.
2 See glossary, appendix B, for items included.
TA B L E 6
1 Value of clothing gifts from one family member to another arc included in the average expenditure for
the member receiving such gifts. Gifts of clothing to or from individuals outside the economic family are
excluded.
2 For families of type I, averages and percentages shown in columns 7 and 10 are for individuals who were
members of the economic family less than 27 weeks, and were therefore not considered equivalent members
in determining family type. See glossary, appendix B, for method of classifying families by type.
TABLE 7
1 See glossary, appendix B, for items included.
