The Secretary of L abor: I have the honor to transmit herewith a report on the income, expenditures, and savings of families of 2 or more persons in Birmingham, Ala.; Indianapolis, Ind.; and Portland, Oreg., prepared by Helen M. Humes and Mary C. Ruark, in the Bureau’s Division of Prices and Cost of Living under the supervision of Abner Hurwitz, Chief of the Cost of Living Branch. The data presented in this volume were obtained in the Survey of Prices Paid by Families in 1945, which was the first survey since 1934-36 to provide information for individual cities on family expenditures and savings in relation to income. The study was planned and conducted under the direction of Dorothy S. Brady and Lenore A. Epstein. The collection of the data was supervised in Birmingham by Catherine Glenn, in Indianapolis by Olive T. Kephart and Minnie B. McIntosh, and in Portland by Ethel B. Cauman. E wan C lague, Hon.

Selection of Cities The information on family income, expenditure, and savings summarized in this bulletin was obtained by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in its Survey of Prices Paid by Families in 1945, con ducted in the spring of 1946 in Birmingham, Ala., Indianapolis, Ind., and Portland, Oreg. These surveys provide the first data since the 1934-36 period on family expenditures and savings in relation to income for individual cities. Similar data on a Nation-wide basis were obtained for 1941 and 1944.1 Beginning with these surveys for 1945, the Bureau initiated a series of area studies to be conducted in 3 to 6 cities each year until all 34 large cities included in its Consumers, Price Index are surveyed. These studies are designed as a check on the prices of goods and services and the weighting patterns used in the calculation of the index. Surveys covering family expenditures for 1946 have been conducted in Milwaukee, Wis., Savan nah, Ga., and Scranton, Pa., 1947 family expendi ture data have been obtained for Manchester, N. EL, Kichmond, Va., and Washington, D. C.; and, at the time of this printing, 1948 data are being obtained in Detroit, Mich., Houston, Tex., and Denver, Colo.12* In selecting Birmingham, Indianapolis, and Portland as the first of the 34 cities to be surveyed, several factors were considered. The eight largest cities in the group were excluded from the 1945 study for budgetary reasons; Savannah, Ga., and Washington, D. C., were eliminated because there had been no previous expenditure study on an area basis in these two cities that would permit comparisons with an earlier period. The cities chosen, scattered geographically and similar in size, were faced with reconversion problems of varying kinds and degrees of severity. Factors Affecting Comparison of 1945 and 1934-36 Data Similar income and expenditure data for Birmingham, Indianapolis, and Portland were obtained in 1934-36.8 Comparison of those data with these in the present report, must take into consideration the differing economic conditions of the two periods. Wartime conditions of rationing and price controls, accompanied by acute shortages of many items of food, clothing, housefurnishings, and durable goods, continued throughout 1945. Incomes and employment also continued at high levels and substantial savings were still being made. In contrast, the years of 1 See Bureau of Labor Statistics Bulletins No. 822, Spending and Saving in Wartime, and No. 838, Wartime Food Purchases; also articles published in the Monthly Labor Review, as follows: October 1945—City Gardens in Wartime; January 1946—Expenditures and Savings of City Families in 1944; February 1946—Food Purchases by City Families in February 1945, and City-Family Composition in Relation to Income, 1941 and 1944; May 1947—Housing and Fuel Expenditures of City Families. 2 Summary data for the 1946 survey are available from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. For the 1947 summary data and survey procedures see Monthly Labor Review, April 1949—Family Income and Expenditures in 1947 (pp. 389-397) and Procedures Used in 1947 Family Expenditure Surveys (pp. 434-435). 2 For Birmingham data, see Bureau of Labor Statistics Bulletin No. 640: Money Disbursements of Employed Wage Earners and Clerical Workers in Twelve Cities of the South, 1934-36; for Indianapolis data, see BLS Bulletin No. 636: Money Disbursements of Wage Earners and Clerical Workers in Eight Cities in the East North Central Region, 1934-36; for Portland data, see BLS Bulletin No. 649: Family Income and Expenditure in Four Urban Communities in the Pacific Northwest, 1935-36, vol. II, Family Expenditure. a) 2 1934-36 were characterized by low incomes, a high rate of unemployment, and an excess of lowpriced goods. Veterans’ bonus payments stimu lated purchase of durable goods beyond what might be considered normal for that period. In order to properly evaluate differences in the expenditure patterns shown by the two surveys, comparisons must be made for families at com parable economic levels. The differing economic conditions prevailing at the time of the two sur veys make this difficult. Because of increases in incomes, and unequal rises in retail prices of the various groups of consumption items, comparison of data for the same income class results in com paring families that have very different relative positions in the income scale or differ widely in occupational and other characteristics, such as family size, age of members, or number of earners. For example, many families of full-time employed wage earners in 1934-36 had incomes of less than $1,000. In 1945, because of high wages, good employment conditions, longer workweek, and increase in the number of family members who were employed, there were practically no wageearner families in this low income bracket. The “under $1,000” income class in 1945 consisted almost exclusively of casual earners, pensioners, indigents, etc. The problem of deflating 1945 incomes to derive estimated real incomes in terms of 1934-36 prices involves the difficulties of determining appropriate deflating factors. Furthermore, while the deflating process provides the means of com paring expenditure patterns of families who have equivalent purchasing power, there still remain the differences in expenditure patterns which result from differences in family size, age, and occupational and employment status at the two survey dates. In addition to general economic conditions which make conclusions based on comparisons of the data for the two periods difficult, there are technical differences in the two surveys that must be recognized. The 1934r-36 surveys for Bir mingham and Indianapolis included only families of employed wage earners and lower-salaried clerical workers. The 1945 surveys in these places included families of all occupational groups and unemployed as well as employed persons. In addition, minor differences in definitions and survey procedures in regard to the handling of specific expenditures may seriously affect com parisons of the detailed data for the two years. Area Coverage The surveys covered the city proper and the suburban areas which make up the housing market of each city. In Indianapolis, the suburban areas included were Beach Grove, Speedway, Woodruff Place, Augusta, Ben Davis, Edgewood, Mars Hill, and neighborhoods directly adjacent to the south ern limits of the city. The Birmingham survey covered, in addition to the city proper, Fairfield, Homewood, Irondale, Mountain Brook, Redmont, and Tarrant City. The Portland survey included the suburban areas of Gresham, Milwaukie, Fairview, and Troutdale, Oreg., and Vancouver, Wash. Selection of the Sample Within Cities Sample units were drawn from the block listings developed for the Bureau’s dwelling unit surveys * to represent all civilian families and single persons in each city. These samples were selected from three strata: (1) Blocks which contained dwellings (excluding public housing projects) according to the 1940 census, classified by number of dwellings and predominant race of residents; (2) blocks having no dwelling units according to the 1940 census; and (3) public housing projects. The dwelling unit survey block listings were supple mented by field investigation to include rooms in lodging houses, hotels, non-inmate residences in in stitutions, and new construction. The appro priate proportion of living quarters, i. e., dwelling units and rooming units, to be included in the ex penditure survey was obtained by selecting every nth address from these supplemented block list ings. Whenever a dwelling unit was found to house more than one “economic family,” 8 each family was included in the sample. Sample Size The sample for Birmingham consisted of 247 living quarters which yielded 197 families and single consumers who were eligible for inclusion in the study and who were willing and able to re port the necessary information. In Portland a sample of 262 addresses produced 191 usable re * For a detailed description of the sample design used in these surveys see The Rent Index—Methodology of Measurement, in Monthly Labor Review, January 1949 (p. 60). * For definition see p. 3. 3 ports. For Indianapolis two samples of 258 ad dresses and one sample of 259 addresses were drawn; these samples yielded 205, 185, and 206 usable reports, respectively. No substitutions were made for families or single consumers who refused information or who could not be contacted. The data presented in this bulletin were obtained from economic families of two or more persons.6 The report is based on information obtained from 170 families in Birmingham and 149 families in Portland. For Indianapolis, information on fam ily characteristics, living arrangements, taxes, and income was obtained from all families of two or more persons included in the three samples; data for housing, fuel, light, refrigeration, household operation, savings, and debt were obtained from 171 families in the first sample; information on ex penditures for food, housefurnishings, and equip ment was obtained from 171 families in the second sample; data for clothing, medical and personal care, recreation, education and gifts, travel and transportation, and miscellaneous family expenses were obtained from 155 families in the third sample. Use of “Split Schedule” Technique in Indianapolis For Portland and Birmingham the procedure used in recording the income and expenditure data for each family was in accordance with the Bureau’s usual practice for such surveys, i. e., each family in the sample was asked to give an account of its total income and total expenditures with a detailed report of the source of the income and the amount of expenditure for each item of family living. If the initial report indicated a discrepancy of 10 percent or more between the reported income and reported expenditures (after savings and deficits were considered), the family was re questioned in an attempt to account for this “balancing difference.” Reports which could not be balanced within the 10-percent tolerance were not used in the summary tabulations. In the Indianapolis survey, an experimental technique for data collection was attempted. As explained above, the items of expenditure were split into three segments, and information for each segment was obtained from only one• • Expenditure data for single consumers are not included in this report. 833112°—49----2 sample. Thus no family gave & complete record of all expenditures, and it was not possible to balance the income and expenditure reports of each family as is normally done in Bureau surveys of this kind. Since each sample was representative of all families and single consumers in the city, it was possible to combine and summarize the data obtained without weighting or other adjustment procedures. The inability to balance individual income and expenditure reports, however, resulted in the unusually large balancing differences shown in table 1 for Indianapolis. Reliability of the Data Since the data presented in this bulletin are based on reports obtained from a sample of all families in each city, they are subject to sampling variability. The sampling variability of a per centage figure depends on both the size of the percentage and the size of the total on which it is based. The variability of an average depends on the size and shape of the distribution from which it is derived. These measures of sampling varia bility can be calculated using standard statistical formulas. However, in addition to sampling variability the data are subject to errors of response and nonreporting. Most of the informa tion given is based on memory rather than on records. Because of the tendency to forget irregu lar sources of income and some expenditures for day-to-day living essentials, the memory factor probably results in underestimates. Since such errors cannot be easily measured, no estimate of the probable errors in these data have been made. Definitions Economic Family The consumer unit defined for this study is the “ economic family,” which may be either a family of two or more persons or a single consumer. An economic family of two or more persons is a group of persons dependent on a common or pooled in come for the major items of expense and usually living in the same household. The single con sumer is a person who lives as an independent economic family either in a separate household or as a roomer in a private home, lodging house, or hotel. In the great majority of cases, the members of 4 an economic family are related by blood, marriage, or adoption; groups of unrelated persons who share both income and expenses are seldom found. In applying the definition of an economic family, re lated persons living in one household were con sidered as forming two or more economic families only when the separation of finances appeared to be clearly defined. Even when children pay a specified sum for room and board, they frequently receive without charge many services financed by the family, such as use of the family car, personal laundry, and other sharing in general family living. Hence, earning sons and daughters who lived with their parents were not considered separate economic families unless their status in the household was clearly comparable to that of a roomer. Elderly parents with some income who live in the household of a son or daughter present a similar situation for interpretation. There may be a separation of finances to a certain degree, but the household in such cases usually provides services not made available to the un related roomer. Accordingly, persons related to the family that formed the nucleus of the house hold were generally considered as members of that family except when there was a clear separa tion of income and expenditures. Two families or single consumers who lived in one dwelling and shared household expenses but did not pool income were considered separate economic families. A family member working away from home dur ing the survey period, who contributed with some regularity to family support and came home ap proximately once a month or oftener, was treated as a member of the economic family, unless he was living in a military camp, post, or reservation. A child living away at school was considered a member of the economic family if the parents pro vided the major part of his support. Other persons supported by contributions from the family income but not living in the household were con sidered as separate economic families. Economic Families Eligible for Survey Although data for the 1945 study were collected during the spring of 1946, the composition of the family was taken as it existed on December 31, 1945. To be considered eligible for inclusion in the study, it was necessary for the family to have existed as an economic family during all of 1945. Full-year economic families, however, may have had part-year family members, i. e., persons who joined or left the family during 1945. Income and expenditures for part-year family members, for that portion of 1945 when they were in the family, were combined with the data for the rest of the economic family. Family Size The family size was based on equivalent persons, with 52 weeks of family membership considered equivalent to 1 person; 26 weeks equivalent to 0.5 person, etc. Economic families of two or more persons averaged 3.1 persons in Birmingham and Portland, and 3.2 persons in Indianapolis.

This category includes families sharing an entire dwelling, including the kitchen. A few families who occupied a room or rooms with more or less impermanent arrangement for cook ing, such as a hot plate, “light housekeeping,” or 5 with “kitchen privileges,” were included with “housekeeping” families in the following distribu tion by living arrangements. These “light house keeping” families were not considered as “house keeping” families in tables 2 and 12. Families who occupied a room or rooms and paid a set sum for meals served at a given place, or who bought all meals at restaurants during the year, were classified as “rooming and boarding” families. Families who occupied a dwelling with cooking facilities part of the year and a room part of the year were classified as “other.” The following tabulation shows the percentage distribution of families of two or more persons by living arrangements and annual money income after payment of personal taxes: Money income after personal taxes Living arrangement All in Under $1,000 $2,000 $3,000 $4,000 to and to to come classes $1,000 $2,000 $3,000 $4,000 over BIRMINGHAM, ALA.

Since money income after payment of personal taxes most accurately represents spendable income, it was used as the basis for classifying families. In order to obtain an accurate record of family income after payment of personal taxes, detailed information on wage and salary income before and after pay-roll deductions was obtained for each earner in the family. The “before tax” income from other sources for all members of the economic family was also recorded in detail, together with a record of tax payments and other deductions from income. The percentage distributions of families by in come after payment of taxes, as shown in table 1, are based on the sample results. In Indianap olis the sample distribution was adjusted to compensate for the relatively larger proportion of “no reports” in that city among certain occupa tional groups and rent levels. Income distribu tions for the other cities are unadjusted. M ONEY INCOM E The components of money income in this sur vey were specified on the schedule form as follows: Wages; salaries; earnings from independent busi ness or profession; receipts from roomers and boarders; interest and dividends; profits from enterprises owned but not operated by the family; net rents and royalties; unemployment insurance benefits; Federal old-age and survivors insurance benefits; other retirement benefits and industrial pensions; income from annuities; regular contribu tions from persons not in the family; direct relief payments; other money income; and losses. Certain of these items require explanation. Earnings. “ Wages” and “salaries” represent net receipts from employment, however short the period worked, including all sums withheld by the employer for insurance and retirement funds, the old-age and survivors insurance tax, and the unem ployment insurance tax. Amounts received from odd jobs and piecework, casual earnings, tips, and bonuses were recorded in the totals for wages and salaries. Net earnings from wages and salaries were determined by deducting from these totals the following items of occupational expense: Dues to unions and professional associations, including the cost of technical publications; supplies, equip ment, or tools paid for by the employees; traveling expenses and the portion of automobile operation expenses attributable to the pursuit of the occupa tion. Transportation to and from work was not considered an occupational expense. The net “earnings from independent business7 or profession” were recorded as a single figure. 7 Outside salesmen or insurance agents working on their own account or on a commission basis were considered self-employed. 6 Details on gross income and business expenditures gains were included under “other money income.” were obtained when necessary in order to deter The instructions for the field interviewers made mine the net earnings. The net amounts in clear that inheritances and occasional large gifts cluded the value of goods from stock, brought were to be entered as money receipts other than home for family use. (These goods were also income, and that amounts received from the sale entered as purchases under the appropriate ex of assets, the settlement of life-insurance policies, and borrowing were to be recorded in the state penditure categories.)

The remainder was considered an in benefits, alimony, prizes, rewards, and gambling vestment in business (an increase in assets). 7 charges, were considered part of the expenditure for the item to which they applied. Discounts and trade-in allowances were deducted from the gross price. Details of expenditures during the year 1945 were obtained for all consumption categories except food. Experience in surveys of this type has shown that it is not possible to obtain by the interview method reliable reports on the amounts spent on specific foods over periods of several months or a year. Therefore, for the annual re port, only estimates of the total amount spent for food at home and away from home were ob tained. A supplementary schedule was used to obtain a record of the items of food purchased during the week preceding the interview. The cost of the week’s purchases served as a check for the estimated annual expenditure for food. The consumption categories used in classifica tion were: Food (including alcoholic beverages); housing, fuel, light, and refrigeration;9 household operation; furnishings and equipment; clothing; automobile; other transportation; personal care; medical care; recreation; tobacco; reading; educa tion; and a miscellaneous group. The nature of the goods and services rather than the purpose for which they were used governed the classifica tion of most items in these groups. Special clothing for games and sports was included with clothing, and traveling expense for vacations was included imder automobile or other transportation. Board and room for children away at school were classed as expenditures for food and housing and not for education. Exceptions to this principle of classification were made in the case of school books, radios, and musical instruments. School books were included with education expenditures, and radios and musical instruments with rec reation expenditures. The “ miscellaneous” group included interest on debts incurred for family living; bank service charges, including safe deposit box; legal expenses connected with household affairs; losses concerned directly with the household, including amount of installments paid during period on repossessed furniture; funeral expenses, including upkeep and purchase of cemetery lot; and expense for other items, such as dues to political and to cooperative• • Since apartment rents In cities frequently cover payment for fuel, light, and/or refrigeration, expenditures for these items have been combined with those for housing in all tables showing the summary of expenditures. associations, marriage licenses, and flowers for the wedding of a family member; garden expenses for seeds and fertilizers; and feed for chickens for family food supply. Definitions of specific items included in the various categories of consumption are provided in the form of footnotes to the appropriate tables, as needed. Gifts and Personal Taxes Under “gifts and contributions,” were reported donations to churches and religious organizations, welfare agencies, war relief agencies, and educa tional funds; contributions for the support of relatives not members of the economic family; and amounts spent for gifts to friends and rela tives outside the economic family. “ Personal taxes” included Federal and State income taxes on individuals, poll taxes, and taxes on such personal property as furnishings and jewelry. Other taxes, such as sales taxes, excise taxes, and automobile and real estate taxes, were included as part of family living expenditures for the commodities and services to which they apply. Taxes on business property were deducted as an expense in estimating net income. The personal tax figures include all taxes of the types specified that fell due during the survey period, whether or not they were paid. (Unpaid taxes were also entered as an increase in liabilities.) Tax refunds received during the survey year were considered as deductions from current taxes. Sales Tax In cities where a sales tax was in effect the inter viewer was instructed to obtain all expenditures without tax. An exception to this was in the purchase of automobiles, where the agent was in structed to obtain gross price plus sales and Federal excise taxes. The sales tax has been com puted on and included in the total expenditure for the indicated item. This procedure may have resulted in an overestimate of the sales tax since some families may have unconsciously included sales tax for items where an annual estimate of expenditure was given. Birmingham: A retail sales tax of 2 percent has been added to all commodities to which it was applicable. Principal items not subject to tax were: Used automotive vehicles; school lunches; 8 text books; printed matter; lubricating oil and gasoline; alcoholic beverages, when sold by the State of Alabama; tobacco; vaudeville, theater, and road show tickets; utilities; and services. Indianapolis: No sales tax was in effect in Indianapolis. Portland, Oreg.: A retail sales tax of 3 percent in effect in the State of Washington has been added to all commodities to which it was appli cable for those schedules obtained in Vancouver, Wash. Principal items not subject to tax were automobiles, motor vehicle fuel, newspapers, public utilities, and services. credit associations; balances owing on installment purchases; charge accounts and other bills due; and rents and taxes due. For each economic family the algebraic sum of all the changes was calculated, giving the net change in all assets and liabilities during the period. A positive net change, which appears when the total increases in assets and total decreases in liabilities exceed the total decreases in assets and total increases in liabilities, was designated a net surplus. A negative change in all assets and liabilities was called a net deficit. Changes in Assets and Liabilities The averages given in this report are based on all families in the class, regardless of whether or not they purchased the particular item. Average expenditures for families purchasing the particular item may be computed from data given by divid ing the average expenditure for all families by the percentage of families purchasing the item. In any small sample where data are subdivided by classes, some irregularities in the data are to be expected, especially among items where expen ditures may vary substantially in amount or occur at infrequent intervals, for example, medical care items. No adjustments, except those indi cated on the individual tables, have been made in the averages given in this report. Incomeclass averages given are those yielded by the original reports. For the year 1945 the difference between the family’s income and other money receipts and its outlays for current living, gifts, and personal taxes is accounted for by changes in assets and liabilities, except for allowable reporting errors.10 Each economic family included in the survey was asked to report on the increases or decreases that had taken place during the year in each of its assets and liabilities. All changes recorded result ed from money transactions, such as the purchases and sale of property. Increases or decreases in the market value of real estate, securities, and other property held by the family were not considered. Assets included bank accounts and money on hand; investments in business and real estate; Government bonds and other securities; insur ance; improvements on owned homes or other real estate; and loans made to others. Liabilities included amounts payable on mortgages; notes due to banks, insurance companies, and indi viduals; amounts due to loan companies and Computation of Averages 10 Due to the difficulty experienced by respondents in accounting com pletely for receipts (i. e., income, other money receipts, and funds made available through liquidation of assets or through credit) and disbursements (i. e., outlays for current consumption, gifts, and taxes, and money used to increase assets or decrease debts), a margin of tolerance was set up for dis crepancies between the two. A schedule was considered acceptable if the difference was less than 10 percent of receipts or of disbursements, whichever was the larger. Tabular Summary The following tables present details of expendi ture for families of two or more persons who constituted separate spending units during the year. Tables 1 through 11 provide annual expenditure data, by annual net income class, for all families who existed as an economic unit dining the full year of 1945. Table 12 provides data, by 1945 net income class, on 1 week’s expenditure for food purchased for consumption at home by families who were housekeeping at the time of the interview.
