OWNERSHIP OF URBAN TRANSPORT UTILITIES IN THE UNITED STATES

The ownership status of urban transportation utilities was determined by questionnaire for 334 of the U.S. cities that had 1970 populations in excess of 50,000. (Of the 395 cities in this size category, 61 did not respond.) Of the 334 cities which reported, 85 had no public transportation. Seventy-seven utilities were owned by the city, 69 by other governmental units, and 103 by private investors. /GMRL/
