GENERAL NOTE:
In 1956-1964, the named community was coded according to its
approximate population at the time R was growing up. A community may
thus have been coded for the study into a size category different from
the size description chosen by R in his/her answer. "City" categories
by population during these years were (in general): under 10,000;
10,000-50,000; 100,000-250,000; 250,000+. For the codes here, the
250,000+ category was placed into "large city", while lesser-
population cities were included in code 3.
In 1966-1976, R's own perception of size of community was used.
