Abstract:
This paper examines the influence of first- and second-nature forces on the process of city formation in Oklahoma from 1890 through 1930. The natural experiment offered by the opening up of previously unoccupied land for settlement in central Oklahoma in 1889 and the rapid initial settlement reveals that population density was highest near railroads and pre-existing sites of (modest) habitation. Persistenceor second-nature forces dominate in explaining population growth over the first decade of settlement. The oil boom of 1900 to 1930 altered the productivity potential of many locations in Oklahoma. Oilshocks increased population in those areas most profoundly affected. We also find evidence that the effect of the shock is larger in areas with higher initial population density and places with a higher initial population.
