Abstract
Demographic data for each of Ohio's southern counties cover juvenile population characteristics (race and age) for 1970, 1980, and projected for 1990 and 2000. Juvenile court statistics encompass the number of juvenile court complaints and adjudications by age, sex, and race for 1983. Data on juvenile dispositions address the number of residential facilities used for postdispositional confinement in 1983. Other data project the demand for juvenile detention/rehabilitation beds by 1990, indicate the financial condition of the county, and consider the likelihood that the county will construct new juvenile correctional facilities. Also included is a brief description of the South Central Ohio Regional Juvenile Court Center. Tabular and graphic data.
