This study is primarily concerned with the role of residence in determining female labor force participation rates, amount of work time supplied, and income returns. Women offer different amounts of work time under different conditions. Commuting time is a restraint as are wage rates. In addition, place of residence acts as a proxy for other conditions which affect the amount of work time supplied. Women living in SMSA areas offer the same amount of work time but only at higher wages than rural women.
