Abstract

The limited focus of this investigation is automobile property tax delinquency in Lubbock for the year I960. In that year, approximately 18 per cent of the automobile owners who registered their vehicles in the municipality were delinquent. The present research is designed to determine what, if any, social factors are associated with tax delinquency. The tax delinquent individual is distinguished from the non-delinquent, and variables such as chronic delinquency and payment of delinquent taxes are analyzed from a perspective of social class.
