  24. Introduction to Decennial Censuses • Decennial Census of Population & Housing • Summary Tape File/Summary File (STF/SF) • Public Use Microdata Sample (PUMS)

  25. Introduction to Decennial Censuses • What is Summary Tape File/Summary File (STF/SF) • The basic unit of analysis is a specific geographic area. • About counts of persons or housing units in particular categories. • Also called tabulated summary statistics.

  26. Example of STF/SF

  27. Introduction to Decennial Censuses • The Types of STF/SF • STF/SF 1 and 2 present tabulated data from the Census short-form (100%) questionnaire. • STF/SF 3 and 4 present cross-tabulations of information from the long-form (sample) questionnaire. • Tables in STF/SF 2 and 4 are iterated for many detailed racial groups, as well as American Indian and Alaska Native tribes. In SF4, many data are also tabulated by detailed ancestry groups.

  28. Introduction to Decennial Censuses • 2000 Census short-form questionnaire: • full population • six questions • Household relationship • Sex • Age • Hispanic or Latino origin • Race • Tenure (whether the home is owned or rented)

  29. Introduction to Decennial Censuses • 2000 Census long-form questionnaire: • a sample includes 15.8%-17% of full population • separates as two parts • Population • social and economic characteristics (14 areas) • Housing • physical and financial characteristics (11 areas)

  30. Introduction to Decennial Censuses • In 1980, and 1990 census data (STF1A, STF2B,STF3C,STF4D…): • Letter A,B,C,D indicate different level of the geographic area • A - block groups; B - block, zip codes; • C – place, county; D - Congressional district; • In 2000 census data, no letters indicate the level of the geographic area • Table indicators: • P - person; H - housing unit; • PCT/ PT – person down to Census tract level; HCT/ HT - occupied housing unit down to Census tract level; http://julius.csscr.washington.edu/Decennial%20Census.htm

  31. Introduction to Decennial Censuses • What is Public Use Microdata Sample (PUMS) • The basic unit of analysis is a housing unit or the person who live in it with identifiers (such as addresses, names, etc) removed to protect individual confidentiality. • It’s a stratified sample of the population which was created by sub sampling the full census sample that received census long form questionnaires

  32. Example of PUMS

  33. Introduction to Decennial Censuses • The Types of PUMS • 5-percent sample file (PUMS-A file) • 1-percent sample file (PUMS-B file)

  34. Introduction to Decennial Censuses • 5-percent sample file (PUMS-A file) • provides the user records for over 14 million people and over 5 million housing units • Public Use Microdata Areas (PUMA) is the lowest level of geographic identifier, with a minimum population threshold of 100,000 • Sample has only been produced since 1980

  35. Introduction to Decennial Censuses • 1-percent sample file (PUMS-B file) • Provides a fuller range of detailed characteristics • Provides the user records for over 2.8 million people and over 1 million housing units • Each super-PUMAs meet a minimum population of 400,000 and are composed of a PUMA or PUMAs delineated on the 5-percent PUMS files

  36. Introduction to Decennial Censuses • Integrated Public Use Microdata Series (IPUMS) http://www.ipums.umn.edu/ • Consists of thirty-eight high-precision samples of the American population drawn from fifteen federal censuses (1850 – 2000) and from the American Community Surveys of 2000-2008 • Is particularly useful for historical research because data can be comparable across time

  37. What is American Community Survey (ACS) • is a large, continuous demographic survey • produces annual and multi-year estimates of the characteristics of the population and housing • will replace the 2010 census long form by collecting detailed information throughout the decade • Short form still remains in 2010 decennial census

  38. ACS Program Schedule • Testing and development: 1994-2004 • Full implementation began in 2005 • Group Quarters data collection began in 2006

  39. What is a Group Quarters (GQ)? • Definition: A living quarter in which unrelated people live or stay other than the usual house, apartment, or mobile home. Examples: • Institutional: Nursing homes, hospitals, prison wards • Non-institutional: College dorms, military barracks, shelters

  40. Full Implementation • Annual national sample of approximately 3 million addresses in every county and American Indian and Alaska Native area in the United States • Provide profiles every year for communities of 65,000 population or more • Provide 3-year accumulations for communities of more than 20,000 population • Provide 5-year accumulations for all communities, the lowest geographic level could be block group

  41. ACS Data Release Schedule Before 2004 ACS the population threshold is 250,000+

  42. ACS file types • ACS Summary File (ACS SF) • ACS Public Use Microdata Sample • One-year PUMS (1-in-100, 1%, national random sample of the population, 1.3 million housing units & 3 million people) • Three-year PUMS (3-in-100, 3%, national random sample of the population, 3.9 million housing units & 9.1 million people) • Five-year PUMS (5-in-100, 5%, national random sample of the population) • Public Use Microdata Areas (PUMA) is the lowest level of geographic identifier, with a minimum population threshold of 100,000

  43. Comparing ACS with the Decennial Census long form questionnaires • Samples rate/size & design • Data collection • Residence rules & reference periods

  44. Samples rate/size & designComparison • Census sample estimates based on about 18 million housing units; ACS 5 year estimates based on about 11 million housing units, 1 year estimates based on about 3 million housing units • ACS samples every year and spreads sample over 12 months; census samples once a decade and uses the entire sample at the same time ACS estimates have higher sample error than census long form, however shown as 90% confidence limits or margins of error in every table. Similar sampling error measures for census long form sample estimates have not been provided

  45. Data Collection Comparison • ACS nonresponse follow-up uses computer-assisted telephone and computer-assisted personal interviews; past censuses have used only paper questionnaires; • ACS data collected only from household members; census data often collected from neighbors ACS has higher level of overall response and individual item response, so less chance of nonresponse bias, means lower potential nonsampling error

  46. Residence Rules Comparison • Decennial census based on concept of “usual residence” • The place where the person lives and sleeps most of the time • If a person had no usual residence, the person was to be counted where he or she was staying on Census Day • ACS uses a “two-month” rule - Resident of an address if a person • Lives there year round • Lives there more than 2 months but not year round • Is living there now with no other place to live? - Not a resident of an address if a person • Lives there 2 months or less with another residence • Is away now for more than 2 month Compare with Caution

  47. Reference Periods Comparison • ACS uses the interview date as the single reference point, or as the end of a reference period, for all data collection • Decennial census always use Census day-April 1st as reference point • Examples: • Income • ACS asks for income for the previous 12 months • Decennial census income data refer to the previous calendar year April 1 • School enrollment • ACS asks if a person attended school during the “last three months • Census 2000 asks if a person attended school “any time since April 1” Compare with Caution

  48. Comparison • Comparing ACS Data to Census 2000 & Other Sources http://www.census.gov/acs/www/guidance_for_data_users/comparing_data/ • When to use 1-year, 3-year, or 5-year estimates http://www.census.gov/acs/www/guidance_for_data_users/estimates/ • Comparing 2008 ACS data http://www.census.gov/acs/www/guidance_for_data_users/comparing_2008/

  49. Available ACS data • 2005 single-year ACS provides household population only for areas with populations of 65,000 or more • 2006, 2007 & 2008 single-year ACS provides household population and group quarters population for areas with populations of 65,000 or more • 2005-2007 & 2006-2008 three-year ACS provides household population and/or group quarters population for areas with populations of 20,000 or more

  50. ACS Data Release Schedule in 2010 • 2009 single-year ACS will be released by the end of September. These estimates will be available for the areas with populations of 65,000 or more. • 2005-2009 5-year ACS is planed to release in December. These estimates will be available for all areas regardless of population size, down to the census tract. Early in 2011, 2005-2009 ACS Summary Files down to the block group will be released as will the 2005-2009 PUMS files. • 2007-2009 3-year ACS is planed to release in January 2011. These estimates will be available for all geographic areas with populations of 20,000 or more.
