2000 Urbanized Area

by Dickson, Brian

Hello, Maybe someone out there can help me. I am trying to find the 2000 Census Urbanized Area shapefiles so we can do a comparison of the 2000 vs. 2010 urbanized area boundaries. I have been searching all over the Census website and they have had great success in hiding this data from view. If anyone out there has the link to where you can download the 2000 urbanized area boundaries I would greatly appreciate it!

Census Single Family, Multi Family, & Auto Ownership

by John Voges

1. The 2010 census doesn't directly contain the information needed to determine single family and multi family dwelling units. A better indicator is the use of parcel data along with 911 data to determine single family and multi family dwelling units. 2. The 2010 census didn't collect the auto ownership data that was collected in 2000. However, the use of the DHSMV data will get you the exact auto ownership by address. -----Original Message----- From: ctpp-news-request(a)chrispy.net [mailto:ctpp-news-request@chrispy.net] Sent: Tuesday, July 03, 2012 16:36 To: ctpp-news(a)ryoko.chrispy.net Subject: ctpp-news Digest, Vol 101, Issue 6 Send ctpp-news mailing list submissions to ctpp-news(a)ryoko.chrispy.net To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://ryoko.chrispy.net/mailman/listinfo/ctpp-news or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to ctpp-news-request(a)ryoko.chrispy.net You can reach the person managing the list at ctpp-news-owner(a)ryoko.chrispy.net When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of ctpp-news digest..."

Re: [CTPP] Census pop estimates

by Patty Becker

Gee, I hope not. But it's very unclear what's going on. Loud protests might help.

Census pop estimates

by Ed Christopher

This is an interesting article Wendell Cox sent me from a friend of friend. We all remember when the Census Bureau changed from using county based estimates to using sub-county estimates in 2009 which are then used to factor and weight the ACS. I had thought the process of going from a county to a sub-county was a little more sophisticated but maybe its not. http://www.urbanophile.com/2012/06/30/misreferencing-misoverestimated-popul… -- Ed Christopher 708-283-3534 (V) 708-574-8131 (cell) FHWA RC-TST-PLN 4749 Lincoln Mall Drive, Suite 600 Matteson, IL 60443
