Hi Everyone, If you are having trouble getting into the FTP site, please try the password again, make sure to only copy the characters. When you start downloading some large files, it would also be helpful to copy them separately, a few folders at one time.

It had tracts at the workplace but I am not sure if it covered the the whole state. And then finding it is another issue. Here is what i found to atleast shed some light on part 7, see page 188. http://onlinepubs.trb.org/onlinepubs/conf/1995/cp4/cp4.pdf. I could not find any of my 1990 transview versions of the data. I know I have a complete set minus one state somewhere. If you can find one of the CDs even though you can not extract the data without the extraction software look on it to see if there are any PDF files with documentation stashed on it. I seem to recall that there is. Sorry I could not be any more help right now.

The “statewide” element includes place-to-place, county-to-county for ALL counties in the USA, including rural (non-metropolitan) counties.

Houston, We Have a (Traffic) Problem

by Ed.Christopher＠dot.gov

You might want to check out the latest post from Terri Ann Lowenthal of The Census Project who nicely points out the importance of Census ACS data to transportation projects and the disconnects that exist when it comes to funding it, or the Census for that matter. ------------------------ Houston-area residents have been wasting a lot of time in traffic. Fortunately, Federal Highway Administration funds have helped expand the US 290/Hempstead Corridor, the major artery bringing commuters to and from their jobs in and around the Lone Star State's largest city. I know this because Rep. John Culberson (R-TX) highlighted the $267 million in federal grant money for this project on his congressional website. Rep. Culberson is the new chairman of the House Appropriations subcommittee that decides how much money the U.S. Census Bureau should get every year. http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/censusblog/~3/D5uNEUHYt6k/?utm_source=feedbu… Ed Christopher
