Re: [CTPP] Alternate source of disability data

Thank You! -----Original Message----- From: ctpp-news-bounces(a)chrispy.net [mailto:ctpp-news-bounces@chrispy.net] On Behalf Of Ed Christopher Sent: Thursday, February 16, 2012 12:37 PM To: ctpp-news(a)ryoko.chrispy.net Subject: [CTPP] Alternate source of disability data This link was sent along to Elaine and me via Anne Morris co-chair of the TRB Environmental Justice Committee from one of FHWA contacts. It is goes to data from the Social Security Administration and lists benefits by zip code, the number of individuals on Old-Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance program and the number of Disabled workers. It might be helpful in trying to identify the disability needs for a particular zip code or state or for that matter the number of individuals over 65. http://www.ssa.gov/policy/docs/statcomps/oasdi_zip/2010/index.html If you download the whole report the notes on what the data is all about and where it comes from are right up front. Anyone have experience using this data source? Anyone have a sense of how it might line up with our traditional Census sources? Is it any good? -- Ed Christopher 708-283-3534 (V) 708-574-8131 (cell) FHWA RC-TST-PLN 4749 Lincoln Mall Drive, Suite 600 Matteson, IL 60443 _______________________________________________ ctpp-news mailing list ctpp-news(a)ryoko.chrispy.net http://ryoko.chrispy.net/mailman/listinfo/ctpp-news
