Beyond
Do you think it would be possible for someone to repost the spreadsheets to
the list listserve? I went to the archive but could not read the files.

Dear Everyone--
I know that reviewing this spreadsheet might seem tedious, but I
encourage you to
review it and provide your comments via the listserv, or
to me directly. The current status is that the residence-based tabulation
have been approved by the DRB for 2004 ACS data. The workplace-based
tables are still draft, and have not yet been approved by the DRB.
Any comments that we provide now will not likely change the 2004 data
tabulation,
but could be considered for the 2005 ACS data tabulation. This
is IMPORTANT because the 2005 ACS data is the first data from "full
implementation."
One comment on this set that arose at the TRB Census conference held May
11-13, was
to add to the AGE breakout "65 to 74" and then "75 and over".
This is because more people are continuing to work after age 65 and we need
to start tracking these trends.
I noticed that several tables include "earnings" but there are no tables
using "household income" as a variable. Do you want something that
cross-tabulates a Journey-to-work variable with household income? e.g.
Household income * Means of transportation to work, or household income * #
of Vehicles.?
To get the spreadsheets, please use the CTPP listserve archives at:
http://www.chrispy.net/pipermail/ctpp-news/ to find Phil's attachments from
his May 9th email.

Subject: [CTPP] Draft Proposal for Transportation-Related Data Products
from ACS for 2004 and Beyond
I will be delivering a presentation this week in Irvine CA at the
Transportation Research Board Conference, "Census Data for Transportation
Planning: Preparing for the Future." I've put together a handout to go
along with the presentation which outlines the transportation-related
content in some new and/or revamped ACS data products. These proposals
have not received final approval yet, so are still subject to change. But
I've been asked to post them to the listserve to reach a wider audience.
The bottom line is that the standard products from ACS will have a lot
more
tables on the characteristics of workers than have
been previously
produced
in either the ACS or in the decennial census. And for
the first time
ever,
there will be data tabulated by workplace geography in
a standard Census
Bureau data product. The handout does not cover all products from ACS,
just
two new types of products ("selected population
profiles" and "subject
tables") and a major revision to the detailed tables (to be called "base
tables" in the future). You should print out the various worksheets to
look
at them, since there is useful information in the
headers and footers
that
does not show up when you are just looking at the
sheet on the screen.
