[CTPP] Demographic Profile release schedule

TO: CTPP-News 1) The tentative release schedule for the one-page "Demographic Profile" reports are posted on the Census Bureau's web site at: http://www.census.gov/Press-Release/www/2001/demoprofile.html A couple of dozen states and the US totals will be released this week (5/14-5/18). The Bureau will be trying to get all of these DP-1 files out by the end of May. The one-page "DP-1" will include 96 selected "short-form" variables for the US, States, Counties, Places and (eventually) census tracts. This is the first detailed glimpse at population by age and sex, number of households & families, group quarters population, housing unit characteristics (vacancy status, owner/renter tenure), and detailed hispanic/latino and asian characteristics. Technical documentation is available at the above URL. The DP-1 will also be available through American FactFinder. 2) A very nice Census 2000 Brief "The Hispanic Population" was released by the Bureau last week. You'll need acrobat reader and a color printer for this 8-page report.
