RE: [CTPP] October 3 is the next scheduled release of ACStables including WORKPLACE GEOGRAPHY

Two items regarding the Oct 3 release: 1. The population threshold for table release in 2005 ACS is "65,000 population." The Census Bureau made a decision that for the tables FOR WORKPLACE GEOGRAPHY, they would use the same geographic units based on RESIDENCE geography that met the 65,000 population threshold. That is, for example if County A had a population of 70,000 residents, they would include a WORKPLACE GEOGRAPHY table for County A, without setting a threshold for count of workers. 2. What geographic detail will be included in the WORKPLACE GEOGRAPHY tables. My earlier email had an error (which Chuck Purvis' email corrected). So, please note that PLACE level tabulations "FOR WORKPLACE GEOGRAPHY" WILL be included, not just STATE and COUNTY. The table titles will say "FOR WORKPLACE GEOGRAPHY". Try not to get too confused! B08008 shows RESIDENCE geography (table released August 29) by "Place of Work". Elaine Murakami FHWA Office of Planning
