Right Shawn. The new PUMAs will be first used in vintage 2012 products. The 2007-11 PUMS microdata database will *not* be republished with recoded, new PUMAs. However, you will see 80% of those microdata records again -- right? The records collected since 2008 will be in the PUMS 2008-12 microdata. (So I don't know why you'd want PUMS with both old and new PUMAs... but it's maybe possible to jerry-rig dual coding for the four overlapping years.) ______________________ Todd Graham | Principal Forecaster Metropolitan Council | 390 North Robert Street | Saint Paul, MN 55101 tel: 1+651-602-1322 | fax: 1+651-602-1674 | e: todd.graham(a)metc.state.mn.us in: www.linkedin.com/in/toddgraham Visit www.metrocouncil.org/data for the latest in regional information. ______________________ ________________________________________ From: ctpp-news-bounces(a)chrispy.net on behalf of Shawn Kimberly [skimberly(a)baltometro.org] Sent: Friday, May 17, 2013 7:50 AM To: ctpp-news(a)chrispy.net Subject: Re: [CTPP] 5 Year ACS 06-10 and PUMA To reply to the first part of the question, it appears that PUMA level data for the ACS 5-year estimates will continue to use Census 2000 boundaries until the 2008-2012 release. http://www.census.gov/acs/www/data_documentation/geography/ Check under the “Statistical Areas” Tab.

Could somebody reconfirm If 5 year ACS 06-10 is still uses 2000 PUMA boundary/code-number? If yes, then I am curious to know if is there is any plan to sink these data into the new 2010 based PUMA/code.
