Census basics Why take a census?
– Apportion the House of Representatives– Determine political districts– Disburse funds for programs (more than
$400 billion in federal funds every year)– Develop a portrait of our nation
The 2010 Census:– Goal: Count everyone once, only once,
and in the right place– Questionnaire: Among the shortest in
history (10 questions for the first person, 7 for all others)

Census Terminology: IdentityRaceRace is a self-identification data item in which respondents choose the race or races with which they most closely identify.
Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish originOrigin can be viewed as the heritage, nationality group, lineage, or country of birth of the person or the person's parents or ancestors before their arrival in the United States. People who identify their origin as Spanish, Hispanic, or Latino may be of any race.

Sources of demographic data Decennial censuses Population estimates and
projections Survey data Administrative data and other sources
28
Population estimates and projections Estimates are historical population
figures Projections are future population figures Produced by the US Census Bureau and
the California Department of Finance Estimates are based on decennial
census counts updated with recent administrative data
Projections are based on assumptions about future fertility, mortality, and migration rates

32
Two primary surveys of the U.S. population
Both surveys conducted by the Census Bureau
Current Population Survey– Monthly survey– Focus on labor market
American Community Survey (ACS)
33
What is the ACS? Monthly survey conducted by the Census Bureau
Annually samples about 3 million households
Items covered are similar to those of the long-form questionnaire of the 2000 decennial census
Replaces the 2010 long-form of the census
Topics Covered Demographic characteristics Income and employment Transportation Education Origins and languages Migration Disability and caregivers Housing: Physical characteristics Housing: Financial characteristics
Advantages of the ACS Large sample relative to the Current Population Survey
– 3 million versus 60,000 households Timely data relative to the decennial census Topical coverage nearly identical to the census long-form Single year data not reliable for small areas
Limitations of the ACS Not a count of the population Small sample relative to the decennial census
– Census long-form went to one in six households– ACS goes to one in forty
A moving average rather than a point in time Estimates for census tracts and block groups will be based on five year periods
Sources of demographic data Decennial censuses Official population estimates and
projections Survey data Administrative data and other
sources

Administrative and other sources of demographic and housing data California Statewide Database (UC
Berkeley)– Voter registration– Election outcomes
California Department of Education– School demographics– School test scores
California Employment Development Department– Unemployment rates– Occupations
Private sources 40
