Sources of demographic data Decennial censuses Population estimates and projections Survey data Administrative data and other sources 19

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) 20

Census Questions on Hispanic Origin and Race 24

Census Questions on Hispanic Origin and Race 25

Census Terminology: Identity Race Race is a self-identification data item in which respondents choose the race or races with which they most closely identify. Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish origin Origin 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..

Who gets a box? 27

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 29

Type of estimates data available 30

Recent estimates diverge 31 Total Population (in thousands) 1.5 million

Sources of demographic data Decennial censuses Official population estimates and projections Survey data Administrative data and other sources 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

Coverage in California is relatively good for counties

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 39

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
