Trend Data from ACS PUMS 2000 - 2013

Warren Brown
over 10 years ago
For an analysis of trends in the household population--specifically grandparents as caregivers for their grandchildren--are there cautions to be wary of when processing the ACS PUMS from 2000 through 2013? The obvious difference is one of sample size during the development period 2000 - 2004 and its effect on statistical reliability. Others to be concerned about?

Best,

    I want to correct something I said in my reply to Warren. There WILL be PUMS data for every state, but the sample design during the demonstration period allows only national and state-level estimates. Sorry about that mistake.
