| | | | Summary: | The American Community Survey (ACS) is a nationwide survey
designed to provide communities a fresh look at how they are changing.
It will replace the decennial long form in future censuses and is a
critical element in the Bureau of the Census reengineered 2010
census. The American Community Survey is conducted under the authority
of Title 13, United States Code, Sections 141 and 193, and response is
mandatory. The scope of the 1997 ACS was limited to housing units,
occupied and vacant, in nine sites: (1) Rockland County, New York, (2)
Fulton County, Pennsylvania, (3) Multnomah County and the city of
Portland, Oregon, (4) Douglas County, Nebraska, (5) Franklin County,
Ohio, (6) Harris and Fort Bend Counties (Houston), Texas, (7) Otero
County, New Mexico, (8) Broward County, Florida, and (9) Richland and
Kershaw Counties, South Carolina. Data from Pennsylvania and New
Mexico were not released. |
