Revised Date
46 Subject Table S2101 and Base Table B21002 for years prior to 2007, period of military service

Due to an editing error, veteran's period of service (VPS) was being incorrectly assigned for some individuals. The majority of the errors misclassified some people who reported only serving during the Vietnam Era as having served in the category "Gulf War and Vietnam Era." The remainder of the errors misclassified some people who reported only serving between the Vietnam Era and Gulf War as having served in the category "Gulf War." These errors have been resolved for the 2007 tabulations.

45 Hanford CA and San Francisco-Oakland CA Urban Areas

During the processing of data products for the urban areas we discovered the geographic boundaries were incorrect for two of these areas, Hanford CA (code 36703) and San Francisco-Oakland CA (code 78904). Therefore, we are unable to release data products for these urban areas at this time. We are correcting the geographic boundaries in our data files now, and will release the data products as soon as possible.

44 ACS 2007 data tables removed or altered for Gainesville city, FL and Clearfield county, PA

There was an unusually large amount of missing data for the group quarters populations in Gainesville city, FL and Clearfield county, PA.  The large amount of missing data coupled with the current edit and imputation procedures resulted in incorrect estimates for residence 1 year ago, earnings, and income for both the group quarters population and the total population.  This spreadsheet file (XLS) contains the full list of tables, table lines, and geographic areas that will not be released due to this problem.

August 26, 2008
43 Phrasing Change to Two Categories in C02003 and B02003

There was an error in the phrasing for two categories in Table C02003 for the 2005 ACS and the 2006 ACS, and Table B02003 for the 2004 ACS. The data were not affected. The category "Two or more races including Some other race" was revised to read "Two races including Some other race." The category "Two or more races excluding Some other race" was revised to read "Two races excluding Some other race, and three or more races." Please note that the tables prior to 2006 will not be corrected.

42 ACS 2006 -- Summary File - Correction to Sequence 0139

The ACS Summary File was re-run and re-released because it was discovered that C06010PR was missing from the summary file and the accompanying documentation. In general all Puerto Rico based tables have a non-Puerto Rico counterpart with the exception of C06010PR, which resulted in the missing table. Table C06010PR was placed in sequence 0139, which breaks the ACS summary file rule of forcing collapsed tables to be in the same sequence as the base table (B06010PR is in 0140). The reason that this was done is that there wasn't enough space in sequence 0140 to include C06010PR and still maintain our cell width limit, so we placed it in the nearest logical sequence that fits all of our other rules so as to minimize the total affect on the files that have already been published.

41 ACS 2000-2006 -- PUMS variable SMOCP

Mobile home costs were omitted in the calculation of selected monthly owner costs (SMOCP) for mobile home owners. In 2003 through 2006 these mobile home costs included costs for personal property taxes, site rent, registration fees, and license fees; in addition to these costs, in 2000 through 2002, these mobile home costs also included installment loan payments. Therefore, the omission of mobile home costs from selected monthly owner costs in 2000, 2001, and 2002 resulted in a larger understatement of selected monthly owner costs for mobile home owners than the omission caused in 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2006. The user can calculate the selected monthly owner costs for mobile home owners by adding the variable MHP (mobile home costs) to SMOCP (selected monthly owner costs) for all cases on which BLD = '01' (mobile homes) to arrive at the selected monthly owner costs for mobile home owners.

40 ACS 2005 and 2006 - PUMS variable PAOC and Detailed Table B23003 on American Fact Finder (AFF): Update to Errata 39

The variable PAOC was designed to indicate for women 16 years and over, the presence of an own child in the household (a son or daughter under age 18 and never married). An error was found in the programming of this variable that resulted in the inconsistent identification of women in subfamilies having a child, producing an underestimate of the numbers of women with own children usually in the 1 percent to 2 percent range for each of the states.

This problem affected the PUMS file and several estimates in Detailed Table B23003. As a result, the PUMS files for 2005 and 2006 will be re-issued with the corrected PAOC variable, and the B23003 tables for 2005 and 2006 have been removed from the AFF along with necessary changes to ACS Summary File: http://www.census.gov/acs/www/UseData/sf/acs_summary_file.htm. These tables will not be re-issued, but the programming will be corrected for future releases. Please note that the PUMS files and data products for the years prior to 2005 will not be corrected.

PAOC is also a small part of the editing procedure used to create the employment status recode (ESR). A review concluded that this error affected ESR and some other variables

April 2, 2008
39 ACS 2006 - PUMS variable PAOC

The variable PAOC was designed to indicate for women 16 years and over, the presence of an own child in the household (a son or daughter under age 18 and never married). An error was found in the programming of this variable that resulted in the inconsistent identification of women in subfamilies having a child, producing an underestimate of the numbers of women with own children.

This problem affects PUMS and may possibly affect other data products. It is currently under review and any updates will be posted as soon as they are available.

February 11, 2008
38 ACS 2006 - Subject tables: S0102, S0103, S0102PR, and S0103PR

Errors were discovered with the median age estimate in four subject tables. However, each of the corrected estimates is within the 90% margin of error of the original estimate. These four subject tables have been corrected and updated data are available on American FactFinder (AFF.)

December 13, 2007
37 ACS 2006 - Selected Population Profile: S0201PR - Update to Errata 35

The 17 iterated Selected Population Profiles (SPP) in Puerto Rico that were missing on American Factfinder (AFF) are now available.

Also, the error discovered with the medians in the SPPs for 9 new iteration groups has been corrected and updated data are available on AFF.

October 15, 2007
36 ACS 2006 - Selected Population Profile: S0201PR

We discovered that 17 iterated Selected Population Profiles (SPP) in Puerto Rico are currently missing on American Factfinder (AFF). However, these tables are available on the ftp site. These tables will be available on AFF very soon.

Also, an error has been discovered with the medians in the SPPs for 9 new iteration groups. This error will be corrected and updated on AFF very soon.

October 4, 2007
35 ACS 2006 - Subject Table: S0506 Selected Characteristics of the Foreign-born Population by Region of Birth: Latin America

We discovered an error in the calculation of the median age in the column of this table for 'Other Central Americans'. Currently, an "X" is displayed in this cell of the table. The S0506 table with the correct value for this cell will appear in the third ACS2006 data release on September 27, 2007.

September 12, 2007
34 Errata note on 2004 and 2005 S2406 table in American FactFinder (AFF)

For the 2004 and 2005 ACS, the percent of "Self-employed in own not incorporated business workers and unpaid family workers" in "Sales and office occupations" was incorrectly calculated in Table S2406, resulting in an underestimation of this percentage. No other data products were affected by this error. This error has been corrected for future releases of the ACS data files.

To calculate this percentage in the 2004 and 2005 Table S2406, divide the number of persons who are in "Sales and office occupations" within the "Self-employed in own not incorporated business workers and unpaid family workers" category as shown in Detailed Table B24060 by the total number of persons in the "Sales and office occupations" category as shown in Detailed Table B24060, then multiply that number by 100.

For guidance in calculating the standard error around this percentage, see page 19 of the ACS Accuracy of the Data (2006) document at this location: http://www.census.gov/acs/www/Downloads/ACS/accuracy2006.pdf

August 28, 2007
33 ACS 2004 and 2005 Median Family Income Data - Update to Errata 26

Some of our data products for 2004 and 2005 contained an error which caused median family income's to be understated when they are over $90,000. The 2004 data will not be corrected. The data for 2005 has been corrected and is now available on AFF and on the ftp site. No states were affected by this error; but a small number of counties, townships, cities, and other sub-state geographic entities across the U.S. were affected.

June 18, 2007
32 Tables B25111 and B25113 replaced from the American FactFinder

Some of the median gross rent estimates shown in tables B25111 and B25113 were incorrectly calculated. For these two tables, the error caused the median gross rent estimates in high rent areas to be understated. These tables have been replaced on the American FactFinder with the corrected median estimates and associated standard errors. No other data products were affected.

May 3, 2007
31 ACS 2005 data tables removed or altered for Cumberland and Penobscot counties

This note is related to errata note 30. After further investigation, we have determined the same problem in the collection of the 2005 travel time to work data affected travel time estimates for Cumberland County, New Jersey and Penobscot County, Maine. No other characteristics appear to have been affected. The data tables containing travel time estimates for Cumberland County, New Jersey and Penobscot County, Maine have been removed or altered on the American FactFinder. For each table, an explanatory note is provided for the users. The spreadsheet file referenced in Note 30 below contains the list of all affected tables along with a description of the action taken for each table. For further information, please contact the Journey-to-Work and Migration Statistics Branch at 301-763-2454.

March 29, 2007
30 ACS 2005 data tables removed or altered for Coweta County, Georgia

We have discovered a problem in the collection of the 2005 travel time to work data for Coweta County, Georgia. No other characteristics appear to have been affected. The data tables containing travel time estimates for Coweta County have been removed or altered on the American FactFinder. For each table, an explanatory note is provided for the users. The spreadsheet file contains the list of all affected tables along with a description of the action taken for each table.

This problem is currently under review and users will be notified as soon as corrected data are available.

29 Description of the Effects of Corrections to an Error in the ACS 2005 Data Edits

A minor error was recently discovered in the 2005 ACS sample data. The error affected the data for only 13 sample housing units and 25 sample persons. These 13 sample housing units are in 13 different states (none are in Puerto Rico).

Due to the nature of the data products tabulations, many tables from the August 29 ACS income and poverty release were affected. However, each of the corrected estimates is within the margin of error of the original estimate. Furthermore, almost all of the corrected estimates represent less than a 1% change from the original estimate. The data products from the August 29 data release that are affected will be re-issued on October 19. All data products included in the October 3rd data release have been corrected in time for that release. There was no effect on the data products released on Aug. 15. And the data products to be released on Nov. 14 (the final ACS data release for this year) are being corrected and verified now. These changes will affect 101 detailed tables (and certain other data products derived from these tables) across 145 geographic entities, about 2% of the roughly 7,000 geographic areas for which the 2005 ACS data products are published. However, many of these geographic areas will have changes in only a few data tables. The spreadsheet file of release 2 corrections contains detailed information on the geographic areas and the data tables affected by this error.

October 3, 2006
28 Subject Table Note Error on American FactFinder (AFF)

The conditional notes for the following subject tables are incorrect: S0102, S0102PR, S0103, S0103PR, S0502, S0502PR, S0503, S0504, S0602, S0803, S0803PR, S0901, S0902, S1001, S1703.

The note: "Table is not available for the selected geography if the population for the selected subject falls below a threshold of 65,000.," for S0102,S0103, S0502, S0503, S0504, S0602, S0803, S0901, S0902, S1001, and S1703 should read:

Table is not available for the selected geography if the population for the selected subject falls below a threshold of 1,000,000. Additionally, the population within a geographic area for the selected subject must meet a threshold of 65,000.

The note: "Table is not available for a selected Puerto Rico geography if the population for the selected subject falls below a threshold of 65,000." for S0102PR,S0103PR, S0502PR, and S0803PR should read:

Table is not available for a selected Puerto Rico geography if the population for the selected subject falls below a threshold of 1,000,000. Additionally, the population within a geographic area for the selected subject must meet a threshold of 65,000.

27 Replicate Weights on the 2005 Public Use Microdata Sample Files

The variables WGTP1...WGTP80 and PWGTP1....PWGTP80 were inadvertently left off of the August 29, 2006 release of the data files and the data dictionary. Replicate weights are being provided with the 2005 PUMS for the first time. Please reference the PUMS Accuracy of the Data (2005) http://www.census.gov/acs/www/Downloads/2005/AccuracyPUMS.pdf for more information on replicate weights. The corrected files were released on September 11, 2006.

26 Errata Note on median family income for August 29th Data Release

Some of our data products for 2005 contain an error that causes median family incomes to be understated when they are over $90,000. We are correcting this problem now, and we will let you know when the corrected data are available on AFF and on the ftp site. No states were affected by this error; but, a small number of counties, townships, cities, and other substate geographic entities across the U.S. were affected.

25 DRIVESP (used in computing "Workers per car, truck, or van")

"Workers per car, truck, or van" is the derived measure used to indicate carpooling or vehicle efficiency. It is calculated by dividing the total number of workers who reported using a "car, truck, or van" by the number of "Total vehicles used." The values of number of vehicles for individual workers (DRIVESP) are derived from the JWRIP (ridership variable) as follows:

IF JWRIP = 1 (Drove alone) THEN DRIVESP = 1.000 vehicles;
ELSE IF JWRIP = 2 (In a 2-person carpool) then DRIVESP = 0.500 vehicles;
ELSE IF JWRIP = 3 (In a 3-person carpool) THEN DRIVESP = 0.333 vehicles;
ELSE IF JWRIP = 4 (In a 4-person carpool) THEN DRIVESP = 0.250 vehicles;
ELSE IF JWRIP = 5 or 6 (In a 5- or 6- person carpool) THEN DRIVESP = 0.200 vehicles;
ELSE IF JWRIP = 7 - 10 (In a 7-or-more person carpool) THEN DRIVESP = 0.143 vehicles;
ELSE DRIVESP = blank (nonworker or worker who does not drive to work).

The sum of DRIVESP is the estimated number of "Total vehicles used" by those workers who used a "car, truck, or van." Thus, "workers per car, truck or van" is the sum of all workers who reported using a "car, truck, or van" (JWTR = 1) divided by the sum of DRIVESP for all such workers.

23 Statistical Area Definitions (Data Profiles, Selected Population Profiles, Detailed Tables, Subject Tables, and Geographic Comparison Tables)

Current residence, residence 1 year ago (migration), and place of work tabulations use the November 2004 Statistical Area Definitions for Metropolitan Statistical Areas, Metropolitan Divisions and Principal Cities, Micropolitan Statistical Areas, Combined Statistical Areas, New England City and Town Areas (NECTA), Combined NECTAs, and NECTA Divisions and Principal Cities. For more information on Statistical Area Definitions, see http://www.census.gov/population/www/estimates/metrodef.html.

22 Detailed Tables B084xx and B085xx series and Subject Table S0804 ("Workplace Geography" tables )

These tabulations are produced to provide estimates of workers at the location of their workplace. Estimates of counts of workers at the workplace may differ from those of other programs because of variations in definitions, coverage, methods of collection, reference periods, and estimation procedures. The ACS is a household survey that provides data pertaining to individuals, families, and households.

These workplace-based tabulations are only available for States; Counties; Places; County Subdivisions in selected states (CT, ME, MA, MI, MN, NH, NJ, NY, PA, RI, VT, and WI); Combined Statistical Areas; Metropolitan and Micropolitan Statistical Areas, and their associated Metropolitan Divisions and Principal Cities; Combined New England City and Town Areas; New England City and Town Areas, and their associated Divisions and Principal Cities.

21 ACS educational attainment variable SCHL of Data Dictionary for Survey Year 1999-2004 Public Use Microdata Sample Files

The data dictionary shows incorrect category labels for the educational attainment variable (SCHL). The educational attainment question changed on the 1999 ACS questionnaire, which changed the response categories and eliminated the choice of "Vocational, technical, or business school degree." The PUMS data dictionary incorrectly shows labels for categories 10 and 11 as "Some college, but no degree" and "Vo/Tech/Bus school degree," respectively. The correct data dictionary labels for categories 10 and 11 are "Some college, but less than 1 year" and "1 or more years of college, no degree," respectively.

May 18, 2006
20 Base Table B16009 "Poverty Status in the Past 12 Months by Age by Language Spoken at Home for the Population 5 Years and Over," 2004 American Community Survey

There was an error in the designation of the categories "Income in the past 12 months below poverty level" and "Income in the past 12 months at or above poverty level." Data for the category "below poverty" were shown for the category "at or above poverty" and vice versa. The corrected table was released on February 23, 2006.

March 6, 2006
19 Subject Table S2201 for the 2004 American Community Survey, "Food Stamps".

There was a calculation error in the data for the category "With children under 18 years," in Subject Table S2201. Because of the error, the incorrect percent was shown for this category. The table has been corrected as of February 23, 2006 and only the corrected version is now available.

Feb 22, 2006
18 Subject Table S2303 for the 2004 American Community Survey, mean and median earnings for full-time, year-round workers 16 years and over with earnings.

There was a calculation error in the data for the median and mean earnings categories for full-time, year-round workers 16 years and over with earnings, in Subject Table S2303. Because of the error, these categories displayed earnings data for all workers 16 years and over with earnings, rather than for the intended subset of workers who worked full time, year round. The table will be corrected on February 23, 2006.

Feb 16, 2006
17 Subject Table S2302 for the 2004 American Community Survey, "Employment Characteristics of Families".

There was a calculation error in the data for the categories "Both husband and wife in labor force," and "Husband in labor force, wife not in labor force," in Subject Table S2302. Because of the error, data for households in which the husband was unemployed were excluded from the calculations for each of these categories. The table will be corrected on February 23, 2006.

Feb 16, 2006
16 Imputation of citizenship status shown in data files, including American Community Survey (ACS) detailed table P131 for 2000-2003, B99051 for 2004, and ACS PUMS files 2000-2004.

There is an error in the way the imputation flag for citizenship was set. This error led to an understatement of the number of people for whom citizenship was imputed. People who had their place of birth (i.e., country of birth) imputed as the United States, Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, or the Northern Marianas should also have had their citizenship flag set to imputed. However, this did not occur. This error will be corrected in future releases of the ACS data files.

14 Removal of "Other Pacific Islander" data line in the 2004 single year and multi-year profile.

The "Other Pacific Islander" estimate in the 2004 single year and multi-year profiles has been removed from the American Factfinder website. Once revisions are complete, this estimate will be available again on American Factfinder.

Summer 2005
13 Removal of PCT004 and PCT005

Due to an error, American Community Survey core tables PCT004 and PCT005 were not restricted to the correct population subgroup for the years 2000, 2001, 2002, and 2003. Therefore, these core tables have been removed from the American Factfinder website. Once revisions are complete, these tables will be available again on American Factfinder.

12 Modification Made in 2003 Weighting Method

To ensure high quality data, we continuously review the estimates produced by the American Community Survey. Whenever anomalies are discovered, we investigate to learn and find out its causes and make methodological changes, as appropriate, to improve the ACS estimates. These changes in methodology may result in large differences in ACS estimates for a small number of geographic areas. Since ACS weighting is controlled at the county level, small changes in methodology are more likely to affect sub-county estimates. For example, a modification in the weighting methodology to improve sub-county estimates resulted in an unexpected large drop in the estimates of housing units for Anaheim, California. This modification was implemented in 2003. The large drop in the housing unit estimate occurred in 2003 from levels estimated in 2001 and 2002.

Implemented in 2003
11 Average family size, average household size of owner-occupied unit, and average household size of renter-occupied unit in the 2000 to 2001 Supplementary Survey Margin of Error

We discovered a calculation error that caused a gross underestimation of Average Family Size, Average Household Size of Owner-occupied Unit, and Average Household Size of Renter-occupied Unit in the 2000 to 2001 Supplementary Survey Margin of Error. This error only occurred in the following geographic areas:

  • Houston City, Harris County pt., Texas
  • Harris County, Texas
  • Franklin County, Ohio
  • Broward County, Florida
  • Bronx County, New York

The profiles have been corrected as of December 3, 2002 and only the corrected versions of these profiles are available.

Dec 3, 2002
10 Median Family Income in the 2000 to 2001 Margin of Error

We discovered a calculation error which caused a gross underestimation of Median Family Income in the 2000 to 2001 Margin of Error. This error only occurred in the Primary Metropolitan Statistical Areas (PMSA). The profiles have been corrected as of November 13, 2002 and only the corrected versions of these profiles are available.

Nov 13, 2002
9 Revised Estimates for Census 2000 Supplementary Survey

The American Community Survey is continuously introducing methodological improvements to maximize the quality of the estimates. Based on results from the survey evaluation program we continue to make changes and improve the estimation methodology. The difference in the estimates from previous releases is a result of revised edits, and reweighting the data using an improved estimation methodology.

The 109 core tables have been corrected as of November 7, 2002 and only the corrected versions of these tables are available.  Over the next few months, the noncore tables will be updated as well, but until then there may be inconsistencies within the Census 2000 Supplementary Survey data.

Users may find inconsistencies in estimates for areas which are in the American Community Survey as well as in the Supplementary Surveys. The 2000 American Community Survey estimates are currently being revised and will be replaced shortly.

Nov 7, 2002
8 Household and Family Tables

The household and family tables were tabulated using the housing unit weight instead of the person weight of the householder used in the previous release. As a result of this change, the number of households will equal the number of occupied housing units but will not equal the number of householders, as it was the case in the previous release. This change results in more consistent data. This change affects 31 summary tables, the tabular and narrative profiles, and the Median Household Income rank table.

Nov 7, 2002
7 Year Structure Built

In the previous release of table H031 and the Profile of Selected Housing Characteristics the label designations for the two most recent year-built categories were specified incorrectly. The correct label specifications are "1999 or later" and "1995 to 1998" rather than "2000 or later" and "1995 to 1999".

May 2, 2002
6 Median Rooms

This current release of Median Room data has changed from the previous release, and table H021 and profile table 4, Profile of Selected Housing Characteristics, have been corrected as of March 25, 2002. Only the corrected versions of these tables are available.

In computing median rooms, the whole number is used as the midpoint of the interval; thus the category "3 rooms" is treated as an interval ranging from 2.5-3.5 rooms. Linear interpolation is used to estimate median rooms between the lower and upper bounds of a specified interval. Median rooms is rounded to the nearest tenth.

In the previous release of the American Community Survey data, the midpoint, rather than the lower value of the interval, was incorrectly used as the starting value for the derivation of median rooms. For the category "3 rooms," we previously used the interval 3.0-4.0 rooms.

May 2, 2002
5 Household and Family Tables

The American Community Survey household and family tables were reweighted using the person weight of the householder instead of the housing unit weight used in the previous release. Because of this change, the number of households will equal the number of householders, which was not previously the case. This change affects 31 summary tables, the tabular and narrative profiles, and the Median Household Income rank table.

May 2, 2002
4 The Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing and Hunting Sector

This current release of Industry and Occupation data has changed from the previous release, and tables P066, P067 and P068, as well as profile table 3, Profile of Selected Economic Characteristics, and the narrative profiles, have been corrected as of March 25, 2002. Only the corrected versions of these tables are available. The American Community Survey Industry data follow the guidelines issued in Clarification Memorandum No. 2, "NAICS Alternate Aggregation Structure for Use by U.S. Statistical Agencies," issued by the Office of Management and Budget.

May 2, 2002
3 Narrative Profiles released in August 2001

Narrative Profiles released in August 2001 contained an error. In the first section (POPULATION), the sentence beginning "For people reporting one race..." had percentages with the total population as the denominator. The profiles released in November 2001 have recomputed percentages with the population reporting one race as the denominator. The race and Hispanic origin percentages in the following sentences were correct.

November 20, 2001
2 The Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing and Hunting Sector

The Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing and Hunting Sector in the previous release did not comply with 1997 North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). This current release of Industry and Occupation data has changed from the previous release, and tables P066, P067 and P068 have been corrected as of November 20, 2001. Only the corrected versions of these tables are available. However, the industry data in the current release do not strictly adhere to the coding structure guidelines recently issued by the Office of Management and Budget. Future industry products will follow NAICS classification structure as designated in the May 15, 2001, NAICS Clarification Memorandum No. 2, "Alternate Aggregation Structure for Use by U.S. Statistical Agencies."
