Data in these files are based on information obtained in the Annual Survey of
Public-Employee Retirement Systems. Forms were mailed to the 220 state retirement
systems and 856 local retirement systems in the 2004 public-employee retirement sample.
Staff contacted nonrespondents through a follow up mailout and follow up telephone calls.
When systems returned their Comprehensive Annual Financial Report instead of completing
the form, staff compiled the data using their report. We used Comprehensive Annual Financial
Reports available on the Internet to compile data for nonrespondents. All respondents had
the option of returning their survey form or reporting their data on the Census Bureau Retirement
Web site. Approximately 25.2% of the state and local retirement systems chose to respond using
the Web site.
