*The Small Area Income and Poverty Estimates (SAIPE) program
exists to provide annual estimates of selected income and poverty statistics
for states, counties, and school districts which are controlled to the official
national poverty estimates from the Current Population Survey (CPS) Annual Social
and Economic Supplement (ASEC). The estimates are not direct counts from enumerations
or administrative records, nor direct estimates from sample surveys, but rather
modeled relations from a variety of sources. Estimating measures of uncertainty
is an integral part of the overall process. For more details see http://www.census.gov/did/www/saipe/methods/cautions.html
*The American Housing Survey
(AHS) collects data on the Nation's housing, including apartments, single-family
homes, mobile homes, vacant housing units, household characteristics, income,
housing and neighborhood quality, housing costs, equipment and fuels, size of
housing unit, and recent movers. National data are collected in odd numbered
years, and data for each of 47 selected Metropolitan Areas are collected currently
about every six years. In 2004, the Census Bureau collected information about
the New Orleans metropolitan area.
