摘要

The American Community Survey (ACS) is a new survey conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau. This survey uses a series of monthly samples to produce annually updated data for the same small areas (census tracts and block groups) as the decennial census long-form sample formerly surveyed. Initially, five years of samples are required to produce these small-area data. Once the Census Bureau has collected five years of data, new small-area data are produced annually. The Census Bureau will also produce three-year and single-year data products for larger geographic areas. Like the decennial census, the ACS will include people living in both housing units (HUs) and group quarters (GQ) facilities. This document describes the basic design of the ACS and details the full set of methods and procedures that are currently in place. The ACS is conducted in the United States and in Puerto Rico. In Puerto Rico the survey is called the Puerto Rico Community Survey (PRCS). For ease of discussion, throughout this document the term ACS is used to represent both the survey that is conducted in the United States and in Puerto Rico. The purpose of this paper is to provide data users and other interested individuals with documentation of the final methods planned for the ACS. Future updates of this paper will reflect revisions to existing methods, descriptions of new methods, and details on multi-year estimation. Citations are provided that cover critical background documentation for those with an interest in greater detail.
