Type of File
Microdata; unit of observation is individuals, families, and households.
Universe Description
The universe is the civilian noninstitutional population of the United
States living in housing units and members of the Armed Forces living in
civilian housing units on a military base or in a household not on a
military base. A probability sample is used in selecting housing units.
Subject-Matter Description
This file, also known as the Annual Demographic File, provides the usual
monthly labor force data, but in addition, provides supplemental data on
work experience, income, noncash benefits, and migration. Comprehensive
work experience information is given on the employment status, occupation,
and industry of persons 15+ years old and over. Additional data for
persons 15 years old and older are available concerning weeks worked
and hours per week worked, reason not working full time, total income and
income components, and residence on March 1, 1989. Data on employment and
income refer to the preceding year, although demographic data refer to the
time of the survey.
This file also contains data covering nine noncash income sources: food
stamps, school lunch program, employer-provided group health insurance
plan, employer-provided pension plan, personal health insurance, Medicaid,
Medicare, CHAMPUS or military health care, and energy assistance.
Characteristics such as age, sex, race, household relationship, and
Spanish origin are shown for each person in the household enumerated.
Geographic Coverage
State of residence is uniquely identified as well as census geographic
division and region. The 113 largest metropolitan statistical areas
(CMSAs or MSAs), an additional 89 selected MSAs, 66 selected PMSAs, and
30 central cities in multi-central city MSAs or PMSAs are also uniquely
identified.(1) Within confidentiality restrictions, indicators are
provided for MSA-PMSA/non-MSA-PMSA, central city/noncentral city, farm/
nonfarm, and MSA/CMSA size.

Related Machine-Readable Data Files
A public use edition of the Current Population Survey, March file is
available for each year since 1968. For 1980, 1984, and 1988 two March
files are available for each year. The first March 1980 file contains
estimates based on 1970 population counts and should be used for
historical comparisons ending in 1980. The reweighted March 1980 file
contains estimates based on results of the 1980 census and should be used
for comparisons between 1981 and 1984.
In 1984, the Bureau of the Census introduced a step into the March second
stage weighting procedure controlling individual weights to independent
estimates of the Hispanic population. Since this introduction caused a
major disruption in the Hispanic estimates from March two data files were
created. The first file, without the Hispanic controls should be used for
comparing estimates for years prior to 1984 and the second file should be
used for comparison with 1985 and forward files.
From March 1989 forward, data on the Annual Demographic File are processed
using the rewrite system. The rewrite system includes revised procedures
to match supplement records to basic CPS records; revised weighting
procedures; revised demographic and family edits; revised imputation
procedures; and more income detail on the file.
For March 1988 there are two files, the regular Annual Demographic File
and the Annual Demographic Rewrite File. The rewrite file has been
prepared to allow historical comparison of data from the rewrite
processing system implemented between 1988 and 1989. It is recommended
that the rewrite file be used when comparing data collected from the March
Annual Demographic Supplement from 1988 forward. Use the regular file,
released in 1988, when comparing data from 1988 and prior years.
This is not to say, however, that comparisons cannot be made between years
before and after 1988. When such analyses are done, for example between
1986 through 1989, data users must consider that similarities or
differences between the data may be caused or effected by the rewritten
system. Thus, comparing estimates from the 1988 rewrite files and the
1988 regular file will reveal the extent of any differences caused by the
processing system changes though not the specific change. The magnitude of
the difference can then be applied to the estimates from 1986-1987 to
reveal whether any real differences exist. There were several revisions
made to the processing programs; therefore, it is difficult to determine
which specific revision effected the differences or similarities in the
data.
Some non-March data also are available from 1968 to present. For more
information, request the Data Developments on the Current Population
Survey from Data User Services Division, Customer Services, Bureau of the
Census, Washington, DC 20233.

OVERVIEW
Introduction
The Current Population Survey (CPS) is the source of the official Government
statistics on employment and unemployment. The CPS has been conducted monthly
for over 40 years. Currently, we interview about 57,000 households monthly,
scientifically selected on the basis of area of residence to represent the
Nation as a whole, individual States, and other specified areas. Each
household is interviewed once a month for four consecutive months one year,
and again for the corresponding time period a year later. This technique
enables us to obtain month-to-month and year-to-year comparisons at a reason-
able cost while minimizing the inconvenience to any one household.
Although the main purpose of the survey is to collect information on the
employment situation, a very important secondary purpose is to collect
information on the demographic status of the population, information such as
age, sex, race, marital status, educational attainment, and family structure.
From time to time additional questions are included on such important
subjects as health, education, income, and previous work experience. The
statistics resulting from these questions serve to update similar information
collected once every 10 years through the decennial census, and are used by
Government policymakers and legislators as important indicators of our
Nation's economic situation and for planning and evaluating many Government
programs.
The CPS provides current estimates of the economic status and activities of
the population of the United States. Because it is not possible to develop
one or two overall figures (such as the number of unemployed) that would
adequately describe the whole complex of labor market phenomena, the CPS is
designed to provide a large amount of detailed and supplementary data. Such
data are made available to meet a wide variety of needs on the part of users
of labor market information.
Thus, the CPS is the only source of monthly estimates of total employment
(both farm and non-farm); nonfarm self-employed persons, domestics, and
unpaid workers in nonfarm family enterprises; wage and salary employees; and,
finally, estimates of total unemployment.
It provides the only available distribution of workers by the number of hours
worked (as distinguished from aggregate or average hours for an industry),
permitting separate analyses of part-time workers, workers on overtime, etc.
The survey is also the only comprehensive current source of information on
the occupation of workers and the industries in which they work. Information
is available from the survey not only for persons currently in the labor
force but also for those who are outside the labor force. The characteristics
of such persons - whether married women with or without young children,
disabled persons, students, older retired workers, etc., can be determined.
Information on their current desire for work, their past work experience, and
their intentions as to job seeking are also available.
The March CPS, also known as the Annual Demographic File, contains the basic
monthly demographic and labor force data described above, plus additional
data on work experience, income, noncash benefits, and migration.
CPS Sample
The CPS sample is based on the civilian noninstitutional population of the
United States. The sample is located in 729 sample areas comprising 1,973
counties and independent cities with coverage in every State and in the
District of Columbia.
In all, some 71,000 housing units or other living quarters are assigned for
interview each month; about 57,000 of them containing approximately 114,500
persons 15 years old and over are interviewed. Also included are demographic
data for approximately 33,500 children 0-14 years old and 650 Armed Forces
members living with civilians either on or off base within these households.
The remainder of the assigned housing units are found to be vacant, converted
to nonresidential use, contain persons with residence elsewhere, or are not
interviewed because the residents are not found at home after repeated calls,
are temporarily absent, or are unavailable for other reasons. Approximately
14,000 noninterview households are present each month. The resulting file
size is approximately 163,000 records. In March of each year supplemental
data are collected for Armed Forces members residing with their families in
civilian housing units or on a military base. The Armed Forces members,
however, are not asked the monthly labor force questions. In addition, the
March CPS is supplemented with a sample of Spanish households identified the
previous November. This results in the addition of about 2,500 households in
the March CPS. The inclusion of the additional sample of Spanish households
began in 1976.
A more precise explanation regarding the CPS sample design is provided in
Technical Paper 40, The Current Population Survey Design and Methodology.
For a more detailed discussion about the basic labor force data gathered on
a monthly basis in the CPS survey, see the Bureau of Labor Statistics
Report No. 463 and the Current Population Report P-23, No. 62, issued jointly
by the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Bureau of the Census in October,
1976, and entitled Concepts and Methods Used In Labor Statistics derived from
the Current Population Survey.
Revisions To The March CPS Processing System
Introduction. Between 1988 and 1989 a new computer processing system was
introduced for the March Current Population Survey. This processing system
rewrite was long overdue; the system in use before this year was first
introduced in March 1976 and was never fully updated to reflect the numerous
questionnaire changes that have taken place since that time. In addition, the
programs used to process the CPS file were written in a computer language
that is being phased out of use at the Census Bureau. While the March 1989
file is the first to reflect this new processing system, the March 1988 file
was reprocessed based on these new procedures in order to: 1) better evaluate
the new processing procedures, and 2) allow year-to-year comparisons to be
made between income years 1987 and 1988 using a consistent processing system.
While the following section deals mainly with modifications to the March
imputation procedures and their subsequent effect on income and poverty
rates, it should be pointed out that all of the processing programs were
rewritten in 1989, so that not only are the files from 1989 forward based on
a somewhat different imputation system, but also reflect a rewritten
weighting system, data acceptance program, family relationship edits, and new
procedures to match income supplement records to the monthly CPS file. As a
result, it is difficult to ascertain whether differences (especially those
based on relatively small bases) are the result of imputation or other
processing differences between the original and revised files.
Since the Census Bureau began imputing the missing income data on the CPS in
1962, there have been three major revisions to the processing system (in
1967,1976, and 1989). Through all of these revisions, the basic strategy used
in make imputations has remained the same. This approach, commonly referred
to as "hot deck" imputation, assigns missing responses to sample persons with
information from matched sample persons with similar demographic and economic
information who answered these questions.
Under the new March processing system, there were three main modifications to
the income imputation programs:
1. The edits and imputations were expanded to reflect the full detail of
the March income questionnaire. The original processing system was
still based on a less detailed CPS income questionnaire that has not
been in use since 1980.
2. Under the revised processing procedures, entire sets of March income
and noncash benefits data were imputed to supplement noninterviews
from the same interviewed person. Under the original processing
procedures, earnings, unearned income, and noncash benefits were
imputed in separate stages during the processing system. Thus, the
new processing system imputes noninterviews more efficiently and is
better able to preserve the correlation between earnings, unearned
income, and noncash benefits.
3. Both the old and new processing systems employ what are called
"statisticial matches" to link sample cases with reported data to
those requiring imputation for missing responses. In the original
processing system, under certain circumstances, reported data was
removed and replaced with imputed data during the statistical matching
process. Under the new system, reported data are never removed. This
was accomplished by expanding the number of statisticial matches
in the income imputation system.
File Structure
There is a household record for each household or group quarters. The
household record is followed by one of three possible structures:
A.If the household contains related persons and is not a group
quarters household:
1. The family record appears next followed by person records for
members of the family who are not also members of a related
subfamily. The person records would be ordered: family householder,
spouse of family householder, children in the family, and other
relatives of the family householder.
2. The above records may be followed by one or more related subfamily
records, each related subfamily record being followed immediately
by person records for members of that related subfamily. The person
records would be ordered: reference person of the related subfamily,
spouse of subfamily reference person, and children of subfamily
reference person.
3. The above records may be followed by one or more unrelated subfamily
records, each unrelated subfamily record being followed immediately
by person records for members of that unrelated subfamily. The
person records would be ordered: unrelated subfamily reference
person, spouse of subfamily reference person, and children of
subfamily-reference person.
4. The above records may be followed by one or more persons living
with nonrelatives family records, each to be followed by the person
record for the unrelated individual it represents. (See Figure 1,
page 2-4.)
B.If the household contains a householder with no relatives and is not a
group quarters household:
1. The family record for the nonfamily householder is followed
immediately by the person record for that nonfamily householder.
2. These records may be followed by one or more unrelated subfamily
records, each unrelated subfamily record being followed immediately
by the person records for members of that unrelated subfamily.
3. These records may be followed by one or more family records for
persons living with nonrelatives, each person living with
nonrelatives family record being followed immediately by the
person record for that person living with nonrelatives. (See Figure
2, page 2-5.)
C.If the household is a group quarters, each person is defined as a
person living with nonrelatives. There will be a family record followed
by a person record for each person in the group quarters.
Relationship of Current Population Survey Files to Publications
Each month, a significant amount of information about the labor force is
published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in the Employment and Earnings
and Monthly Labor Review Reports.
As mentioned previously, the CPS also serves as a vehicle for supplemental
inquiries on subjects other than employment which are periodically
added to the questionnaire. From the basic and supplemental data the Bureau
of the Census issues four series of publications under the general title
Current Population Reports:
P-20 Population Characteristics
P-23 Special Studies
P-27 Farm Population
P-60 Consumer Income
Of particular interest to users of the March microdata file would be those
reports based on information collected in March. These reports include the
following titles:
P-20 Population Profile of the United States: (Year)
P-20 Household and Family Characteristics: March (Year)
P-20 Households, Families, Marital Status, and Living Arrangements:
March (Year)
P-20 Geographical Mobility (Years)
P-20 Educational Attainment in the United States (Years)
P-20 Persons of Spanish Origin in the United States (Year)
P-60 Money Income and Poverty Status of Families and Persons in the
United States: (Year)
P-60 Characteristics of the Population Below the Poverty Level: (Year)
P-60 Characteristics of Households Receiving Selected Noncash Benefits:

Geographic Limitations
In July 1985, the CPS microdata files began carrying the metropolitan
statistical area definitions announced by the Office of Management and Budget
on June 30, 1984. The new CPS estimates for the total metropolitan population
have consistently been higher than independent estimates of the total
metropolitan population prepared by the Census Bureau; the new CPS
nonmetropolitan estimates have been lower than the independent estimates. The
magnitude of the monthly differences has varied from 900,000 to 2.5 million
persons over the past year, so that the proportion of the population living
in metropolitan areas according to the CPS has ranged from 0.4 to 1.0
percentage points higher than the independent estimate. The difference in
level between the two sets of estimates is partially attributable to the
basic CPS sample design, which, because of sampling variability, includes an
oversample of metropolitan households and an undersample of nonmetropolitan
households. The monthly variations result from the exit and entrance of
rotation groups, each with slightly different metropolitan-nonmetropolitan
proportions, into the sample. The apparent overestimation of metropolitan
and underestimation of nonmetropolitan population in the CPS relative to the
Census Bureau's independent estimates should be taken into account when using
the data. Because of the monthly variation in these estimates, month-to-month
comparisons of metropolitan and nonmetropolitan estimates should be
interpreted with caution.
One other set of estimates that can be produced from CPS microdata files
beginning in October 1985 should be treated with caution. These are estimates
for individual metropolitan areas. The change in Census Bureau confidential-
ity rules allowing identification of areas with populations of 100,000 or
more instead of 250,000 has produced a situation where we now identity
numerous small metropolitan areas on the CPS data files. Although estimates
for the larger areas such as New York, Los Angeles, and so forth, should be
fairly accurate and valid for a multitude of uses, estimates for the smaller
metropolitan areas (those with populations under 500,000) should be used with
caution because of the relatively large sampling variability associated with
these estimates.
It should be kept in mind that the sample design and methods of weighting
CPS data are geared towards producing estimates for the entire Nation.
Consequently, data for states are not as reliable as national data, and the
file will lose some of its utility in certain applications. For further
discussion of such considerations, the user should consult The Current
Population Survey: Design and Methodology (Technical Paper 40, U.S. Bureau of
the Census).
The nature of the work done by each individual investigator using the
microdata file will determine to what extent his/her requirements for
precision will allow using some of the smaller geographic areas identified
on the file.
Weights
For all CPS data files a single weight is prepared and used to compute the
monthly labor force status estimates. An additional weight was prepared for
the earnings universe which roughly corresponds to wage and salary workers in
the two outgoing rotations. This is explained below in the section on
earnings data. However, the difference in content of the March CPS supplement
requires the presentation of additional weights: a household weight, a family
weight, and a March supplement weight. In this section we briefly describe
the construction and use of these weights. Chapter 5 of Technical paper 40,
The Current Population Survey: Design and Methodology provides documentation
of the weighting procedures for the CPS both with and without supplement
questions.
The final weight, which is the product of several adjustments, is used to
produce population estimates for the various items covered in the regular
monthly CPS. This weight is constructed from the basic weight for each
person, which represents the probability of selection for the survey. The
basic weight is adjusted for special sampling situations and failure to
obtain interviews from eligible households (noninterview adjustment). A two-
stage ratio estimation procedure adjusts the sample population to the known
distribution of the entire population. This two-stage ratio estimation
process produces factors which are applied to the basic weight (after the
special weighting and noninterview adjustments are made) and results in the
final weight associated with each record. In summary, the final weight is the
product of: (I) the basic weight, (2) adjustments for special weighting,
(3) noninterview adjustment, (4) first stage ratio adjustment factor, and
(5) second stage ratio adjustment factor. This final weight should be used
when producing estimates from the basic CPS data.
Differences in the questionnaire, sample and data uses for the March CPS
supplement result in the need for additional adjustment procedures to
produce what is called the March supplement weight. The sample for the March
CPS supplement is expanded to include male members of the Armed Forces who
are living in civilian housing or with the family on a military base, as
well as additional Spanish households which are not included in the monthly
labor force estimates.
The expanded sample and the need to have a husband and wife receive the same
weight has resulted in a weighting system which produces the March supplement
weight. The March supplement weight should be used for producing estimates
from March supplement data.
Finally, household and family weights are the weights assigned from the
householder or reference person after all adjustments have been made and
should be used when tabulating estimates of families-households.
Earnings Data
Beginning in 1982, usual hourly and weekly earnings data appear on the Annual
Demographic File (ADF) for that portion of the population roughly correspond-
ing to wage and salary workers (self-employed persons in incorporated
businesses are excluded, although they are normally included with the wage
and salary population). These data are now collected on a monthly basis in
the two outgoing rotation groups as part of the basic CPS labor force
interview.
Since the intent of the regular collection of earnings data was to initiate
a family earnings data series, all persons in the two outgoing rotations
receive an "earnings weight," even if they are not eligible for the earnings
item. The earnings weight is a simple ratio-estimation to the person's labor
force status by age, race, and sex. When tabulating estimates of earnings
based on basic CPS data, use the earnings weight.
Further information on this earnings series is contained in Technical
Description of the Quaterly Data on Weekly Earnings from the Current
Population Survey, BLS Report #601, July 1980. This report is available on
request from the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics,
Washington, D.C. 20212. Attn: Office of Inquiries and Correspondence.
NOTE: For 1982 and 1983, usual weekly earnings are not present for
individuals who were not paid on an hourly basis.
MATCHING OF MARCH CPS FILES
General Information
There are two basic limitations in linking the March CPS files across years.
First, only fifty percent of the sample is included in two consecutive years.
Second, the residents within the eligible housing units may have changed or
appeared as noninterview records in one or both years. The result is a
matched sample of considerably less than the upper limit of fifty percent.
The basic procedures and variables used to link two or more March CPS files
are outlined below.
Sample Selection
The first step in matching year t with year t+1 is to select from year t
those housing units with a "month in sample" value of 1 through 4, and from
year t + 1 those units with a "month in sample" value of 5 through 8. This
will identity the sample subset eligible for matching. Within this subset,
housing units in year t, month 1 will match only with units in year t+ 1,
month 5, etc.
Matching Housing Units
Using one or more variables, it is possible to uniquely identify each housing
unit in each sample rotation. However, because of changes in CPS procedures,
the available information for matching housing units is not always identical.
Below are the variables available for matching March CPS files.
Years: 1968-1971
Variables: Random Cluster Code (F6- 10) and Serial Number (F11-14)
Years: 1971-1972
Changes in CPS clustering procedures and the accompanying change
of household identification numbers prevent matching 1971 and
1972 March CPS files.
Years: 1972-1973
The 1972 file uses 1960 random cluster codes while the 1973 file
uses 1970 random cluster codes, thus precluding the matching of
records.
Years: 1973-1975
Variables: Random Cluster Code (F7-11). Segment Number (F12-16), and Serial
Number (F217-218)
Years: 1975-1976
Variables: 1975: Random Cluster Code (F7-11) Segment Number (F12-16), and
Serial Number (F217-218)
1976: Random Cluster Code (H35-39), Segment Number (H40-43), and
Serial Number (H44-45)
Years: 1976-1977
Matching is not possible because variables required for matching
are in a different format each year.
Years: 1977-1985
Variable: Household Identification Number (H18-29)
Years: 1985-1986
Matching is not possible because the 1986 file is based entirely
on the 1980 census design sample.
Years: 1986 Forward
Variable: Household Identification Number (H18-29)
Matching Households, Families, and Persons
Although the information presented above allows matching of housing units
across years, it is possible that the residents of the housing unit have
changed. Consequently, it is necessary to perform additional matches to
insure resident comparability. The specific variables used to match residents
will vary according to the needs of the project but it is more efficient to
arrange the matching in a hierarchical sequence. For example, matching on
sex and race should precede matching on age or household relationship. The
user should carefully work through the possible changes in household
structure that might result in an inappropriate rejection of a household.
For example, a husband-wife family in year t that experienced a divorce and
became a female headed household in year t+ 1 would fail the test for
matching sex of head. Clearly, the more criteria used in matching records
will result in greater accuracy, but will also increase the expense and
result in fewer matches.
HOW TO USE THE DATA DICTIONARY
The Data Dictionary describes the contents and record layout of the public-

HHTYPE" or "HFIN-YN", or a sequential
identifier such as "MIG-MTR1" or "SUR-
SC1". Data item names are unique through-
out the entire file (all 3 record types).
Size. Numeric. The size of a data item is

decimal places is provided in notes.
Begin. Numeric. Contains the location in the
data record of the first character position of
the data item field.
Category Value. Numeric. Contains the
range of values for the given data item.
The first line of each data item description begins with the character "D"
(left-justified, two characters). The "D" flag indicates lines in the data
dictionary containing the name, size, and begin position of each data item.
This information (in machine-readable form) can be used to help access
the data file. The line beginning with the character "U" describes the
universe for that item. Lines containing categorical value codes and labels
follow next and begin with the character "V". The special character (.)
denotes the start of the value labels. Two examples of data item descriptions
follow:

How to Distinguish Supplement Variables from Monthly Variables
Monthly variables have a prefix and trailer as follows:
1. H-, HG-, or H% for household record variables.
2. A-, A% for person record variables.
3. The family record contains no monthly variables.
Supplement variables are all one string or they have a suffix. For example
HFIN-YN is a supplement variable on the household record.

GLOSSARY
Geographic Concepts
Geographic Division. An area composed of contiguous States, with Alaska and
Hawaii also included in one of the divisions. (A State is one of the 51 major
political units in the United States.) The nine geographic divisions have
been largely unchanged for the presentation of summary statistics since the
1910 census.
Regions. There are four regions: Northeast, Midwest (formerly North Central),
West, and South. States and divisions within regions are presented below.

Subject Concepts
A-E
Age. Age classification is based on the age of the person at his/her last
birthday. The adult universe (i.e., population of marriageable age) is
comprised of persons 15 years old and over for March supplement data and for
CPS labor force data.
Annuities. (See Income.)
Armed Forces. Armed Forces members enumerated in off-base housing or on base
with their families are included on the CPS data file in March. In addition
to demographic and family data, only supplemental data on income are
included for Air Forces members.
Base Weight. The constant weight assigned to the sample (inverse of the
sampling fraction) which is adjusted to produce the final weight.
Civilian Labor Force. (See Labor Force.)
Class of Worker. This refers to the broad classification of the person's
employer. On the March file, these broad classifications for current jobs are
private, government, self-employed, without pay, and never worked. Private
and government workers are considered "wage and salary workers;" this
classification scheme includes self-employed, incorporated persons in with
"private" workers. For the longest job held last year, this class of worker
scheme includes private; government by level/Federal, State, and local; self-
employed incorporated, self-employed unincorporated or farm; and without pay.
The wage and salary category for longest job held includes private,
government (all levels), and self-employed incorporated.
Dividends. (See Income.)
Duration of Unemployment. Duration of unemployment represents the length of
time (through the current survey week) during which persons classified as
unemployed are continuously looking for work. For persons on layoff, duration
of unemployment represents the number of full weeks since the termination of
their most recent employment. A period of two weeks or more during which a
person is employed or ceased looking for work is considered to break the
continuity of the present period of seeking work. Average duration is an
arithmetic mean computed from a distribution by single weeks of unemployment.
Earners, Number of. The file includes all persons 15 years old and over in
the household with $1 or more in wages and salaries, or $1 or more of a
loss in net income from farm or nonfarm self- employment during the preceding
year.
Earnings Weight. Each person record in month-in-sample 4 and 8 contains an
earnings weight for current earnings.
Education. (See Years of School Completed.)
Employed. (See Labor Force.)
Energy Assistance Program. The Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program
provides financial assistance to qualified households to help them pay
heating costs. The program is funded by the Federal government and
administered by the States under broad guidelines. In some States a household
may automatically be eligible for this program if the household receives
(1) Aid to Families with Dependent Children, (2) Food Stamps,
(3) Supplemental Security Income (SS1), and (4) certain Veterans' benefits.
The energy assistance questions were asked for the first time in 1982.
Questions asked in the March 1989 survey included (1) recipient since
October 1,1988, and (2) total amount received during the reference period.
ESR (Employment Status Recode). This classification is available for each
civilian 15 years old and over according to his/her responses to the monthly
(basic) labor force items in March.
F-G
Family. A family is a group of two persons or more (one of whom is the
householder) residing together and related by birth, marriage, or adoption.
All such persons (including related subfamily members) are considered as
members of one family. Beginning with the 1980 CPS, unrelated subfamilies
(referred to in the past as secondary families) are no longer included in
the count of families, nor are the members of unrelated subfamilies included
in the count of family members.
Family Household. A family household is a household maintained by a family
(as defined above), and may include among the household members any unrelated
persons (unrelated subfamily members and/or unrelated individuals) who may be
residing there. The number of family households is equal to the number of
families. The count of family household members differs from the count of
family members, however, in that the family household members include all
persons living in the household, whereas family members include only the
householder and his/her relatives. (See the definition of Family).
Family Weight. The weight on the family record is the March supplement weight
of the householder or reference person. This weight on the primary family
record should be used to tabulate the number of families.
Farm Self-Employment Net Income. The term is defined as net money income
(gross receipts minus operating expenses) from the operation of a farm by a
person on his own account, as an owner, as a renter, or as a sharecropper.
Gross receipts include the value of all products sold, government crop loans,
money received from the rental of farm equipment to others, and incidental
receipts from the sale of wood, sand, gravel, etc.
Operation expenses include cost of feed, fertilizer, seed, and other farming
supplies, cash wages paid to farm hands, depreciation charges, cash rent,
interest on farm mortgages, farm building repairs, farm taxes (not State and
Federal income taxes), etc. The value of fuel, food, or other farm products
used for household living is not included as part of net income. Inventory
changes are considered in determining net income only when they are accounted
for in replies based on income tax returns or other official records which
reflect inventory changes.
Final Weight. Used in tabulating monthly labor force items. This weight
should be used when producing estimates from the basic CPS data. It should
not be used to tabulate March supplement data.
Food Stamps. The Food Stamp Act of 1977 was enacted for the purpose of
increasing the food purchasing power of eligible households through the use
of coupons to purchase food. The Food and Nutrition Service of the U.S.
Department of Agriculture (USDA) administers the Food Stamp Program through
State and local welfare offices. The Food Stamp Program is the major national
income support program which provides benefits to all low-income and low-
resource households regardless of household characteristics (e.g., sex, age,
disability, etc.). The questions on participation in the Food Stamp Program
in the March CPS were designed to identify households in which one or more of
the current members received food stamps during the previous calendar year.
Once a food stamp household was identified, a question was asked to determine
the number of current household members covered by food stamps during the
previous calendar year. Questions were also asked about the number of months
food stamps were received during the previous calendar year and the total
face value of all food stamps received during that period.
Full-Time Worker. Persons on full-time schedules include persons working 35
hours or more, persons who worked 1-34 hours for noneconomic reasons (e.g.,
illness) and usually work full-time, and persons "with a job but not at work"
who usually work full-time.
Group Health Insurance Coverage. Civilian persons 15 years old and over who
worked in the previous calendar year and who participated in group health
insurance plans provided by the employer or union were asked whether part or
all of the health insurance premiums were paid for by the union or employer
and the extent of persons covered.
Additional questions were asked to determine if sample persons were covered
by any other type of health insurance plan. These items are intended to
measure retirees covered by continuing employer provided coverage and persons
who purchased coverage on their own.
Group Quarters. Group quarters are noninstitutional living arrangements for
groups not living in conventional housing units or groups living in housing
units containing nine or more persons unrelated to the person in charge.
H-J
Head Versus Householder. Beginning with the March 1980 CPS, the Bureau of the
Census discontinued the use of the terms "head of household" and "head of
family." Instead, the terms "householder" and "family householder" are used.
Highest Grade of School Attended. (See Years of School Completed.)
Hours of Work. Hours of work statistics relate to the actual number of hours
worked during the survey week. For example, a person who normally works 40
hours a week but who is off on the Veterans Day holiday is reported as
working 32 hours even though he is paid for the holiday.
For persons working in more than one job, the figures relate to the number of
hours worked in all jobs during the week. However, all the hours are credited
to the major job.
Household. A household consists of all the persons who occupy a house, an
apartment, or other group of rooms, or a room, which constitutes a housing
unit. A group of rooms or a single room is regarded as a housing unit when it
is occupied as separate living quarters; that is, when the occupants do not
live and eat with any other person in the structure, and when there is direct
access from the outside or through a common hall. The count of households
excludes persons living in group quarters, such as rooming houses, military
barracks, and institutions. Inmates of institutions (mental hospitals, rest
homes, correctional institutions, etc.) are not included in the survey.
Household Weight. Household weight is the March Supplement weight of the
householder. This weight should be used to tabulate estimates of households.
Householder. The householder refers to the person (or one of the persons) in
whose name the housing unit is owned or rented (maintained) or, if there is
no such person, any adult member, excluding roomers, boarders, or paid
employees. If the house is owned or rented jointly by a married couple, the
householder may be either the husband or the wife. The person designated as
the householder on the file is the "reference person" on the CPS-260 control
card to whom the relationship of all other household members, if any, is
recorded.
Householder With No Other Relatives in Household. A householder who has no
relatives living in the household. This is the entry for a person living
alone. Another example is the designated householder of an apartment shared
by two or more unrelated individuals.
Householder With Other Relatives (Including Spouse) in Household. The person
designated as householder if he/she has one or more relatives (including
spouse) living in the household.
Income. For each person in the sample who is 15 years old and over, questions
are asked on the amount of money income received in the preceding calendar
year from each of the following sources: (1) money wages or salary; (2) net
income from nonfarm self-employment; (3) net income from farm self-employment;
(4) Social Security or railroad retirement; (5) Supplemental Security Income;
(6) public assistance or welfare payments; (7) interest (on savings or bonds);
(8) dividends, income from estates or trusts, or net rental income; (9)
veterans' payment or unemployment and workmen's compensation; (10) private
pensions or government employee pensions; (11) alimony or child support,
regular contributions from persons not living in the household, and other
periodic income.
Although income statistics refer to receipts during the preceding year, the
characteristics of the person such as age, labor force status, etc., and
the composition of households refer to the time of the survey. The income of
the household does not include amounts received by persons who are members of
the household during all or part of the income year if these persons no
longer reside with the household at the time of enumeration. On the other
hand, household income includes amounts reported by persons who did not
reside with the household during the income year but who were members of the
household at the time of enumeration.
Data on consumer income collected in the CPS by the Bureau of the Census
cover money income received (exclusive of certain money receipts such as
capital gains) before payments for personal income taxes, Social Security,
union dues, Medicare deductions, etc. Also, money income does not reflect the
fact that some households receive part of their income in the form of non-
money transfers such as food stamps, health benefits, subsidized housing, and
energy assistance; that many farm households receive nonmoney income in the
form of rent free housing and goods produced and consumed on the farm; or
that nonmoney income is received by some nonfarm residents that often takes
the form of the use of business transportation and facilities, or full or
partial contributions for retirement programs, medical and educational
expenses, etc. These elements should be considered when comparing income
levels. Moreover, readers should be aware that for many different reasons
there is a tendency in household surveys for respondents to under report
their income. From an analysis of independently derived income estimates, it
has been determined that wages and salaries tend to be much better reported
than such income types as public assistance, Social Security, and net income
from interest, dividends, rents, etc.
Income Sources - Wages and Salary. Money wages or salary is defined as total
money earnings received for work performed as an employee during the income
year. It includes wages, salary, Armed Forces pay, commissions, tips, piece-
rate payments, and cash bonuses earned, before deductions are made for taxes,
bonds, pensions, union dues, etc. Earnings for self-employed incorporated
businesses are considered wage and salary.
Income Sources - Nonfarm Self-Employment. Net income from nonfarm self-
employment is net money income (gross receipts minus expenses) from one's own
business, professional enterprise, or partnership. Gross receipts include the
value of all goods sold and services rendered. Expenses include costs of
goods purchased, rent, heat, light, power, depreciation charges, wages and
salaries paid, business taxes (not personal income taxes), etc. In general,
inventory changes are considered in determining net income since replies
based on income tax returns or other official records do reflect inventory
changes. However, when values of inventory changes are not reported, net
income figures exclusive of inventory changes are accepted. The value of
saleable merchandise consumed by the proprietors of retail stores is not
included as part of net income.
Income Sources - Farm Self-Employment. Net income from farm self-employment
is net money income (gross receipts minus operating expenses) from the
operation of a farm by a person on his own account, as an owner, as a renter,
or as a sharecropper. Gross receipts include the value of all products sold,
government crop loans, money received from the rental of farm equipment to
others, and incidental receipts from the sale of wood, sand, gravel, etc.
Operating expenses include cost of feed, fertilizer, seed, and other farming
supplies, cash wages paid to farm hands, depreciation charges, cash rent, in-
terest on farm mortgages, farm building repairs, farm taxes (not State and
Federal income taxes), etc. The value of fuel, food, or other farm products
used for family living is not included as part of net income. In general,
inventory changes are considered in determining net income only when they are
accounted for in replies based on income tax returns or other official
records which reflect inventory changes; otherwise, inventory changes are not
taken into account.
Income Sources - Social Security. Social Security includes Social Security
pensions and survivors' benefits, and permanent disability insurance payments
made by the Social Security Administration prior to deductions for medical
insurance and railroad retirement insurance checks from the U.S. Government.
"Medicare" reimbursements are not included.
Income Sources - Supplemental Security Income. Supplemental Security Income
includes payments made by Federal, State, and local welfare agencies to low
income persons who are (1) aged (65 years old and over), (2) blind, or (3)
disabled.
Income Sources - Public Assistance. Public assistance or welfare payments
include public assistance payments such as Aid to Families with Dependent
Children and general assistance.
Income Sources - Interest and Dividends. Interest, dividends, income from
estates or trusts, net rental income or royalties include dividends from
stockholdings or membership in associations, interest on savings or bonds,
periodic receipts from estates or trust funds, net income from rental of a
house, store, or other property to others, receipts from boarders or lodgers,
and net royalties.
Income Sources - Unemployment Compensation, Worker's Compensation, and
Veterans' Payments. Unemployment compensation, veterans' payments, or
worker's compensation includes: (1) unemployment compensation received from
government unemployment insurance agencies or private companies during
periods of unemployment and any strike benefits received from union funds;
(2) money paid periodically by the Veterans Administration to disabled
members of the Armed Forces or to survivors of deceased veterans, subsistence
allowances paid to veterans for education and on-the-job training, as well as
so-called "refunds" paid to ex-servicemen as GI insurance premiums; and (3)
worker's compensation received periodically from public or private insurance
companies for injuries incurred at work. The cost of this insurance must
have been paid by the employer and not by the person.
Income Sources - Private and Government Pensions and Annuities. Many
employers and unions have established pension program their employees so that
upon retirement the employee will receive regular income to replace his/her
earnings. Many of these programs also provide income to the employees if he/
she becomes severely disabled, or to his/her survivors if the employee dies.
Other types of retirement income include annuities and paid up life insurance
policies. Some people purchase annuities which yield a set amount over a
certain number of years. Other people may convert their paid up life
insurance policy into an annuity after they retire.
Income Sources - Alimony and Child Support. Alimony is money received
periodically from a former spouse following a divorce or separation. Child
support is money received from a parent for the support of their children
following a divorce or legal separation. Money received from relatives, other
then the parent, or friends is not considered as child support.
Receipts Not Counted As Income. Receipts from the following sources are not
included as income: (1) money received from the sale of property, such as
stocks, bonds, a house, or a car (unless the person is engaged in the
business of selling such property, in which case the net proceeds is counted
as income from self-employment); (2) withdrawals of bank deposits; (3) money
borrowed; (4) tax refunds; (5) gifts; and (6) lump-sum inheritances of
insurance payments. Industry, Occupation, and Class of Worker (I&O) - Current
Job (basic data). For the employed, current job is the job held in the
reference week (the week before the survey). Persons with two or more jobs
are classified in the job at which they worked the most hours during the
reference week. The unemployed are classified according to their latest full-
time job lasting two or more weeks or by the job (either full-time or part-
time) from which they were on layoff. The I & 0 questions are also asked of
persons not in the labor force who are in the fourth and eighth months in
sample and who have worked in the last five years. The occupation/industry
classification system for the 1980 Census of Population was used to code
March CPS data beginning with the March 1983 file.
Industry, Occupation, and Class of Worker-Longest Job (supplement data).
Longest job applies to the job held longest during the preceding year for
persons who worked that year, without regard to their current employment sta-
tus.

Job Seekers. All unemployed persons who made specific efforts to find a job
sometime during the 4-week period preceding the survey week.
K-M
Keeping House. Persons are classified as keeping house if they engage in own
housework. This is one of the "not in labor force" classifications employment
status recode (ESR) = 4.
Labor Force. Persons are classified as in the labor force if they are
employed, unemployed, or in the Armed Forces during the survey week. The
"civilian labor force" includes all civilians classified as employed or
unemployed. The file includes labor force data for civilians age 15 and over.
However, the official definition of the civilian labor force is age 16 and
over.
1. Employed. Employed persons comprise (1) all civilians who, during
the survey week did any work at all as paid employees or in their
own business or profession, or on their own farm, or who work 15
hours or more as unpaid workers on a farm or a business operated
by a member of the family; and (2) all those who have jobs but who
are not working because of illness, bad weather, vacation, or
labor-management dispute, or because they are taking time off for
personal reasons, whether or not they are seeking other jobs.
These persons would have an Labor Force Status Recode (LFSR) of 1
or 2 respectively in character 12 of the person record which
designates "at work" and "with a job, but not at work." Each
employed person is counted only once. Those persons who held more
than one job are counted in the job at which they worked the
greatest number of hours during the survey week. If they worked
an equal number of hours at more than one job, they are counted
at the job they held the longest.
2. Unemployed. Unemployed persons are those civilians who, during the
survey week, have no employment but are available for work, and
(1) have engaged in any specific job seeking activity within the
past 4 weeks such as registering at a public or private employment
office, meeting with prospective employers, checking with friends
or relatives, placing or answering advertisements, writing letters
of application, or being on a union or professional register; (2)
are waiting to be called back to a job from which they had been
laid off; or (3) are waiting to report to a new wage or salary job
within 30 days. These persons would have an LFSR code of 3 in
character 12 of the person record. The unemployed includes job
leavers, job losers, new job entrants, and job reentrants.
a. Job Leavers. Persons who quit or otherwise terminate their
employment voluntarily and immediately begin looking for
work.
b. Job Losers. Persons whose employment ends involuntarily, who
immediately begin looking for work, and those persons who
are already /on layoff.
c. New Job Entrants. Persons who never worked at a full-time job
lasting two weeks or longer.
d. Job Reentrants. Persons who previously worked at a full-time
job lasting two weeks or longer but are out of the labor
force prior to beginning to look for work.
3. Not in Labor Force. All civilians 15 years old and over who are
not classified as employed or unemployed. These persons are
further classified as major activity: keeping house, going to
school, unable to work because of long-term physical or mental
illness, and other. The "other" group includes, for the most part,
retired persons. Persons who report doing unpaid work in a family
farm or business for less than 15 hours are also classified as not
in the labor force.
For persons not in the labor force, data on previous work
experience, intentions to seek work again, desire for a job at the
time of interview, and reasons for not looking for work are asked
only in those households that are in the fourth and eighth months
of the sample, i.e., the "outgoing" groups, those which had been
in the sample for three previous months and would not be in for
the subsequent month.
These items are asked in question 24; see the questionnaire
facsimile. Such persons have an LFSR code of 5-7 in character 12
of the person record.
Finally, it should be noted that the unemployment rate represents
the number of persons unemployed as a percent of the civilian
labor force 16 years old and over. This measure can also be
computed for groups within the labor force classified by sex, age,
marital status, race, etc. The job loser, job leaver, reentrant,
and new entrant rates are each calculated as a percent of the
civilian labor force 16 years old and over; the sum of the rates
for the four groups thus equals the total unemployment rate.
Layoff. A person who is unemployed but expects to be called back to a
specific job. If he/she expects to be called back within 30 days, it is
considered a temporary layoff; otherwise, it is an indefinite layoff.
Looking for Work. A person who is trying to get work or trying to establish
a business or profession.
March Supplement Weight. The March supplement weight is on all person records
and is used to produce "supplement" estimates; that is, income, work
experience, migration, and family characteristic estimates.
Marital Status. The marital status classification identifies four major
categories: single (never married), married, widowed, and divorced. These
terms refer to the marital status at the time of enumeration.
The category "married" is further divided into "married, civilian spouse
present," "married, Armed Force spouse present", "married, spouse absent,"
"married, Armed Force spouse absent," and "separated." A person is classified
as "married, spouse present" if the husband or wife is reported as a member
of the household even though he or she may be temporarily absent on business
or on vacation, visiting, in a hospital, etc., at the time of the
enumeration. Persons reported as "separated" included those with legal
separations, those living apart with intentions of obtaining a divorce, and
other persons permanently or temporarily estranged from their spouses because
of marital discord.
For the purpose of this file, the group "other marital status" includes
"widowed and divorced," "separated," and "other married, spouse absent."
Medicare. The Medicare Program is designed to provide medical care for the
aged and disabled. The Basic Hospital Insurance Plan (Part A) is designed to
provide basic protection against hospital costs and related post-hospital
services. This plan also covers many persons under 65 years old who receive
Social Security or railroad retirement benefits based on long-term
disability. Part A is financed jointly by employers and employees through
Social Security payroll deductions. Qualified persons 65 years old and over
who are not otherwise eligible for Part A benefits may pay premiums directly
to obtain this coverage. The Medical Insurance Plan (Part B) is a voluntary
plan which builds upon the hospital insurance protection provided by the
basic plan. It provides insurance protection covering physicians' and
surgeons' services and a variety of medical and other health services
received either in hospitals or on an ambulatory basis. It is financed
through monthly premium payments by each enrollee, and subsidized by Federal
general revenue funds.
The Medicare question on the March CPS attempted to identify all persons 15
years old and over who were "covered" by Medicare at any time during the
previous calendar year. The term "covered" means enrolled in the Medicare
Program. In order to be counted, the person did not necessarily have to
receive medical care paid for by Medicare.
Medicaid. The Medicaid Program is designed to provide medical assistance to
needy families with dependent children, and to aged, blind, or permanently
and totally disabled individuals whose incomes and resources are insufficient
to meet the costs of necessary medical services. The program is administered
by State agencies through grants from the Health Care Financing Administra-
tion of the Department of Health and Human Services. Funding for medical
assistance payments consists of a combination of Federal, State, and in some
cases, local funds.
Medicaid is a categorical program with complex eligibility rules which vary
from State to State. There are two basic groups of eligible individuals:
the categorically eligible and the medically needy. The major categorically
eligible groups are all Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC)
recipients and most Supplemental Security Income (SS1) recipients. Other
categorically eligible groups are (1) those who meet basic State cash
assistance eligibility rules/aged, blind, disabled, needy single parents with
children, and, in some States, needy unemployed parents with children, but
who are not currently receiving money payments; and (2) needy persons who
meet categorical eligibility standards but are institutionalized for medical
reasons (e.g., low-income elderly persons in nursing homes). However, such
institutionalized persons are not included in the CPS universe and,
therefore, are not reflected in these statistics.
In roughly one-half of the States, coverage is extended to the medically
needy/persons meeting categorical age, sex, or disability criteria, whose
money incomes and assets exceed eligibility levels for cash assistance but
are not sufficient to meet the cost of medical care. In such States,
qualifying income and asset levels are usually above those set for cash
assistance. Families with large medical expenses relative to their incomes
and assets may also meet medically needy eligibility standards in these
States.
The Medicaid question on the March CPS attempted to identify all persons who
were "covered" by Medicaid at any time during the previous calendar year.
The term "covered" means enrolled in the Medicaid program, i.e., had a
Medicaid medical assistance card, or incurred medical bills which were paid
for by Medicaid. In order to be counted, the person did not have to receive
medical care paid for by Medicaid.
Alter data collection and creation of an initial microdata file, further
refinements were made to assign Medicaid coverage to children. In this
procedure all children under 21 years old in families were assumed to be
covered by Medicaid if either the householder or spouse reported being
covered by Medicaid (this procedure was required mainly because the Medicaid
coverage question was asked only for persons 15 years old and over). All
adult AFDC recipients and their children, and SS1 recipients living in States
which legally require Medicaid coverage of all SS1 recipients, were also
assigned coverage.
Mobility Status. The population of the United States, 15 years old and over,
is classified according to mobility status on the basis of a comparison
between the place of residence of each individual at the time of the March
CPS and the place of residence in March of the previous year.
The information on mobility status is obtained from the responses to a series
of inquiries. The first of three inquiries is: "Was...living in this house 1
year ago...?" If the answer was "No," the enumerator asked, "Where did...live
on March 1, 1988?" In classification, three main categories distinguish
nonmovers, movers, and movers from abroad.
Nonmovers are all persons who are living in the same house at the end of the
period as at the beginning of the period. Movers are all persons who are
living in a different house at the end of the period than at the beginning of
the period. Movers from abroad include all persons, either citizens or
aliens, whose place of residence is outside the United States at the begin-
ning of the period, that is, in an outlying area under the jurisdiction of
the United States or in a foreign country. The mobility status for children
is fully allocated from the mother if she is in the household; otherwise it
is allocated from the householder.
Month-In-Sample. The term is defined as the number of times a unit is
interviewed. Each unit is interviewed eight times during the life of the
sample.
N-R
Never Worked. A person who has never held a full-time civilian job lasting
two consecutive weeks or more.
Nonfamily Householder. A nonfamily householder (formerly called a primary
individual) is a person maintaining a household while living alone or with
nonrelatives only.
Nonfarm Self-employment Net Income. The term is defined as net money income
(gross receipts minus expenses) from an individual's own business,
professional enterprise, or partnership. Gross receipts include the value of
all goods sold and services rendered. Expenses include costs of goods
purchased, rent, heat, light, power, depreciation charges, wages and salaries
paid, business taxes (not personal income taxes), etc. In general, inventory
changes are considered in determining net income; replies based on income
tax returns or other official records do reflect inventory changes; however,
when values of inventory changes are not reported, net income figures
exclusive of inventory changes are accepted. The value of saleable
merchandise consumed by the proprietors of retail stores is not included as
part of net income.
Nonworker. A person who did not do any work in the calendar year preceding
the survey.
Nonrelative of Householder With No Own Relatives in Household. A nonrelative
of the householder who has no relative(s) of his own in the household. This
category includes such nonrelatives as a ward, a lodger, a servant, or a
hired hand, who has no relatives of his own living with him in the household.
Nonrelative of Householder With Own Relatives (Including Spouse) in
Household. Any household member who is not related to the householder but
has relatives of his own in the household; for example, a lodger, his spouse,
and their son.
Other Relative of Householder. Any relative of the householder other than
his spouse, child (including natural, adopted, foster, or step child),
sibling, or parent; for example, grandson, daughter-in-law, etc.
Own Child. A child related by birth, marriage, or adoption to the family
householder.
Part-Time, Economic Reasons. The item includes slack work, material
shortages, repairs to plant or equipment, start or termination of job during
the week, and inability to find full-time work. (See also Full-Time Worker.)
Part-Time Other Reasons. The item includes labor dispute, bad weather, own
illness, vacation, demands of home housework, school, no desire for full-time
work, and full-time worker only during peak season.
Part-Time Work. Persons who work between 1 and 34 hours are designated as
working "part-time" in the current job held during the reference week. For
the March supplement, a person is classified as having worked part-time
during the preceding calendar year if he worked less than 35 hours per week
in a majority of the weeks in which he worked during the year. Conversely, he
is classified as having worked full-time if he worked 35 hours or more per
week during a majority of the weeks in which he worked.
Part-Year Work. Part-year work is classified as less than 50 weeks' work.
Pension Plan. The pension plan question on the March CPS attempted to
identify if pension plan coverage was available through an employer or
union and if the employee was included. This information was collected for
civilian persons 15 years old and over who worked during the previous
calendar year.
Population Coverage. Population coverage includes the civilian population of
the United States plus approximately 820,000 members of the Armed Forces in
the United States living off post or with their families on post but excludes
all other members of the Armed Forces. This file excludes inmates of
institutions. The labor force and work experience data are not collected for
Armed Forces members.
Poverty. In this file, families and unrelated individuals are classified as
being above or below the poverty level using a poverty index adopted by
a Federal Interagency Committee in 1969 and slightly modified in 1981.
The modified index provides a range of income cutoffs or "poverty thresholds"
adjusted to take into account family size, number of children, and age of the
family householder or unrelated individual; prior to 1981, adjustments were
also made on the basis of farm-nonfarm residence and sex of the householder.
The impact of these revisions on the poverty estimates is minimal at the
national level. The poverty cutoffs are updated every year to reflect changes
in the Consumer Price Index. The average poverty threshold for a family of
four was $ 12,091 in 1985. For a detailed explanation of the poverty
definition, see Current Population Reports, Series P-60, No. 154, Money
Income and Poverty Status of Persons in the United States: 1988.
Public Assistance. (See Income.)
Public or Other Subsidized Housing. Participation in public housing is
determined by two factors: program eligibility and the availability of
housing. Income standards for initial and continuing occupancy vary by local
housing authority, although the limits are constrained by Federal guidelines.
Rental charges, which, in turn, define net benefits, are set by a Federal
statute not to exceed 30 percent of net monthly money income. A recipient
unit can either be a family of two or more related persons or an individual
who is handicapped, elderly, or displaced by urban renewal or natural
disaster. There are some programs through which housing assistance is
provided to low-income families and individuals living in public or privately
owned dwellings. Two of the more common types of programs in which Federal,
State, and local funds are used to subsidize private sector housing are rent
supplement and interest reduction plans. Under a rent supplement plan the
difference between the "fair market" rent and the rent charged to the tenant
is paid to the owner by a government agency. Under an interest reduction
program the amount of interest paid on the mortgage by the owner is reduced
so that subsequent savings can be passed along to low income tenants in the
form of lower rent charges.
There were two questions dealing with public and low cost housing on the
March CPS supplement questionnaire. The first question identifies residence
in a housing unit owned by a public agency. The second question identifies
beneficiaries who were not living in public housing projects, but who were
paying lower rent due to a government subsidy. These questions differ from
other questions covering noncash benefits in that they establish current
recipiency status in March of the current year rather than recipiency status
during the previous year.
Race. The population is divided into five groups on the basis of race: White,
Black, American Indian/Aleut Eskimo, Asian or Pacific Islander and Other
races beginning with March 1989. The last category includes any other race
except the four mentioned. In most of the published tables, "Other Races"
are shown in total population.
Receipts Not Counted as Income. Receipts from the following sources are not
included as income: (1) money received from the sale of property, such as
stocks, bonds, a house, or a car (unless the person was engaged in the
business of selling such property, in which case the net proceeds would be
counted as income from self-employment); (2) withdrawals of bank deposits;
(3) money borrowed; (4) tax refunds; (5) gifts; and (6) lump-sum inheritances
or insurance payments.
Reentrants. Persons who previously worked at a full-time job lasting two
weeks or longer but who are out of the labor force prior to beginning to
look for work.
Related Children. Related children in a family include own children and all
other children in the household who are related to the householder by birth,
marriage, or adoption. For each type of family unit identified in the CPS,
the count of own children under 18 years old is limited to single (never
married) children; however, "own children under 25" and "own children of any
age," include all children regardless of marital status. The totals include
never-married children living away from home in college dormitories.
Related Subfamily. A related subfamily is a married couple with or without
children, or one parent with one or more own single (never married) children
under 18 years old, living in a household and related to, but not including,
the householder or spouse. The most common example of a related subfamily is
a young married couple sharing the home of the husband's or wife's parents.
The number of related subfamilies is not included in the number of families.
S-Y
School. A person who spent most of his time during the survey week attending
any kind of public or private school, including trade or vocational schools
in which students receive no compensation in money or kind.
School Lunches. The National School Lunch Program is designed to assist
States in providing a school lunch for all children at moderate cost. The
National School Lunch Act of 1946 was further amended in 1970 to provide
free and reduced-price school lunches for children of needy families. The
program is administered by the Food and Nutrition Service of the U.S.
Department of Agriculture (USDA) through State educational agencies or
through regional USDA nutrition services for nonprofit private schools. The
program is funded by a combination of Federal funds and matching State funds.
All students eating lunches prepared at participating schools pay less than
the total cost of the lunches. Some students pay the "full established" price
for lunch (which itself is subsidized) while others pay a "reduced" price for
lunch, and still others receive a "free" lunch. Program regulations require
students receiving free lunches to live in households with incomes below 125
percent of the official poverty level. Those students receiving a reduced-
price school lunch (10 to 20 cents per meal) live in households with incomes
between 125 percent and 195 percent of the official poverty level. The data
in this file, however, do not distinguish between recipiency of free and
reduced-price school lunches.
The questions on the March CPS provide a very limited amount of data for the
school lunch program. Questions concerning the school lunch program were
designed to identify the number of members 5 to 18 years old in households
who "usually" ate a hot lunch. This defined the universe of household members
usually receiving this noncash benefit. This was followed by a question to
identify the number of members receiving free or reduced price lunches.
Self-Employed. Self-employed persons are those who work for profit or fees
in their own business, profession or trade, or operate a farm.
Spanish Origin. Persons of Spanish origin in this file are determined on the
basis of a question that asked for self-identification of the person's origin
or descent. Respondents are asked to select their origin (or the origin of
some other household member) from a "flash card" listing ethnic origins.
Persons of Spanish origin, in particular, are those who indicated that their
origin was Mexican-American, Chicano, Mexican, Mexicano, Puerto Rican, Cuban,
Central or South American, or other Spanish.
Stretches of Unemployment. A continuous stretch is one that is not
interrupted by the person getting a job or leaving the labor market to go to
school, to keep house, etc. A period of two weeks or more during which a
person is employed or ceased looking for work is considered to break the
continuity of the period of seeking work.
Topcode. For confidentiality purposes, usual hourly earnings from the current
job and earnings from the longest job are topcoded, i.e., cut off at a
particular amount.
Refer to Appendix F for an explanation and topcode values of hourly earnings
from the current job. Earnings from the longest job are collected during
enumeration up to $299,999; however, the amount is topcoded on the public
use file at $99,999.
From the supplement, total person's income is the sum of the amounts from the
individual income types; total family income is the sum of the total persons
income for each family member; total household income is the sum of the total
income for each person in the household.
Total Money Income. The term is defined is the arithmetic sum of money wages
and salaries, net income from self-employment, and income other than
earnings. The total income of a household is the arithmetic sum of the
amounts received by all income recipients in the household.
Unable to Work. A person is classified as unable to work because of long-term
physical or mental illness, lasting six months or longer.
Unemployed. (See Labor Force.)
Unemployment Compensation. (See Income.)
Unpaid Family Workers. Unpaid family workers are persons working without pay
for 15 hours a week or more on a farm or in a business operated by a member
of the household to whom they are related by birth or marriage.
Unrelated Individuals. Unrelated individuals are persons of any age (other
than inmates of institutions) who are not living with any relatives. An
unrelated individual may be (1) a nonfamily householder living alone or with
nonrelatives only, (2) a roomer, boarder, or resident employee with no
relatives in the household, or (3) a group quarters member who has no
relatives living with him/her. Thus, a widow who occupies her house alone or
with one or more other persons not related to her, a roomer not related to
anyone else in the housing unit, a maid living as a member of her employer's
household but with no relatives in the household, and a resident staff
member in a hospital living apart from any relatives are all examples of
unrelated individuals.
Unrelated Subfamily. An unrelated subfamily is a family that does not include
among its members the householder and relatives of the householder. Members
of unrelated subfamilies may include persons such as guests, roomers,
boarders, or resident employees and their relatives living in a household.
The number of unrelated subfamily members is included in the number of
household members but is not included in the count of family members.
Persons living with relatives in group quarters were formerly considered as
members of families. However, the number of such unrelated subfamilies is so
small that persons in these unrelated subfamilies are included in the count
of secondary individuals.
Veteran Status. If a person served at any time during the four major wars of
this century, the code for the most recent wartime service is entered. The
following codes are used:
0 Females, children under 15
1 Vietnam era
2 Korean
3 WWI
4 WWII
5 Other Service
6 Nonveteran
Wage and Salary Workers. Wage and salary workers receive wages, salary,
commission, tips, or pay in kind from a private employer or from a
governmental unit. Also included are persons who are self-employed in an
incorporated business. (See income.)
Weeks Worked in the Income Year. Persons are classified according to the
number of different weeks, during the preceding calendar year, in which they
did any civilian work for pay or profit (including paid vacations and sick
leave) or worked without pay on a family-operated farm or business.
Workers. (See Labor Force--Employed.)
Work Experience. Includes those persons who during the preceding calendar
year did any work for pay or profit or worked without pay on a family-
operated farm or business at any time during the year, on a part-time or
full-time basis.
Year-Round Full-Time Worker. A year-round full-time worker is one who usually
worked 35 hours or more per week for 50 weeks or more during the preceding
calendar year. Years of School Completed. Data on years of school completed
are derived from the combination of answers to questions concerning the
highest grade of school attended by the person and whether or not that grade
is finished. Educational attainment applies only to progress in "regular"
school. Such schools include graded public, private, and parochial elementary
and high schools (both junior and senior high), colleges, universities, and
professional schools, whether day schools or night schools. Thus, regular
schooling is that which may advance a person toward an elementary school
certificate or high school diploma, or a college, university, or professional
school degree. Schooling in other than regular schools is counted only if the
credits obtained are regarded as transferable to a school in the regular
school system.

APPENDIX E - SPECIFIC METROPOLITAN IDENTIFIERS
Specific Metropolitan ldentifiers
The specific metropolitan identifiers on this file are based on the Office of
Management and Budget's June 30,1984 definitions and are ranked according to
Census Bureau population estimates for July 1,1983. Identification of CMSA's
is based on the CMSA/MSA rank code (see List 1) or the CMSA FIPS Code (see
List 5). MSA's can be Identified by using either the CMSA/MSA rank code (List
1) or the FIPS MSA/PMSA code (List 4). PMSA's can be Identified by either the
FIPS MSA/PMSA code (List 4) or a combination of the CMSA/MSA rank codes and
the PMSA rank code (List 2). Identification of Individual central cities is
based on a combination of codes (See List 3). Individual central cities are
identified by the appropriate central city code and the FIPS MSA/PMSA code or
the appropriate central city code, the CMSA/MSA rank code, and, if necessary,
the PMSA rank code. Some examples of the proper coding of specific
metropolitan areas are given below.

NOTES:
1. Do not attempt to tally CMSA totals by summing identified PMSA's. The
specific PMSA identification for some PMSA's is suppressed while the
specific CMSA for those areas is available. The New Hampshire portion of
the Boston CMSA is an example of this. While specific identification of
Nashua and the Lawrence-Haverill and Lowell portions is suppressed, all
areas are coded as being in the Boston CMSA.
2. Many of the smaller metropolitan areas in sample do not contain central
city/balance breakdowns and hence, are coded "not identifiable" in the
household central city metropolitan statistical area residence status
code (HCCC-R). It is recommended that this code in conjunction with the
modified household metropolitan statistical area residence status code
(HMSA-R) be used for tallying metropolitan residence status for
national and other grouped data. The HG in each listing refers to
Household Geographic.

APPENDIX H - SOURCE AND ACCURACY STATEMENT (METHODOLOGY)
Source of Data
The data for this survey came from the March 1990 Current Popula-
tion Survey (CPS), conducted by the Bureau of the Census. The
March survey uses two sets of questions, the basic CPS and the
supplements.
Basic CPS. The monthly CPS collects primarily labor force data
about the civilian noninstitutional population. Interviewers ask
questions concerning labor force participation about each member
I5 years old and over in every sample household.
The present CPS sample was selected from the 1980 Decennial
Census files with coverage in all 50 states and the District of
Columbia. The sample is continually updated to account for new
residential construction. It is located in 729 areas comprising
1,973 counties, independent cities, and minor civil divisions.
About 60,000 occupied households are eligible for interview every
month. Interviewers are unable to obtain interviews at about
2,600 of these units. The occupants are not found at home after
repeated calls or are unavailable for some other reason.
Since the introduction of the CPS, the Bureau of the Census has
redesigned the CPS sample several times. These redesigns have
improved the quality and reliability of the data and have satis-
fied changing data needs. The most recent changes were complete-
ly implemented in July 1985.
March supplement. In addition to the basic CPS questions,
interviewers asked supplementary questions in March about money
income received in the previous calendar year, educational
attainment, household and family characteristics, marital status
and geographical mobility.
To obtain more reliable data for the Hispanic origin population,
the March CPS sample was increased by about 2,500 eligible
housing units. These housing units were interviewed the previous
November and contained at least one sample person of Hispanic
origin. In addition, the sample included persons in the Armed
Forces living off post or with their families on post.
Estimation Procedure. This survey's estimation procedure in-
flates weighted sample results to independent estimates of the
civilian noninstitutional population of the United States by age,
sex, race and Hispanic/non-Hispanic categories. The independent
estimates were based on statistics from decennial censuses of
population; statistics on births, deaths, immigration and emigra-
tion; and statistics on the size of the Armed Forces. The
estimation procedure for the March supplement included a further
adjustment so husband and wife of a household received the same
weight.
Accuracy of the Estimates
Since the CPS estimates come from a sample, they may differ from
figures from a complete census using the same questionnaires,
instructions, and enumerators. A sample survey estimate has two
possible types of error: sampling and nonsampling. The accuracy
of an estimate depends on both types of error, but the full
extent of the nonsampling error is unknown. Consequently, one
should be particularly careful when interpreting results based on
a relatively small number of cases or on small differences
between estimates.
Nonsampling variability. There are several sources of
nonsampling error including:
inability to get information about all sample cases;
definitional difficulties;
differences in interpretation of questions;
respondents' inability or unwillingness to provide
correct information;
respondents' inability or unwillingness to recall
information;
errors made in data collection, such as recording and
coding data;
errors made in processing the data;
errors made in estimating values for missing data; and
failure to represent all units with the sample (under-
coverage)
CPS undercoverage results from missed housing units and missed
persons within sample households. Compared to the level of the
1980 Decennial Census, overall CPS undercoverage is about 7
percent. CPS undercoverage varies with age, sex, and race.
Generally, undercoverage is larger for males than for females and
larger for Blacks and other races combined than for Whites. As
described previously, ratio estimation to independent age-sex-
race-Hispanic population controls partially corrects for the bias
due to undercoverage. However, biases exist in the estimates to
the extent that missed persons in missed households or missed
persons in interviewed households have different characteristics
from those of interviewed persons in the same age-sex-race-
Hispanic group. Furthermore, the independent population controls
have not been adjusted for undercoverage in the 1980 census.
For additional information on nonsampling error including the
possible impact on CPS data when known, refer to Statistical
Policy Working Paper 3, An Error Profile: Employment as Measured
by the Current Population survey, Office of Federal Statistical
Policy and Standards, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1978 and
Technical Paper 40, The Current Population survey: Design and
Methodology, Bureau of the Census, U.S. Department of Commerce.
Comparability of data. Data obtained from the CPS and other
sources are not entirely comparable. This results from dif-
ferences in interviewer training and experience and in differing
survey processes. This is an example of nonsampling variability
not reflected in the standard errors. Use caution when comparing
results from different sources.
Caution should also be used when comparing data from this micro-
data file, which reflects 1980 census-based population controls,
with microdata files from March 1980 and earlier years, which
reflect 1970 census-based population controls. This change in
population controls had relatively little impact on summary
measures such as means, medians, and percentage distributions.
It did have a significant impact on levels. For example, use of
1980 based population controls results in about a 2-percent
increase in the civilian noninstitutional population and in the
number of families and households. Thus, estimates of levels for
data collected in 1981 and later years will differ from those for
earlier years by more than what could be attributed to actual
changes in the population. These differences could be dispropor-
tionately greater for certain subpopulation groups than for the
total population.
Since no independent population control totals for persons of
Hispanic origin were used before 1985, compare Hispanic estimates
over time cautiously.
Note when using small estimates. Because of the large standard
errors involved, summary measures probably do not reveal useful
information when computed on a base smaller than 75,000.
Take care in the interpretation of small differences. Even a
small amount of nonsampling error can cause a borderline differ-
ence to appear significant or not, thus distorting a seemingly
valid hypothesis test.
Sampling variability. Sampling variability is variation that
occurred by chance because a sample was surveyed rather than the
entire population. Standard errors as calculated below are
primarily measures of sampling variability, but they may include
some nonsampling error.
Standard errors and their use. A number of approximations are
required to derive, at a moderate cost, standard errors applica-
ble to estimates from this data. Instead of providing an indi-
vidual standard error for each estimate, generalized sets of
standard errors are provided for various types of characteris-
tics. Thus, the tables show levels of magnitude of standard
errors rather than the precise standard errors.
The sample estimate and its standard error enable one to con-
struct a confidence interval. A confidence interval is a range
that would include the average result of all possible samples
with a known probability. For example, if all possible samples
were surveyed under essentially the same general conditions and
the same sample design, and if an estimate and its standard error
were calculated from each sample, then approximately 90 percent
of the intervals from 1.6 standard errors below the estimate to
1.6 standard errors above the estimate would include the average
result of all possible samples.
A particular confidence interval may or may not contain the
average estimate derived from all possible samples. However, one
can say with specified confidence that the interval includes the
average estimate calculated from all possible samples.
Standard errors may be used to perform hypothesis testing. This
is a procedure for distinguishing between population parameters
using sample estimates. The most common type of hypothesis is
that the population parameters are different. An example of this
would be comparing the percentage of Whites with a college educa-
tion to the percentage of Blacks with a college education.
Tests may be performed at various levels of significance. A
significance level is the probability of concluding that the
characteristics are different when, in fact, they are the same.
For example, to conclude the two parameters are different at the
0.10 level of significance, the absolute value of the estimated
difference between characteristics must be greater than or equal
to 1.6 times the standard error of the difference.
The Census Bureau uses 90-percent confidence intervals and 0.10
levels of significance to determine statistical validity.
Consult standard statistical texts for alternative criteria.

USER NOTE
The March CPS 1990 file has been revised and the changes are described below.
Data Dictionary. A new item, line number of household respondent H-RESPNM,
has been added to the household record in position 12. In the family record
FAGEU18, position 26, has been changed to FILLER because FAGEU18 has a
nonzero value for more families than necessary. However, the field FOWNU18,
position 27, is reliable. Also, the universe descriptions of several
variables has changed. These dictionary changes are listed below.
Migration. Revisions were made to the migration edit to allocate more fields
about a person's geography now than before, making migration recodes more
consistent with residence fields. Some metro/nonmetro classifications of
previous geography have been corrected.
Work experience. For 74 person records, the sum of the two fields WKSWORK
and LKWEEKS exceeded 52. The field LKWEEKS was modified for these records.
Current armed forces members were coded as not in universe for work
experience recodes added to person records for the public use file. On the
new file they are in the universe.
Poverty. Some unrelated individuals were receiving a poverty threshold (field
FPOVCUT) based on the wrong age of the head. Only two persons were mistakenly
classified are below poverty on the first file. On the new file FPOVCUT was
corrected for everyone.
Appendices. Appendix B1, Detailed Occupational Classification Codes for
Detailed Occupational Categories has been revised. For Appendix C, Selected
Tables, replace tables 6,9, and 10. The attached pages should be filed in
their appropriate places in the original technical documentation.
Revised tapes will be provided upon request to individuals who previously
purchased the CPS tape. This cover sheet should be filed in Appendix 1,
User Notes.
