Abstract Text:

The U.S. Census Bureau's Demographic Frame (DF) is a comprehensive, person-level frame consisting of demographic, social, and economic characteristics of individuals derived from census, survey, administrative, and third-party data sources.

The DF is expected to provide information about the residential location of individuals to the Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics program; this information is currently generated from the production of the Residence Candidate File (RCF).

The current RCF needs to be assessed relative to the output generated by the DF, which establishes people's residence with its nascent Person-Place Model. This assessment will inform a plan for the eventual replacement of the RCF with a product derived from the DF. This analysis will be used to determine what improvements are necessary for the DF to meet the needs of the Job Frame for residential location of individuals.

This presentation will summarize results of this effort to evaluate and report out on the gaps between the RCF and the DF. Results will include overall comparison between these two data products, as well as geographic distance of residence location where there are differences.
