ACS data are used by numerous federal agencies to administer programs, yet the ACS only moved from abstraction to reality for most users in 2010, when the first ACS estimates for small areas (based on 5 years of collected data) were made available. Hence, the workshop marked the opportunity to develop a picture of the breadth of the nonfederal user base of the ACS---among them, the media, policy research and evaluation groups (that distill ACS results for the media and broader public), state and local agencies, businesses and economic development organizations, and local and regional planning authorities---and to gather information on users' experiences with the first full releases of ACS products. In addition to covering innovative uses of the information now available on a continuous basis in the ACS, the workshop gave expression to the challenges and burdens associated with the survey: the time burden places on respondents, the challenges of explaining and interpreting estimates with increased levels of variability, and the privacy and confidentiality implications of some of the ACS content. Benefits, Burdens, and Prospects of the American Community Survey: Summary of a Workshop provides a factual summary of the workshop proceedings and hints at the contours of the ACS user constituency, providing important input to the ongoing review and refinement of the ACS program"--Publisher's description. 606 $aSocial indicators$zUnited States 606 $aSocial surveys$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$vCensus 607 $aUnited States$2fast 615 0$aSocial indicators 615 0$aSocial surveys 676 $a353 702 $aCork$b Daniel L. 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bCommittee on National Statistics, 712 12$aWorkshop on the Benefits (and Burdens) of the American Community Survey 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819956303321 996 $aBenefits, burdens, and prospects of the American community survey$94074838 997 $aUNINA
