Has anyone tried to load the CTPP 2000 Browser on a Windows Vista
machine? I just got wind that it might not work. All my machines are
either Home XP or XP Professional and it works fine sans the normal
crash message that you just ignore and keep going. I am also trying to
get a handle if anyone has run into issues with the software on 32
versus 64 bit systems.

Yes, I've tried to load the CTPP Browser on a Windows Vista machine, and get the following error message:
Unsupported 16-Bit Application
The program or feature "\E:\Extraction Software\software\setup.exe" cannot start or run due to incompatibility with 64-bit versions of Windows. Please contact the software vendor to ask if a 64-bit Windows compatible version is available.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks.

Someone passed me this today. Apparently it was posted to the State
Data Center list serve and provides the current status of what is known
about PUMAs. PUMAs are of special importance to the transportation
community since they are now a tabulation geography for ACS and provide
the only wall-to-wall coverage of annual ACS data for metropolitan
areas. If anyone along this list will be involved with the referenced
October 14-16 State Data Center meeting please let us know what minimum
population thresholds the CB plans to propose for tract based PUMAs.
=============
State Data Center Network:
The Census Bureau is currently drafting the 2010 Public Use Microdata
Area (PUMA) delineation proposed criteria. These draft proposed
criteria were developed based on internal meetings with key Census
Bureau stakeholders, and with consideration of new challenges and issues
associated with the use of PUMAs in the publication of annual American
Community Survey (ACS) Public Use Microdata Sample (PUMS) data as well
as in the publication of ACS estimates.
The Census Bureau will present the 2010 PUMA delineation proposed
criteria at the upcoming State Data Center Annual Meeting (October
14-16, 2009) for discussion and comment. Subsequently, pending the
approval of the Census Bureau’s Statistical Areas Committee, the Census
Bureau will publish the 2010 PUMAs proposed criteria in the Federal
Register for public comment. State Data Centers (SDCs) will use the
final version of these criteria, as published in a forthcoming Federal
Register, to delineate PUMAs for Census 2010 and the ACS.
For your consideration, the following represents a high level summary of
the planned 2010 PUMA delineation proposed criteria:
1. PUMA types: One “level” of PUMAs will be delineated for the United
States, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, as compared with
two “levels” of PUMAs for Census 2000 (super-PUMAs and standard PUMAs).
Additionally, place of work PUMAs (POW PUMAs) and migration PUMAs (MIG
PUMAs) will be based on a single PUMA for county-based PUMAs or an
aggregation of adjacent PUMAs for tract-based PUMAs. Note: All
subsequent references to PUMAs in this document, unless preceded by
“POW” or “MIG”, refer to these standard PUMAs.
2. Population Thresholds: Each PUMA must contain a minimum population of
100,000 both at the time of delineation and throughout the decade for
the publication of ACS PUMS data and ACS estimates. For those areas
currently experiencing population decline, or where population decline
throughout the decade is expected, PUMAs should be initially delineated
to include a population significantly higher than 100,000 persons to
accommodate this change. Should the population of a PUMA fall
significantly below the 100,000 person threshold, the PUMA will be
combined with one or more adjacent PUMAs for ACS PUMS and ACS estimate
publication.
3. PUMA Composition: All PUMA types (PUMAs, POW PUMAs and MIG PUMAs)
must nest within states (i.e., may not cross state boundaries). PUMAs
will be based on aggregations of counties and census tracts only.
Incorporated places and MCDs will not be used as building blocks for
2010 PUMAs. Census tracts may be aggregated to approximate minor civil
divisions, incorporated places, or census designated places.
Provided the PUMA meets the minimum population threshold:
a. One county may be designated as a PUMA
b. Two or more contiguous counties may be aggregated to create a PUMA
c. Contiguous census tracts may be aggregated to create a PUMA
Tract-based PUMAs may cross county boundaries, provided that each
PUMA-county part meets a minimum area and/or population threshold (TBD -
The Census Bureau is currently determining an appropriate minimum area
and population threshold for these areas, and will provide these minimum
thresholds at the SDC Annual Meeting in October).
Census tract aggregations may compose or approximate the extent of
other types of geographic entities, including minor civil divisions,
incorporated places, and census designated places.
4. PUMA contiguity In all cases, each PUMA must constitute a
geographically contiguous area. Limited exceptions are presented here:
a. A PUMA may be discontiguous if a county is discontiguous.
b. A PUMA may be discontiguous when it surrounds another whole PUMA,
e.g., if census tracts define a PUMA that approximates an incorporated
place or census designated place, a PUMA may be defined to encompass the
area within the county surrounding the place
The Census Bureau also intends to propose additional guidelines to which
delineation participants are strongly encouraged, but not required to,
adhere.
For your consideration, the following represents a high level summary of
the planned 2010 PUMA guidelines:
1. Wherever possible, each PUMA should comprise an area that is either
entirely inside or entirely outside Core Based Statistical Areas
2. The Census Bureau recommends that the number of five-percent PUMAs be
maximized, and that five-percent PUMAs should not contain more than
200,000 people, wherever possible, unless the PUMA is defined for an
area that is or will be experiencing population decline.
We appreciate your interest in the 2010 PUMA delineation program, and
look forward to discussing the planned proposed criteria with you at the
SDC Annual Meeting in October 2009. Should you have more immediate
questions please contact the Geographic Standards and Criteria Branch
PUMA team at geo.puma(a)census.gov.
