Typically the reason when data is not available like Bike broken out for
both data sets and the same geography is that the data was collapsed.
The CB uses a statistical test on the data quality for each mode and
if the mode does not pass it is collapsed with other modes. when
looking at ACS data on factfinder you will find tables starting with a B
or C. The C means its a collapsed table.

link (3 times) and I get a error message that says 'file not loaded completely'

Hello All
Apologies for cross-posting. Cambridge Systematics, Inc. (CS) is working on
a NCHRP task to improve employment data for transportation planning. The
purpose of the task is to understand and describe both the Quarterly Census
of Employment and Wages (QCEW) [or ES-202] and the Longitudinal Employer
Household Dynamics (LEHD) data in a manner that enhances their utility and
accessibility to transportation planning agencies. More details about the
project can be found here:
http://144.171.11.40/cmsfeed/TRBNetProjectDisplay.asp?ProjectID=2823
So where do you come in? I am interested in talking to MPOs and DOTs who are
* very confident* about the quality of their employment data and have
enhanced their employment data (assuming that the QCEW data is their main
source) through either primary data collection/verification or via other
secondary sources such as Dun & Bradstreet or InfoUSA (to name a few) or a
combination of the two. If you are willing to share your employment data, CS
will compare your employment data to the QCEW data by NAICS industry
categories and will document the findings. BLS is also interested in making
the QCEW data useful to more groups so if you agree, the results of our
analysis will be shared with BLS so that any lessons learnt from MPOs and
DOTs can be used to improve the quality of the QCEW data. Hopefully we can
have a positive feedback cycle that benefits all parties and gets us better
data.
Please get in touch with me offline (contact details below) so as to avoid
cluttering this mailing list. If there is interest i will share the findings
with this list (after getting all the appropriate permissions to share).
Thanks in Advance.
Sincerely,
Krishnan
