Shannon, Chuck:
FYI - See bottom of this e-mail chain for the "Media Advisory" from the Census Bureau regarding the Commuter Flow data that Tom Fontaine asked about earlier today. Data was "embargoed" by the Census Bureau.
Available to the media at noon today, but not released publicly to everyone else (including us) until midnight tonight.
Bob Schwartz should be downloading the file sometime in the morning.

Census Bureau wil be releasing data and reports on commuting patterns next week.
If you have Census PIO embargo access, you'll be able to dig into it as early as Monday afternoon.
This is a new product -- so I'm not sure how the data will be structured
-- anyone know?
Enjoy.

***CENSUS BUREAU MEDIA ADVISORY***
Commuting Products to be Embargoed
The U.S. Census Bureau's Public Information Office will offer an embargo period next week for members of the media to view a series of commuting products. Statistics will be available for every county in the U.S.
showing the number of workers that commute in or out and which counties those commuters travel to and from. Additional reports and tables, based on statistics from the American Community Survey, examine U.S. residents traveling across county and state lines to work. Specifically, the products present U.S. workers who have commutes of 60 minutes or longer and workers who have "mega commutes" of at least 90 minutes and 50 miles. Statistics will also be available for every county in the U.S.
that show the number of workers that commute into or out of the county and which counties those commuters travel to and from.
The reports and tables will be posted to the Census Bureau's embargo site at noon EST Monday, March 4. The public release will be at 12:01 a.m. EST Tuesday, March 5. Wire and distribution services are prohibited from distributing embargoed news releases and data files to subscribers before the public release date and time.
If you are interested in scheduling a radio interview on Tuesday, March 5, please contact the U.S. Census Bureau Public Information Office at 301-763-3030.

The CTPP 5-year data, based on ACS 2006 - 2010 Census Data, will be released tomorrow Thursday, October 31, 2013, the URL to access the data will be published here.
The CTPP Data Access Software is a powerful tool to access the nearly 350 gigs of data provided by the Census Bureau. The Data set consists of almost 200 residence based tables, 115 workplace based tables and 39 flow tables (Home to work) for over 325,000 geographies. The data are derived from two American Community Survey microdata record sets based on the 2006 - 2010 ACS. One set is the original microdata; all tables derived from this set are designated A, the other set is a disclosure proofed microdata set; all tables derived from this set are designated B. That is to say, the first letter in the table name indicates the set from which the table was derived. For more information on disclosure proofing, please access the CTPP e-Learning module "Disclosure Proofing" at: http://ctpp.training.transportation.org/
The software contains a robust map tool, for both selecting geography and rendering results. Results can also be presented as various style charts and tables that can be rearranged to suit your analysis and display needs. Data from the tool can be downloaded as comma or semi colon delimited .csv, .xml, .shp, .tab.
Some things to be aware of:

The context sensitive (on-line) help has some bugs that are currently being addressed. A series of short film tutorials is available on the CTPP YouTube channel at: http://www.youtube.com/user/CTPPProgram.

Hi,
FHWA just published the CTPP Status Report October 2013 issue.
There are some interesting articles. If you are confused by the
employment data from ACS, CPS and LEHD, there is an article called"
Counting workers: Comparison of Employment Data for CPS, ACS and LODES".
There is another article for employment data "How hard is it to count
workers? Challenge of counting telecommuters". And, of course there is an
update on the CTPP program from AASHTO and also an update from Census
2020.
