At the APDU conference yesterday, Scott Boggess came up to tell me about this new table, saying that he wanted them to call it "PB01," but they wouldn't do it. I have certainly been a loud and persistent voice protesting the difficulty of using B23001. and I'm really glad that they've fixed the problem!� Scott is the main ACS products staffer in the SEHSD at the bureau.

The 2011 ACS (1-year) file will be released next week.� Below is some information on the table changes.� For the transportation folks, one new table is Worker Population For Workplace Geography.� Also, those of us who have had trouble calculating an unemployment rate from the very detailed table, B23001, �will be very excited to see a new table, B23025.� This table contains only the basic information needed to calculate the unemployment rate, without any gender or age detail to wade through.�
�
Remember this file will have data for geographies (state, county, place, MCD) of 65,000+ population.�
