Adam,

I just checked, and I see what you mean. You need to know, however, that the MOEs (margins of error, or sampling error) on individual income level summaries -- e.g. $50,000 to $64,999 -- would be so high for individual tracts that the data are really unusable.� I recommend that you use median income levels instead.

Good morning everyone. �I need your help for a project our MPO has recently started.� We are updating the HSTP and wanted to include income levels in our plan.� We are a small MPO and so far have found that nearly all of the income data has been suppressed for our region.� This includes both block groups and tracts in the American Community Survey 2006 -2010.� I have found that numerous datasets have been suppressed.� It�s frustrating that MPOs are required to use Census data, but in smaller MPO regions the data is suppressed.

Does anyone have any suggestions or solutions?

Thanks.
