CES Technical Notes Series from Center for Economic Studies, U.S. Census Bureau

Abstract: In the process of our data analysis, we uncovered facts about Census data files that are likely to be of interest to the Census Bureau and other researchers. We also developed code to correct data inconsistencies and errors, particularly in the 2002 Census of Services (CSR). These facts are described below, as are our methods for dealing with the associated data problems.
