TITLE:
Coordinating the Sample Designs for the Household Surveys that
Provide the Nation's Vital Statistics

ABSTRACT:

Information from household surveys conducted by the Bureau of the Census provide vital statistics on the nation's jobs, housing, health, crime, income and poverty, education, marriage and family, race and ethnicity, and aging.  Following each decennial census, the Census Bureau and the other federal agencies that sponsor the major household surveys, redesign the samples for these surveys to conform to the distribution of the population revealed by the decennial census.  The strategies for coordinating the sample designs for these surveys will be discussed.
