Abstract:

For the 2010 Census, the goals and objectives of the Census Coverage Measurement (CCM) program have been expanded to include components of coverage errors that include erroneous enumerations and omissions. Because one of the goals and objectives is to estimate the omissions by whether the housing unit was included in the census, we are researching ways to estimate the true population by whether the housing unit was enumerated. We present our research findings on methods for estimating the population in enumerated housing units. For this population, we examined whether we can use the housing unit matching to allow census outcome covariates to be used in the modeling of the match status.
