Congressional Briefing, “The Ailing Economy: How Do Census Data Help?,”

On February 23, 2009, APDU co-sponsored a congressional briefing, “The Ailing Economy: How Do Census Data Help?,” organized by the Population Association of America and the Association of Population Centers. This briefing, with 74 attendees, provided an opportunity for congressional staff to hear officials from the New York City Department of City Planning, Target Corporation, and the National Low Income Housing Coalition discuss how they use census data—for example, to allocate programmatic funds, make marketing and investment decisions, and analyze developments in the U.S. housing market.
