**CENSUS BUREAU MEDIA ADVISORY**
Census Bureau to Brief Reporters on
Local Census 2000 Supplementary Survey Results
What: The Census Bureau's Denver Regional Office will brief media on
new Census 2000 Supplementary Survey (C2SS) data on demographic,
economic, social and housing characteristics for cities and
counties of 250,000 population or more. These data, including
those for Phoenix City, Ariz., will illustrate characteristics,
such as education, language spoken at home, household income,
poverty and travel time to work. The 700,000-household survey was
conducted simultaneously with last year's census and was designed
to test the operational feasibility of collecting long form-type
data independently of a decennial census.
