**CENSUS BUREAU MEDIA ADVISORY**
Census Bureau to Brief Reporters on
Local Census 2000 Supplementary Survey Results
What: The Census Bureau's Dallas 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 Houston City, Texas, 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.
