**CENSUS BUREAU MEDIA ADVISORY**
Census Bureau to Brief Reporters on
Local Census 2000 Supplementary Survey Results
What: The Census Bureau's Detroit 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 the Canton/Massillon, Ohio, Metropolitan Statistical
Area, 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.
When: Thursday, Nov. 15, at 11 a.m. EST
Who: Dwight Dean, Detroit regional director
Leonard Norry, assistant division chief, Housing Characteristics
Branch, U.S. Census Bureau
