His current work focuses on the spatial distribution of populations, how populations are measured, and imputation rates of demographic data in the US census. This research is using 2000 US census data at multiple scales to look at census non-response and the ramifications of non-response. Additionally, he is working on a project examining historical income inequality in the Pacific Northwest. Mr. Babb has also served in a professional capacity at several Seattle based consulting firms, most recently at Community Attributes, and provided contract support to Microsoft on the Virtual Earth project.
