CSDE Computational Demography Working Group Hosts Brad Foster on Measuring Migration with Linked Census Bureau and Administrative Records (5/17/23)

Posted: 5/14/2023 (Demography News)

On May 17 from 3-4pm Brad Foster, a Senior Sociologist in the Census Bureau’s Center for Economic Studies, earned his Ph.D. from the UW Sociology department and is an alumnus of the CSDE training and fellowship program will join CDWG to discuss measuring migration with linked Census Bureau and administrative records. Brad will provide an overview of ongoing efforts at the Census Bureau to leverage administrative records — in combination with decennial and survey data — to improve measures of migration, track short- and long-term migration trends, gauge the accuracy of survey migration responses, and understand how migration and residential mobility may contribute to declining survey response rates.

Deadline: 05/17/2023
