Census tracks work and residence

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29 (UPI) -- The U.S. Census Bureau released a special file Monday that tracks where people live and work in America.

The Census 2000 Special Equal Employment Opportunity Tabulation contains data on the number of people employed in nearly 500 occupations, from actors to veterinarians. Data cover gender, race, ethnicity, education, age, industry and earnings. In addition, users may find where workers live, where they work and how many who work in one place live somewhere else.

Summary geographic levels include the nation, states, metropolitan areas, counties and places with populations of 50,000 or more.

In addition, a new Census 2000 EEO data tool showing occupation information by where workers live or where they work is available on the Census Bureau's Web site at census.gov.
