AHS Codebook 1.21

c="/icons/ecblank.gif" border="0" alt="">
        Apologies for having to come out with a new version so quickly, a user discovered an error in the SMSA list that we wanted to correct as soon as possible.  As a result, version 1.21 of the AHS codebook is out and available on HUD USER, the only change is in the SMSA list.

        The next release of the AHS codebook will probably be towards the end of August. As of now, the major enhancement in that version will be a new piece of information describing if the variable is edited for confidentiality other than top- and bottom-coding. There are only a few of these – less than a dozen, but the Census Bureauand HUDthought it would be useful to document in the codebook.

        If you have any corrections or requests for clarifications, please let me know so that we caninclude them in the next release.
