AHS: Metro Comparer Files Posted to HUD USER

From: American Housing Survey (AHS) ListServ <ahs@huduser.gov>

The 2009 national American Housing Survey (AHS) included special supplementary samples of housing units in five metropolitan areas: Chicago, Detroit, Philadelphia, New York, and Northern New Jersey. The data collected in these supplementary samples are included in the national AHS public use file (PUF). As part of the quality control process, Econometrica, Inc., under contract with the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), produced a set of spreadsheets to compare standard tabulations of the 2009 data with the 2003 AHS (the previous survey in which supplementary samples were included). A zip archive containing the comparison files has been posted to the 2009 AHS web page on HUD USER, https://www.huduser.gov/portal/datasets/ahs.html.
