AHS: AHS 2011 Version 1.1 Dataset Available

Version 1.1 of the Public Use File Released

HUD has posted version 1.1 of the American Housing Survey microdata PUF. Version 1.1 includes additions and updates to version 1.0. The most notable update is the inclusion of replicate national weights. Another highlight is the addition of a variable, NATLFLAG to identify cases that are in the regular national sample, as opposed to the metropolitan supplement. To assist AHS data users in understanding the major and minor changes, HUD and Census have posted a “PUF Version Control” document. PUF version 1.1 and the PUF Version Control document are available at: https://www.huduser.gov/portal/datasets/ahs.html
