Spatial variation in the quality of American Community Survey estimates.
The authors use a series of multivariate spatial regression models to describe the patterns of association between uncertainty in estimates and economic, demographic, and geographic factors, controlling for the number of responses in the American Community Survey. They find that these demographic and geographic patterns in estimate quality persist even after accounting for the number of responses, and they present advice for data users and potential solutions to the challenges identified.
