Comprehensive Contextual Data Archive, Release 2

To facilitate access to the best contextual data, Sociometrics has developed a Contextual Data Archive. By contextual data we mean data that describe the population, social, and economic characteristics of geographic areas, from census tracts to states, in which people reside or work. The contextual data archive consists of a series of files, each organized around a different geographic unit of analysis (such as census tracts, school districts, counties, states, etc.) Each file contains variables drawn from various sources, but have one common geographic unit of analysis. Support for this project was provided by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development.

Comprehensive Archive orders include Raw Data, SPSS Program Statements, SAS Program Statements and machine-readable Users Guides. Printed User's Guides can also be purchased separately. Comprehensive Archive Cost: $495.
