It is vital that the researchers know how the data was collected, which statistical techniques are useful and why, and how to model the data in order to draw inferences about the whole population. Analyzing Census Microdata meets and is relevant to a wide and international market. Analyzing Census Microdata - written by some of the leading authorities in the field - provides the first guide to the analysis of census microdata, with the basic statistical summary techniques presented in a clear and concise way. It contains a large number of up-to-date examples, drawing on data from the USA, the UK and a wide variety of other international contexts. I concludes with a chapter discussing applications specific to census microdata - such as the ethnic composition of families in Great Britain and in the United States, and a cross-national examination of Chinese immigrant populations.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePreface \u003cp\u003e1 The United States Census and the R programming language\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 An introduction to tidycensus\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 Wrangling Census data with tidyverse tools\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Exploring US Census data with visualization\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 Census geographic data and applications in R\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Mapping Census data with R\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 Spatial analysis with US Census data\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 Modeling US Census data\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 Introduction to Census microdata\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10 Analyzing Census microdata\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e11 Other Census and government data resources\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e12 Working with Census data outside the United States\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Mathematics [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Mathematics\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Mathematics%20%5BPB%5D%22\"\u003ePB\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52278021521688,"sku":"9780470689196","price":43.85,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780470689196.jpg?v=1781455812","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/analyzing-census-microdata-paperback-softback-9780470689196","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
