All the studies in this book use the same data source: individual responses to the American Community Survey (ACS), the nation‘s largest household survey..The author identifies studies that clearly illustrate core econometric methods (such as regression control and difference-in-differences), replicates key statistics from the studies, and helps the reader to carefully interpret the statistics.
