Trump orders Dept of Commerce to create a new #census that does not include #undocumented #migrants who live in the United States. The #census counting includes all persons living in the #UnitedStates. His goal is to redistrict all the voting maps to increase #GOP #republican voters in all states. This aligns with #GOP efforts in #Texas #Florida #Indiana to #gerrymander and redistrict to eliminate seats that provide transparent accurate representation to independent and #democrat #voters.

Morena New Zealand. It's another chilly morning in the south.

NZ CENSUS
After proving ineffective in the role of Health Minister, Shane Reti wearing his 'Statistics Minister' hat is lauding Stats NZ's plan to kill off the NZ census in favour of "administrative data from government agencies". Reti cites the UK as an example of what they're trying to achieve.

stuff.co.nz/politics/360727650

So how's it going in the UK? Whoops! They're on the verge of abandoning the reform, with leading academics and statisticians warning the approach “risks an increasingly fragmented and inaccurate data landscape”, describing the government’s plans as “wishful thinking”.

NZ's 2023 Census cost $325m. Luxon's losers have only budgeted $227m for the 2030 Census. They've grabbed $100m to feed their tax cuts for the rich. That's their main motivation for "reform".

"They're looking to kill a bunch of #census #data collection. Talk about penny-wise pound-foolish behavior that's going to make it harder to actually understand America +do basic policymaking/research work. They're setting the seed corn on fire for fun.

Announcing cuts to census surveys the same day we're ann a $25B missile defense system so we can intercept the nukes the cartels have or something. What a joke.

@davidsirota The report:

pestakeholder.org/reports/priv

says:

>We have identified 121 private equity companies[36] that own at least 8,200 apartment buildings with over 2.2 million units.[37]
>
>...
>
>Private equity’s ownership of almost 2.2 million apartment units represents about 10 percent of the total number of apartment units in the country.[39]

Source 37 is only given as:

>Data Source: Yardi Matrix and Lexis Nexis

Which, unfortunately, is a duo of proprietary sources. The authors likely can't release it for verification :(

Source 39 is given as:

>According to the National Multifamily Housing Council’s tabulation of 2023 American Community Survey microdata from the US Census Bureau, there are almost 23.3 million apartment units in the U.S. An apartment unit is defined as any rental unit in a structure with 5 or more units. nmhc.org/research-insight/quic

Alas, that page gives only a bunch of spreadsheets, with no indication of where the 23.3 million number is coming from. Looks like it comes from the "State Distribution of Apartment Stock, 2022" XLS file, as the sum of all 50 cells with numbers for apartment units for each state comes up to "23,275,718" total units, which is indeed "almost 23.3 million."

Their underlying data source is the American Community Survey microdata, and the NMHC frustratingly does not release their work/code on how they go from that microdata to their tabulations.

Attempting to look at building stats from the microdata, for example, gives this:

data.census.gov/app/mdat/ACSPU

I can't get any of their numbers in their "State Distribution of Apartment Stock, 2022" XLS file (NMHC tabulations of 2023 American Community Survey microdata, US Census Bureau. Updated 10/2024) to line up with this table. According to the above linked table, there are 6,603,715 5+ apartment units, 6,205,203 10+ apartments units, 5,517,342 20+ apartment units, and 9,795,042 50+ apartment units, for a total of 28,121,302 estimated apartment units, across the United States. The table I selected includes DC, but that only accounts for 201,294 of the total.

28.1 million (or 27.9 million without DC) apartment units is pretty far from 23.3 million apartment units. What gives? Perhaps NMHC uses a different Housing Unit Weight? Does other prodcessing of the microdata?

The resulting percentage of apartment units owned by private equity would still be alarming (7.88%), just not quite at that double-digit 10.0% mark.

The deletions began shortly after #Trump took office. #CDC web pages on #vaccines, #HIV prevention, & #ReproductiveHealth went missing. Findings on #BirdFlu transmission vanished minutes after they appeared. The #Census Bureau’s public repository went offline, then returned w/o certain directories of geographic info. The #DOJ expunged the #Jan6th #insurrection from its site, & whitehouse.gov took down an explainer page about the #Constitution.

"Commerce Sec Lutnick has terminated all 3 Census Bureau Committees of outside advisers.

- #2030Census Advisory CMTE
- Census Scientific Advisory CMTE
- Nat. Advisory Committee on Racial, Ethnic & Other Pops.

I've reached out to the press offices of the bureau and the COMM Dept for comment...

The Trump admin is WHITEwashing the census. It reveals the diversity of the US.
