Most IPUMS data transformations are performed using variable harmonization tables that specify how each value in the source data is recoded. Some variables also require programming logic in addition to the harmonization table. The harmonization documents for this variable are:
- Harmonization table
- No supplemental programming
- Instructions for interpreting harmonization documents
Comparability — General
The United States 1900 sample is a 1-in-20 national random sample of the population. Alaska and Hawaii are not included in this dataset. Researchers needing data from those states should use the 1900 1% sample with oversamples from the IPUMS USA website. An image of historical U.S. states and territories is available here.
All the United States censuses are taken on a de jure (usual place of residence) basis.
