America Counts: Stories Behind the Numbers
Big Improvements to the Annual Integrated Economic Survey (AIES)
Data collection for the second year of the Annual Integrated Economic Survey (AIES) is underway and with it comes updates to survey design and content that will enhance the survey experience and improve data quality.
The U.S. Census Bureau launched the AIES last year as a comprehensive survey, covering nearly the entire U.S. economy and capturing detailed data at national, regional, divisional and state levels.
The AIES consolidated seven annual Census Bureau economic programs into one, that this year will collect 2024 economic data from about 298,000 U.S. businesses electronically through a secure platform. The survey will be sent to a new sample of businesses next year, with subsequent resampling every three years.
The first year provided valuable insights, paving the way for key improvements and refinements in survey design and content.
