The Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics (LEHD) program was designed by the U.S. Census Bureau to bring together census information, surveys, and administrative records in an attempt to offer more specific data on local labor market conditions. Visitors to the site will note that the main sections on the homepage include "Local Employment Dynamics", "Data Tools", "Research", and "Library". The "Data Tools" area is a good place to start as interested parties can view local community economic development reports, view an interactive map of data, and also read a variety of case studies. Moving on, the "Research" area leads to working papers on related projects, such as those on low wage work and human capital and productivity. Finally, the "Library" includes statistical profiles of older workers, presentations, and information on their workshops.
