Abstract:
Much of the literature on the effort to increase minority representation in Congress has focused on the extent to which creating majority-minority districts decreased the prospects for the election of Democrats. Little attention is paid to the partisanship of those drawing the district lines. An examination of redistricting in the South after the 2000 census indicates that Republican controlled state legislatures will distribute minority voters in a dramatically different fashion than will Democrat majority legislatures. When Democrats draw district lines, it is possible to draw district lines that benefit minority candidates and enhance overall Democratic electoral prospects.

Abstract:
Several states and the federal government distribute aid for special education programs based primarily on total district enrollment and a fixed aid amount per student, a method called census funding. In this policy brief, we address three questions to help policy makers, educators, and researchers better understand census-funding models and special education finance policies in general. The first question is, what are the key advantages and disadvantages of census-funding models? The second and third questions relate to aspects of policy implementation, in the event a state legislature should choose to adopt the approach. First, we examine what options are available to mitigate concerns about the equity of funding under a census funding model. Second, we examine what other options exist for helping states and districts to contain special education costs while maintaining a high level of quality.

Abstract:
The study of human resource is of vital importance both from the point of view of economic development and social welfare. It is particularly important because human beings are not only instrument of production but also end in themselves. It is necessary to know quantitative terms, the number of people living in a region at a particular time, the rate at which the number is growing and the composition and distribution of population. According to the 2011 census Ramanagara district has a population of 1,082,739. The district has a population density of 303 inhabitants per square kilometre. Its population growth rate over the decade 2001-2011 was 50.6 %. Ramanagara has a sex ratio of 976 females for every 1000 males, and a literacy rate of 69.2 %. male and female were 548,060 and 534,679 respectively. In 2001 census, Ramanagara had a population of 1,030,546 of which males were 524,694 and remaining 505,852 were females. Ramanagara District population constituted 1.77 percent of total Maharashtra population. In 2001 census, this figure for Ramanagara District was at 1.95 percent of Maharashtra population.

Abstract:
We sought to identify factors associated with being a reservoir district for wild poliovirus in Pakistan. Differences between reservoir and non-reservoir districts were identified using acute flaccid paralysis surveillance data, population census statistics and data from a survey of district health officials [DHOs]. Of the 11 poliovirus reservoir districts identified, population density was significantly higher [median 550 persons/km2] than the non-reservoirs [median 175 persons/km2]. DHOs from reservoir districts more often reported that planning was affected by refugees and they had more frequent DHO transfers compared with non-reservoir districts. Multivariate analysis confirmed that reservoirs more often had high population density and frequent DHO transfers. Assessment of district-level and management characteristics can supplement surveillance methods to further improve health programmes

Abstract:
Marriage and fertility are important topics in population studies, where individuals establish families through marriage and carry on life through childbearing within the family. Marriage and fertility microscopically measure the life course of individuals and macroscopically reflect the marriage and childbearing attitudes and marriage and childbearing culture of population groups. Marriage and fertility patterns consisting of marriage and fertility patterns are usually described and analyzed through indicators such as average age at first marriage and average age at first childbirth. data from the seventh population census of ouhai district in 2020 and fertility data from the health commission show that the average age at first marriage for women in ouhai district is 27.68 years old and the average age at first childbirth is 28.57 years old, while the average age at first marriage and the average age at first childbirth for women in ouhai district at the sixth population census in 2010 was 23.11 years old and The average age of first marriage and first childbirth of women in Ouhai District was 23.11 years old and 25.40 years old respectively in the sixth census in 2010, an increase of 4.57 years and 3.17 years respectively in 10 years. The delay of marriage and childbirth of Ouhai District population is more significant. In order to understand the willingness of Ouhai population to marry and give birth, and to serve the long-term balanced development of the population, at the request of Ouhai District Bureau of Statistics, the research group carried out a special study on "the delayed characteristics of marriage and childbirth of Ouhai population and its influencing factors". Through a comprehensive and in-depth analysis and study of the sixth and seventh national census data and health commission fertility-related data, (the number of people in the census long form quoted in the article refers to the number of sample survey, not the actual number. The total number of people in Ouhai District in the seventh census is 963,238, and the number of people in the long-form sampling survey is 93,713, with a sampling ratio of 9.73%; the total number of people in Ouhai District in the sixth census is 996,870, and the number of people in the long-form sampling survey is 94,732, with a sampling ratio of 9.50%. (The two census sampling ratio is slightly different) The survey results show that: the Ouhai District citizens delayed marriage and childbirth, the willingness to have children is not high, by the education level, occupational factors, such as the influence of the larger, need to promote the implementation of existing policies at the same time, the system to introduce education, childbirth, parenting, housing, medical and other supporting measures to promote residents to marry at the right age, improve the willingness of residents to have children.

AbstractWe present a descriptive study discussing the reasons why patients remained as in-patients within the psychiatric unit over the Christmas period. In over 50% of cases continuation of in-patient stay was necessitated by the severity of mental illness. However, a significant minority of patients were unable to leave because of either poor family support or reduced input from the community mental health services. There was some evidence of Christmas good will influencing admission policy with a significantly greater number of patients admitted with alcohol problems over the week before Christmas all of whom were lonely and expressed a preference to be in hospital.A more long term problem was also evident as an important minority of patients' hospital stay was unnecessarily prolonged because of unavailability of suitable community placements.

Abstract:
The period between the two census is estimated by scholars who are supportive of demography. In many areas of the world, where census cannot be done, population information is done on the basis of projection. Sometimes it happens that some part of the country gets disturbed due to some reason or census cannot be done due to security reasons, then in such a situation the population is obtained on the basis of population projection. Sometimes there are some figures of the population, which are needed only in the medium term. Projection of this type of data is also done on the basis of previous population. In case of lost, destroyed or stolen census data, the population is obtained on the basis of projected population. Population projection is essential for future policy planning. Prof. Hazanal (1971) says, "No matter how many shortcomings are in the projection, neither is it better to have some data or not." But we can compare our situation with that of a hunter who only consults a magician before going hunting in the unknown forest.

Abstract:
One the base on the statistical materials of the 1926 census author prepaid tables containing information on the number, ethnic composition and territorial location of the population of Mohyliv and Tulchyn districts as a whole and district centers of Mohyliv and Tulchyn. It has been proven that the Ukrainians composed the absolute majority among the total population of Mohyliv and Tulchyn district and a relative majority among the entire population of Mohyliv and Tulchyn. It was established that the absolute majority of the entire population, Ukrainians and ethnic minorities lived in districts outside the district centers, and the level of urbanization of the population remained rather insignificant. Therefore, the ethnic composition of the population of both of these districts could be quite significant differ from the ethnic composition of the population of both district centers. It was determined that the average of the entire population of Mohyliv and Tulchyn, the level of the share of Jews who mostly lived in cities, and the level of the share of other ethnic minorities was insignificant. Among the rural population of both of these districts, the absolute majority was Ukrainians, and the level territorial representation of ethnic minorities was minimal. That is, they were observed there are noticeable differences in the ethnic composition of the population of the district centers and districts of the East Podillia: Mohylivska and Tulchynska districts. This makes it possible to emphasize the fact that ethnic composition and territorial location of the population in the districts of Eastern Podillia quite noticeably differed in the urban and agrarian settlement environment. After all, the absolute majority of Ukrainians in rural areas among the entire population in rural areas changed to a relative majority among the entire population of urban environment. Instead, the opposite trends were observed in relation to ethnic groups minorities. Their share among the entire population in the agrarian environment was insignificant, however, among the total population in the urban environment, ethnic minorities constituted a much larger share compared to rural areas, where only dispersed residents lived individual representatives of ethnic minorities.

Abstract:
India has several socially disadvantaged communities and Scheduled Tribes are the most deprived ones. In Census 2011 the Government of India identified 10,42,81,034 citizens as Scheduled Tribes constituting 8.6% of the total population of the India (As per 2001 Census, it was 8.2% of the total population of India). In India, each state is practically equivalent to a country with its own specific socio-economic level, different ethnic groups, food habits, health infrastructures and communication facilities. Kodagu is one such district located on the eastern slopes of the Western Ghats in Karnataka and is home to many communities with diverse ethnic origins, and tribes such as the Yeravas, Kurubas and Kudiyas, who are of hunter-gatherers of forest origin. The present study focuses on the socio demographic and economic conditions of the Yerava, Jenu Kuruba and Malekudiya tribes. There have been changes especially in the social and economic life of these tribal people though, differences were found in their social, demographic and economic conditions.

Abstract:
Despite a sharp increase in female enrolment at various levels of education, the gender gap in education remains a topic of concern in developing countries. As per the 2011 Census enumeration, India has an overall literacy rate of 74 percent, with a gender differential of 16.30 percent. In the same Census, the respective literacy in the Kannauj district was 72.70 percent in total, with female literacy at 63.33 percent and male literacy at 80.90 percent. The result shows a significant gender gap in literacy levels, both at the national as well as district levels. This paper aims to map, block-wise gender disparity in literacy in the Kannauj district. This study is based on secondary data obtained from the Census of India, 2001-2011. Sopher’s Disparity Index (SDI) method has been used to compute the block-wise gender differential in literacy in the district. Outcomes of the study reveal that rural areas are more susceptible to gender differential in comparison to that urban areas. To overcome the gender gap in literacy and improve the literacy of the district, the study recommends the provision of an effective adult-literacy program in rural areas with more attention on school dropouts and females of the above thirty age group.

Abstract:
The authors show how data from the 2% Sample of Anonymised Records (SAR) can be combined with data from the Small Area Statistics (SAS) database to investigate the causes of the ecological fallacy in an Enumeration District (ED) level analysis. A range of census variables are examined in three ‘SAR districts’ (local authority districts with populations of 120 000 or more, or combinations of contiguous districts with smaller populations) in England. Results of comparable analyses from the 1986 Australian census are also given. The ecological fallacy arises when results from an analysis based on area-level aggregate statistics are incorrectly assumed to apply at the individual level. In general the results are different because individuals in the same area tend to have similar characteristics: a phenomenon known as within-area homogeneity. A statistical model is presented which allows for within-area homogeneity. This model may be used to explain the effects of aggregation on variances, covariances, and correlations. A methodology is introduced which allows aggregate-level statistics to be adjusted by using individual-level information on those variables that explain much of the within-area homogeneity. This methodology appears to be effective in adjusting census data analyses, and the results suggest that the SAR is a valuable source of adjustment information for aggregate data analyses from census and other sources.

Abstract:
Although reliable data for dog population is essential for designing an effective strategy for rabies vaccination, it is difficult to precisely estimate the dog population, especially the stray dogs. This study estimated the dog population by census and capture-recapture method (CR), characterized dog population, described practicality and feasibility, and estimated the rabies vaccination coverage. Ten urban and rural areas in Lumlukka District, Pathum Thani Province were randomly selected. Results showed that stray dog population from census was lower than CR estimates in both urban and rural areas. The census showed that the majority of dogs were confined owned dogs in the urban area (70%) and unconfined owned dogs in the rural area (96%). The stray dog population from census was 8.0% in the urban and 4.4% in the rural areas. Rabies vaccination coverage among dogs in the urban was 84% and in the rural was 65%. Although CR method used less time and people than census, it was more complicated. The census method might underestimate the number of stray dogs while the CR failed to include the confined owned dogs. Therefore, the census method could be a preferable method to collect data of owned dogs and CR could provide a better estimate of stray dog population. Both methods could be used to monitor the rabies control program and plan for effective strategy to eradicate rabies in Thailand.

The paper is a contribution to the debate about the theoretical aspects, the structure, and the competitiveness of Italian industrial districts. The work first examines the theoretical strand on industrial districts ranging from Marshall to Becattini, and focusing on the contemporary distrettualism of Giacomo Becattini, where the district is essentially a socio-economic construct and an important localized productive system. Furthermore, the paper offers an updated picture of the Italian industrial districts as they are represented in the 2011 Census by the National Statistics Institute. Finally, this study underlines the resilient competitive capacity of this typical form of industrial organization. Then, through empirical literature, it analyzes the Italian district companies, and their performance and success in foreign markets, especially with regard to “Made in Italy” products.

Abstract:
The article analyzes population data by federal districts, subjects and municipalities of the Russian Federation, obtained from two different official sources of Rosstat for close dates: data from the current population registration as of January 1, 2022 and data from the All-Russian Population Census of 2020, the control point of which was October 1, 2021. Since population size changes rather slowly, theoretically these data should not differ significantly. In fact, it has turned out that the population size across the country, according to various data, differs by more than 1% (by 1.6 million people in the direction of the census data). The lower the level of administrative division, the greater the differences. At the level of some municipalities of the Russian Federation, the differences make almost 2 times. Moreover, with approximately equal frequency, there are both municipalities where, according to the census, the population is greater than according to the current population registration, and with the opposite situation. The article identifies the administrative units of the country where the differences between the census data and the current population registration are the largest, and the causes of the differences in one direction or another. The largest “overweight” of the population in favor of the census was found in the municipalities of the Central Federal District (especially in the Moscow urban agglomeration), and the maximum “shortage” of the population compared to the current accounting data was in the Far Eastern and Siberian Federal Districts.

Abstract. This paper investigates district-wide social vulnerability to natural hazards in Nepal. Disasters such as earthquakes, floods, landslides, epidemics, and droughts are common in Nepal. Every year thousands of people are killed and huge economic and environmental losses occur in Nepal due to various natural hazards. Although natural hazards are well recognized, quantitative and qualitative social vulnerability mapping has not existed until now in Nepal. This study aims to quantify the social vulnerability on a local scale, considering all 75 districts using the available census. To perform district-level vulnerability mapping, 13 variables were selected and aggregated indexes were plotted in an ArcGIS environment. The sum of results shows that only 4 districts in Nepal have a very low social vulnerability index whereas 46 districts (61 %) are at moderate to high social vulnerability levels. Vulnerability mapping highlights the immediate need for decentralized frameworks to tackle natural hazards in district level; additionally, the results of this study can contribute to preparedness, planning and resource management, inter-district coordination, contingency planning, and public awareness efforts.

AbstractThe Sri Lankan Twin Registry began as a volunteer register in 1997. Previously, we have shown door-to-door surveys as the best option to build a population-based twin register of older, adult twins. Our aim was to build a population-based twin register in the Colombo district and use it for twin studies on common mental disorders. We aimed to identify a random sample of 4000 twins ascertained through the twin census. The Colombo district is divided into 13 divisional secretariat divisions (DSDs) and each division is further divided into Grama Niladari divisions administratively. Grama niladaris (GNs) are civil servants and visit each household in order to update the electoral register. GNs were used to do a census of twins while they updated the electoral register. The correlation between population density and twin rate among DSDs was .81, and between twin rate and the percentage of returned forms (from each DSD) was .74. We received 9648 forms notifying about twins and multiples. After removing the duplicates and information about twins who live in other districts, there were 17,406 multiples remaining. After incorporating twins and multiples from various other feasibility studies we now have 19,040 multiples with 8.46 twins per 1000 people in the Colombo district.

Abstract:
The study deals with the development of the number of Hungarians in Slovakia by districts based on the data of the 2011 and 2021 censuses. In a first approach, the data at the district level for ethnicity, mother tongue and 2nd ethnicity are examined. Then, based on combinations of these three ethnic indicators, the four types of Hungarian affiliation are analysed in relation to the proportion of Hungarians living in the districts.

Abstract:
When you teach a man, you only educate one person; when you educate a woman, you educate a whole nation. Literacy is one of the most crucial abilities for personal and cultural growth and development, thus critical to India's socio-economic development. Because of the rapid changes in society and the economy, the value of literacy has grown in the modern world. Literacy gender disparities are a barrier in almost every undeveloped and developing country across the globe. While India has made every effort to ensure sex disparity in literacy is brought down as overall literacy levels increase year after year, to be reported every time a census is conducted, several aspects demand attention to date. However, a significant disparity based on gender has been seen in India at 16.27 percent, as per the 2011 census. This paper endeavors to study these complex issues and their dynamics in light of trends in literacy emerging in Aligarh District at the block level over the census conducted in 2001 and 2011. An attempt has been made to analyze changes in literacy patterns, decadal growth rates, and the gender gap in literacy in Aligarh district. This study is entirely based on secondary data collected from different sources, i.e., District Statistical Handbooks, Census of India, and statistical abstract. The literacy rate in the Aligarh district is 67.85 percent, and the female literacy rate is only 61.27 percent compared to the male literacy rate, i.e., 73.73 percent. Statistical techniques used in the analysis are simple percentages and the location quotient technique used to analyze the concentration of female literacy. ArcGIS 10.5 software is used to prepare maps. In this study, it has been found that there is a wide gender disparity in Aligarh District, which is 12.46 percent, whereas it is highest in Tappal and lowest in Lodha at the block level.

Abstract:
This article examines the process of fragmentation to understand how the process of establishing new school districts results in high metropolitan‐area segregation. Using educational and census data, the article examines how the political process of creating new school districts in Jefferson County, Alabama, changed the nature of segregation. School segregation remained high from 1960 to 2005, but while in the late 1960s segregation of students was predominantly within districts, by 2005 segregation was primarily between districts. Over time, school district boundary lines gained meaning in terms of the characteristics of the district residents. In creating separate districts, local control has the same effect as earlier de jure laws of maintaining racial segregation in the Birmingham area, with few prospects for overcoming boundaries that divide students and opportunities along racial lines. Local control within the current judicial context will define separate populations and maintain or increase metropolitan segregation.

Abstract:
Exploring the homogeneity (or heterogeneity) at sub-national level is crucial as it associated with design, budget allocation and implementation of a research project. Since demographic and socioeconomic factors depict the first valuable insight of a community, it is imperative to explore the homogeneity within a country by considering these variables. Yet, the information on this aspect is scarce in Bangladesh. Therefore, the present study aimed to identify the district and district town specific homogeneity in Bangladesh. The data for this study were extracted from the most recent Housing and Population Census of the country, and the multivariate cluster analysis was employed to identify the natural groups or segments. We found that Bangladesh could be classified into three distinct clusters both at district and district town levels based on demographic and socioeconomic factors. The findings of this study would provide insights to the policymakers and researchers for designing and implementing community-based research initiatives, particularly in the area of public health and social science as well as market analysis research. The findings could also be helpful in the situation when the national representation of data is required with budget and time constraints.

Abstract:
The establishment of new school districts in predominantly White municipalities in the South is restructuring school and housing segregation in impacted countywide school systems. This article compares the contribution of school district boundaries to school and residential segregation in the Southern counties that experienced secession since 2000. Merging together several data sets, including Common Core of Data, census data, and shapefiles at multiple geographic scales, we measure segregation of public school students and the entire population over time. We show that school district secession is restructuring school segregation in the counties where secession is occurring, with segregation increasingly occurring because students attend different school districts. Additionally, in the most recent year of analysis, residents were increasingly stratified by race in different school districts. Segregation patterns differ substantially, however, depending on the history of secession in the county.

Abstract:
Census and other socio-economic survey data collected at household and settlement level are aggregated and results are presented for specific administrative units. The wide and increasing availability of census and socio-economic data, tools like GIS with an ease to use and advances in methodology has allowed increasing and refined GIS mapping of census variables. However, it is less emphasized that the result of analysis and presentation is always dependent on the unit of analysis. Data aggregation, choice of data classification method and spatial scale all have effect on mapping result. When administrative boundaries are restructured, it necessitates the aggregation of census data of one administrative level to another. In this context, the current paper explores the scale and zoning effect (changing boundary, changing number of units and data aggregation) on mapping census data. It explores the effect of four data classification methods at two spatial scales. Secondary data sources like local administrative boundary of Bajhang district and economically active population in agriculture is selected as representative census variable for mapping. GIS tool is applied for data mapping and analysis. The study found the higher calculated correlation value (0.88) for the restructured spatial units. The distribution of number of spatial units varied significantly between four data classification methods while plotted against the old boundary but there was not much variation in case of newly restructured boundary. The study found that zoning particularly, from smaller to larger units has blurred the spatial pattern visualization leading to a loss of the preferential information. The study concludes that the restructuring of administrative boundaries into larger unit has simplified the detail for spatial representation and has introduced additional generalization. For policy level analysis, use of data available at one level of the spatial unit when aggregated to higher level should be analyzed carefully using different data classification methods and visualization tools because scaled spatial representation matters in planning and policy aspect. It is meaningful to analyze data at different spatial scale to visualize and identify spatial variation.

Abstract:
Using 414,322 tweets drawn from 143,404 individual Twitter users located in all 435 U.S. congressional districts, this study employed big data and automated content analysis techniques to explore the degree to which socioeconomic status (SES), social capital potential (the degree to which a congressional district has the potential for interconnected citizen networks), and in-district partisan polarization were associated with incivility on Twitter during the 2012 presidential election. Broadly speaking, and with some exceptions, the results indicated that election oriented incivility on Twitter was highest in districts that had low SES indicators, low levels of social capital potential, and low levels of partisan polarity. In its sum, this study shows how large social data sets (i.e., the Census) can be combined with big data to explain social phenomena.

Abstract:
Census data for Zambia was used to estimate the distribution of wealth in Zambia by constructing the Wealth Index as a measure of socioeconomic status using Principal Component Analysis. The reliability of the index is observed from three fronts; coherence, robustness and validity in representing household socioeconomic status. Classifying the households across all quartiles is highly consistent and robust. The index’s performance in predicting the welfare distribution is analogous to established and most widely used methods from Demographic Health Surveys, as evidenced by similarities in the statistical distributions. Unlike other survey estimates, the index has been produced at the subnational level, such as district, enabling the classification of Zambia’s districts according to their socioeconomic status. The index can be used to predict other socioeconomic outcomes, such as education and health, via Small Area Estimation techniques and determine district-level resource allocation by the central government.

Abstract:
Census exercise is based on the notion that clear-cut data is at the center of a roadmap that enables planning, implementation, and long-term development. Because these objectives were not met, most census research in Nigeria has focused on the difficulties, problems, and politics underlying the falsification of census results. Surprisingly, none has articulated why a census is required for security and development. As a departure from the contentious debate enveloping the population, the paper examines the indices census has on the security and development of Nigeria. The cross-sectional survey design was adopted for the study using the proportionate stratified sampling in selecting 270 respondents that cut across three towns: Ado, Ikere, and Ikole, representing each senatorial district of Ekiti State. The questionnaire served as the instrument for data collection. Findings revealed mixed perceptions about the use of census for tackling security challenges, infrastructural planning, and developmental stride.

Abstract:
According to the first administrative division after the Second World War, the Vranje District (okrug) consisted of six counties (srez): Bosiljgradski, Masurički, Pčinjski, Poljanički, Preševski and Vranjski. The first systematic investigation of crimes during the occupation after the liberation was entrusted to the State Commission for the Investigation of the Crimes of the Occupiers and Their Abettors. This Commission was established in Jajce at the Second Session of AVNOJ. The paper statistically analyzes the victims in the Vranje District according to the perpetrators, geographical origin and manner of suffering. In addition to the victims, the paper also analyzes “bodily injuries” as well as “violations of personal freedom”. In the first census from 1945, 1,811 victims were recorded in the area of the Vranje District. The Bulgarian occupation formations were recorded as the biggest perpetrators of all crimes. Since this census was done superficially, the process was repeated at the beginning of 1946. In the repeated census 3,937 victims were recorded in the aforementioned area. The systematic census of war victims was initiated by the Federal Executive Council in 1964. Due to the passage of time and the ideological component, it is assumed that its scope was 56‒59% of the actual victims. In six municipalities, which previously formed the Vranje District, 3,506 victims of the war who lost their lives and 14,238 victims who survived the war were registered. Although useful for getting a general idea of the victims of the Second World War, we believe that both censuses of victims have significant shortcomings, primarily due to their ideological component. Nevertheless, the results of both censuses are an indispensable source for the quantification of war crimes on the territory of Yugoslavia.

Generally, new districts are formed to facilitate administrative expediency or ease of administrative connectivity in a much better way. Often it reduces the distance between the district headquarters and remote areas resulting in easy access to the district headquarters with investing less time and strain. Apparently, it becomes helpful to interact with the beneficiaries in implementing and monitoring the government schemes and programmes in the areas near the district headquarters and remote areas, which is essential for the overall development of a region. In the present study, a meso-level specific comparative analysis has been done at inter and intra district level on the basis of some selected socio-economic indicators (based on Census of India data sources) to understand the impact of reorganisation of the administrative boundaries on the development of Uttar and Dakshin Dinajpur, West Bengal, India.

This paper examines geographical determinants of communal conflicts in Indonesia. Data comes from the 2008 Village Potential Census (Podes) and official statistics which consist of communal conflict information across all Indonesia’s districts (N districts = 465). Results from spatial dependent model show that communal conflict to be spatially dependent through latent determinants, meaning that communal conflict clusters because of clustering of latent determinants within district. Rather than religious and ethnic heterogeneity, communal conflict is positively associated with poverty, economic inequality, elite capture, and weak capacity of districts to manage fiscal resources.

Over the past several decades, special districts have proliferated and become the most rapidly growing type of local governments in the U.S. This study provides an exploratory investigation of special district finance reliance from two aspects, including expenditure reliance of general–purpose governments on special districts’ service delivery and financing mode of special districts. Using financial data collected from the Bureau of Census, this study provides detailed descriptive analyses on temporal trends and geographical patterns of expenditure reliance and revenue financing mode for four service functions. From the perspective of expenditure reliance, this study shows that special districts have replaced the role of general–purpose governments. In terms of revenue modes, special districts tend to rely on user fees, equating payers and beneficiaries of services. Moreover, this study shows that on which revenue sources the districts rely the most vary by service function and geography.

Abstract:
Using census materials for studying social history of Russia in the 20th century has serious restrictions determined by the census form and by selective publication of the obtained results. Using census forms themselves, fragmentary preserved in local archives, partially solves this problem. The researcher has to turn to the census materials for studying some topics, which are not directly reflected in the census forms, due to limited social statistics on the Soviet society. The article is to clarify the possibility of using primary materials of the 1959 census, stored in the fond of the Regional Statistical Office from the State Archive of the Sverdlovsk Region, alongside with the published data, for studying urban family in Sverdlovsk. The study of the Russian urban family in the second half of the 20th century is important for assessing the consequences of demographic transition of the 1930s – 1980s and the degree of population structure deformation following the Great Patriotic War. Studying the Ural family is significant, as urbanization processes in the region during the said period proceeded extremely intensively. To systematize the information on the census forms, a database “Family of the city of Sverdlovsk, 1959” has been created, combining principles of individual and family registration. The database includes information from 1,200 forms for the Oktyabrsky district. Nearly 17 000 apartment census forms for other urban settlements of the region fall outside the scope of this analysis. Comparison with published data proves that the sample is representative in its most significant indicators. Significant deviations are recorded in the social composition of the population, reflecting specifics of a central district of a large city (dominance of employees, significant number of single-parent families, presumably recent migrants). Among other things, it has been established that most commonly families consisted of two and three persons; in a significant number of cases, the households were headed by young women. The obtained information permits to characterize the Sverdlovsk urban family in terms of the so-called second demographic transition, which significantly influenced family size, distribution of intra-familial roles, and strategies of matrimonial behavior. Given the undoubted scientific value of the primary census materials, discovery of other similar documentary complexes in the Russian archives should be an important direction of research.

Abstract:
Census data can be represented both as lists and as tabulations of household/individual attributes. List representation of Census data offers greater flexibility, as the exploration of interrelationships between population characteristics is limited only by the quality and scope of the data collected. Unfortunately, the released lists of household/individual attributes (Samples of Anonymised Records, SARs) are spatially referenced only to areas (single or merged districts) with populations of 120 000 or more, whereas released tabulations are available for units as small as single enumeration districts (Small Area Statistics, SAS). Intuitively, it should be possible to derive list-based estimates of enumeration district populations by combining information contained in the SAR and the SAS. In this paper we explore the range of solutions that could be adapted to this problem which, ultimately, is presented as a complex combinatorial optimisation problem. Various techniques of combinatorial optimisation are tested, and preliminary results from the best performing algorithm are evaluated. Through this process, the lack of suitable test statistics for the comparison of observed and expected tabulations of population data is highlighted.

Abstract:
The level of education and its response to different educational opportunities vary from one spatial unit to another depending on various factors like social, economic, cultural, and institutional. It is understood that certain regions acquire relative advancements over others in terms of human resource development and human capital formation. The key purpose of this research is to examine the intra-district disparities in primary education in Bankura District one of the districts of West Bengal. It ranks 11thamong the 19 districts of West Bengal (Human Development Report, 2007). Overall literacy rate of the district stands at 70.26% but the district scores low in terms of female literacy rates, which is 60.05%,whereas the male literacy rate is 80.05%, which is a huge gender literacy gap of 20%. There are also regional inequalities existing at block level. Kotulpur ranks first with a literacy rate of 78.01% while Saltora occupies the bottom position with literacy rate of just 61.45% (Census of India, 2011). The level of educational development is dependent on several factors—enrolment ratio, dropout and repetition rates, pupil-teacher ratio, habitations covered by educational institutions, space-student ratio, drinking water and sanitation facilities in school, etc. In this context, the present study aims at examining the issues of intra-district disparities in educational attainment with regard to various educational amenities of Bankura district, West Bengal. Ten attributes have been selected to examine the level of development in primary education. It is clear from the study that the level of development in eastern part of the district is relatively better in comparison to other regions. Economic backwardness and physical bottlenecks continue to be major issues in western blocks.

Abstract:
This article estimates the total fertility rate (TFR) for the overall population in major Indian states by employing Arriaga variation of the P/F ratio method and the relational Gompertz model. The article uses the 2011 Census data on average parity and the current fertility schedule. Estimation of TFRs at the state level by employing Arriaga variation of the P/F ratio method strongly corresponds with Sample Registration System (SRS) compared to those derived from the relational Gompertz model. Thus, Arriaga variation of the P/F ratio method was retained to estimate the Hindu–Muslim fertility differentials for 618 districts in India from all states except Jammu and Kashmir. Comparing the TFRs obtained from the analyses with indirect estimates of TFRs from the 2001 Census, the analysis reveals that the overall fertility transition in India has been steady during the last decade. Fertility transition has been underway for both Hindus and Muslims, at a varying pace, when compared to the state-level indirect estimates of the 2001 Census. Though the overall convergence of fertility between Hindus and Muslims has been underway, significant regional variations persist.

Abstract:
Census data generates information on total population count and its various socio-economic and demographic characteristics disaggregated by age and sex from national to provincial and down to district, tehsil and village level. The utility of these data is crucial for studying historical trends and for planning and formulating development programmes, especially for the recently devolved set up of administration. The next Population and Housing Census is likely to be carried out in 2008. The procedure of census data collection is lengthy and costly, and data compilation and its tabulation are subject to errors and inadequacies which have strong implications for policy formulation. Reporting errors during the data collection stage are also common, which need to be minimised...........................This Policy Viewpoint has been prepared by Naushin Mahmood, Ghulam Yasin Soomro, G. M. Arif, M. Framurz Khan Kiani, and Khalid Hameed Sheikh.

Abstract:
How did the 1918 influenza pandemic affect female labor force participation in India over the short run and the medium run? We use an event-study approach at the district level and four waves of decadal census data in order to answer this question. We find that districts most adversely affected by influenza mortality saw a temporary increase in female labor force participation in 1921, an increase that was concentrated in the service sector. We find suggestive evidence that distress labor supply by widows and rising wages help account for this result.
