I’ve loved being part of the Census Tree project!! New NBER working paper out today demonstrates some of the great findings available in this rich dataset!
This work is made possible by the Census Tree, which Joe Price, Adrian Haws, Haley Wilbert, and I worked to create (with many other contributors at the BYU Record Linking Lab and at Notre Dame). Find out how we did it and access the data for yourself at censustree.org!
Out in @nber.bsky.social today, "Family Trees and Falling Apples: Historical Intergenerational Mobility Estimates for Women and Men," from our own @kaseybuckles.bsky.social and graduate student Haley Wilbert, along with Joe Price and Zach Ward. www.nber.org/papers/w31918
In our new NBER WP, we estimate historical intergenerational mobility for men **and women** using hundreds of millions of census-to-census links from the Census Tree. 🧵 👇https://www.nber.org/papers/w31918
