METHODOLOGY
Pinpoint Demographics uses regression analysis to estimate the most accurate and timely current year population
demographics and consumer spending.
The following steps were used in calculating the estimates in the Population Demographics database:
1) 1990 and 2009 zip codes data from the U.S. Census were matched. Where zip codes were not able to be
matched, data from neighboring zip codes were considered in adjusting data.
2) Regression analysis was used on 1990 and 2000 data to calculate the estimates for the current year.
3) The most recent U.S. Census 3-year county growth rates are applied to each zip code population demographic.
4) Where the percent change of data from 2000 to current year were too low or too high from an acceptable
range, data from neighboring zip codes were considered in adjusting data.
5) Population Density catgories and Population Segments categories were added according to the definitions in
the U.S. Population Demographics database.
The following steps were used in calculating the estimates in the Consumer Spending database:
1) The Consumer Spending database were calculated based on the U.S. Census' "Consumer Expenditure
Survey" and Pinpoint Demographics' U.S. Population Demographics database.
2) Consumer Spending categories are based on the family income categories, such as $25,000 to $49,999
income each year.
Consumer Spending Database Categories
The Consumer Spending Database has a hierarchy ranking of categories, include the Main category and
three sub-categories, notated 1), 2) and 3). The following example describes the hierarchy:
Main Category: Food
Sub-category 1): Food-at-home
Sub-category 2): Cereals and bakery products
Sub-category 3): Cereals and cereal products
Sub-category 3): Bakery products
Sub-categories 3) will add up to sub-category 2). Sub-categories 2) will add up to sub-category 1), etc.
The following steps were used in calculating the estimates in the Retail & Services databases:
1) These databases are based on the most recent U.S. Census County Business Patterns establishment by zip
code.
2) Projections by establishments, industry sales and employment are based on the Barnes Reports databases by
industry.
