Problems concerning the use of census data to estimate levels of welfare recipiency in the United States are explored with particular reference to Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI). "This paper develops and presents a procedure to estimate AFDC and SSI receipt based on the correspondence between the recipients characteristics and the eligibility criteria for these programs. The research also assesses the accuracy of estimates of the number of persons receiving any kind of cash public assistance (the presently available measure) as well as the number receiving AFDC and SSI (the new measures presented here). The results indicate that census data provide very satisfactory assessments of levels of SSI usage and assessments of levels of AFDC usage that are adequate for some analytic purposes." (EXCERPT)
