ACCOMPLISHMENTS<br />
COMPLETE COUNT COMMITTEE<br />
A major component of Census 2000 on our area has been promoting this activity to the<br />
residents of <strong>Hamilton</strong> <strong>County</strong>. In an effort to improve upon the success of the 1990 Census<br />
in our region, our office revived the Cincinnati/<strong>Hamilton</strong> <strong>County</strong> Complete Count Committee<br />
for the 2000 Census. Comprised of leaders from businesses, local governments,<br />
neighborhoods, educational institution, non-profit organizations, and the media, this<br />
committee has worked diligently during the past months ot inform residents as to the<br />
importance of the Census and to encourage their participation. The committee is chaired by<br />
<strong>Hamilton</strong> <strong>County</strong> Commissioner Tom Neyer, Jr. and Cincinnati Mayor Charlie Luken. The<br />
<strong>Hamilton</strong> <strong>County</strong> Regional <strong>Planning</strong> Commission has provided staff support for the over 110<br />
members of the organization. It is anticipated that the efforts of this organization and our<br />
office will ensure that the 2000 Census generates the most reflective snapshot of our<br />
community.<br />
MIGRATION REPORT<br />
The Data Products section worked with a consultant, Christine Nolan (now a member of RPC<br />
planning staff) to produce a report describing population migration in and out of <strong>Hamilton</strong><br />
<strong>County</strong>, <strong>Ohio</strong> between 1984 and 1997. The report is entitled, “Spreading Out: The March to<br />
the Suburbs,” and it is one of a series of comprehensive planning reports being produced by<br />
the RPC. Based on IRS migration data, the report examines migration patterns between<br />
<strong>Hamilton</strong> <strong>County</strong> and other CMSA counties, the State of <strong>Ohio</strong>, U.S. Census regions, and<br />
other metropolitan areas. Copies of the report may be obtained by calling 513-946-4452.<br />
