Description

Income from other work - farm self-employment - 1996-2018

Unicon Corporation made the following notes about this variable:
In 1996+ the top, nonrecoded value is $25,000. ABOVE this, the individuals are grouped by sex, race/origin, and worker status. A mean income value is calculated within these groups and assigned to the individuals. The largest mean value is shown as the 'Top value'. See Appendix H.3 for details on average replacement values for earning fields in 1996 forward. In some years, the topcode flags are inconsistent with the actual data. See Appendix H.4 for details.

See our detailed explanations of these methods, topcodes, and replacement value and swap value thresholds for more information on disclosure avoidance measures in CPS income data.
