Hello:
A colleague and I are working with the C2ER cost of living data (national
study) and wondered if anyone out there has a utility to merge it with other
datasets using FIPS. Any assistance would be great!
Here's an example of the C2ER geo codes:
CITY CODE STATE METRO/MICRO URBAN AREA AND STATE
01-11500-100 Alabama Anniston-Oxford-Jacksonville AL Metro
Anniston-Calhoun County AL
01-12220-125 Alabama Auburn-Opelika AL Metro
Auburn-Opelika AL
01-13820-200 Alabama Birmingham-Hoover AL Metro Birmingham AL
01-19460-235 Alabama Decatur AL Metro
Decatur-Hartselle AL
01-20020-250 Alabama Dothan AL Metro Dothan AL
