in case you didn't hear about this; survey of Katrina evacuees in Houston area shelters:
"The Survey of Hurricane Katrina Evacuees is based on a sample of 680 randomly selected adults ages 18 years and older, staying in the Houston Reliant Park Complex (which included the Reliant Astrodome and the Reliant Center), the George R. Brown Convention Center, and five smaller Red Cross shelters in the greater Houston area. Interviews were conducted face-to-face September 10-12, 2005. The margin of error for overall results is plus or minus 4 percentage points.The survey was conducted and analyzed jointly by The Washington Post, the Kaiser Family Foundation, and the Harvard School of Public Health. Interviews were conducted by 28 professional, Houston-based interviewers under the supervision of staff from Kaiser and ICR/International Communications Research, and with input from The Post staff in Houston (from the press release)"
Full report is here:
Press release is here:
interestingly, there are no demographic data mentioned in the press release; the full report does contain these data, however. 93% of the respondentes identified themselves as Black...wouldn't that seem like something to be included in the press release?????
