I think it took me about four hours to do my 33 households. (to complete entire 477) This was converting six zip codes into seven census tracts, so I still don't see much advantage to the switch.
So the census tracts might change in 2012? Dang! So should we be saving the LAT/LON of the customer location, or something, to make it easier to re-code them in the future? I think the government owes us a free way to geo-code addresses in bulk. At least I don't need Excel anymore. On Mar 16, 2009, at 4:55 PM, David E.
