Household Pulse Survey (HPS): HPS is a rapid-response survey of adults ages ≥18 years led by the U.S. Census Bureau, in partnership with seven other federal statistical agencies, to measure household experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic. Detailed information on probability sampling using the U.S. Census Bureau’s Master Address File, questionnaires, response rates, and bias assessment is available on the Census Bureau website (https://www.census.gov/data/experimental-data-products/household-pulse-survey.html).

Data from adults ages ≥18 years and older are collected by a 20-minute online survey from randomly sampled households stratified by state and the top 15 metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs). Data are weighted to represent total persons ages 18 and older living within households and to mitigate possible bias that can result from non-responses and incomplete survey frame.
