important source of data for informing
solutions to digital inclusion and other
internet-related public policy
challenges. This long-running survey of
individuals and households covers a
range of topics related to digital
inclusion and other internet policy
issues, including the adoption of
different types of devices and internet
access technologies, locations of
internet use, online activities, and
challenges preventing some Americans
from taking full advantage of the
internet. The survey is administered as
a periodic supplement to the Current
Population Survey (CPS), a monthly
survey that includes approximately
50,000 households across all fifty states
and the District of Columbia. The CPS
is the source of certain national labor
force statistics, including the
unemployment rate. The Census Bureau
uses a combination of in-person and live
telephone interviews to gather data on
every individual living in each surveyed
household, including both demographic
and labor force information. By
contracting with the Census Bureau to
field the NTIA internet Use Survey as a
CPS Supplement, NTIA benefits from
the CPS’s existing infrastructure and
sophisticated design, as well as the
Census Bureau’s considerable expertise.
The main goal of the NTIA internet
Use Survey is to inform evidence-based
analysis and development of internet
policy generally, and particularly to
support solutions that increase digital
inclusion and bridge the digital divide.
NTIA staff use the resulting data
internally and in publications to help
inform policymakers; relevant NTIA
publications can be found at https://
www.ntia.gov/data. Additionally, much
of the value of the NTIA internet Use
Survey comes from research and
analysis performed by members of the
public. The academic studies and other
work produced externally using NTIA
internet Use Survey datasets, which are
publicly released following Census
Bureau measures to protect respondent
confidentiality, contribute substantially
to the state of knowledge in internet
policy and further advance discourse
among policymakers, researchers, and
advocates.
Over the last 25 years, NTIA has
continually sought to update the
questions asked on the NTIA internet
Use Survey as the technologies
Americans use to communicate, learn,
work, and participate in the digital
economy—and the terms used to
describe those technologies—evolve,
and as new policy challenges emerge.
NTIA and many external data users also
value the ability to track changes in
internet use and related metrics over
