Jennifer,

Please see this previous thread on this topic:

We are running UrbanSim from 2000 to 2005 to create our 2005 households.

Hi,

We'd like to use 2005 as our model base year, but we're worried about
the problems this may cause during household synthesis. We have some
thoughts on scaling the Census 2000 data to approximate 2005 levels..
Has anyone else synthesized households for a non-Census year? Any advice?

Thanks,
Jen
