Tobacco Use Supplement to the Current Population Survey
The Tobacco Use Supplement to the Current Population Survey is an NCI-sponsored survey of tobacco use that has been administered as part of the US Census Bureau's Current Population Survey. The TUS-CPS is a key source of national and 
state level data on smoking and other tobacco use in the US household population because it uses a large, nationally representative sample that contains information on about 240,000 individuals within a given survey period. These data can be used by researchers to monitor progress in the control of tobacco use, conduct tobacco-related research, and evaluate tobacco control programs.
Currently available data files (for 1992-1993, 1995-1996, 1998-1999, 2000, 2001-2002, 2003, and 2006-07) can be used to track trends in tobacco use over time. Because of the large sample size for most survey items, analyses can be done at either the national or state levels, and in some cases, for areas smaller than the state level.
