Has anyone used the ACS data on civilian employed/unemployed to report estimates of un/employment rates? I'd like to use ACS because the survey has so many more options for disaggregating data by civilian characteristics. My hesitation is that because the source differs from the official unemployment rates, using ACS will cause confusion. Are the ACS and BLS estimates generally similar? I'm specifically thinking of reporting state un/employment rates by educational attainment, if that helps. Thanks for any guidance.
