Consumer Expenditure Survey Summary Tables

The Consumer Expenditure Survey (CE) program consists of two surveys: the quarterly Interview survey and the annual Diary survey. Combined, these two surveys provide information on the buying habits of American consumers, including data on their expenditures, income, and consumer unit (families and single consumers) characteristics. The survey data are collected for the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) by the U.S. Census Bureau. The CE collects all on all spending components including food, housing, apparel and services, transportation, entertainment, and out-of-pocket health care costs. The CE tables are an easy-to-use tool for obtaining arts-related spending estimates. They feature several arts-related spending categories, including the following items: Spending on Admissions Plays, theater, opera, and concerts Movies, parks, and museums Spending on Reading Newspapers and magazines Books Digital book readers Spending on Other Arts-Related Items Musical instruments Photographic equipment Audio-visual equipment Toys, games, arts and crafts The CE is important because it is the only Federal survey to provide information on the complete range of consumers' expenditures and incomes, as well as the characteristics of those consumers. It is used by economic policymakers examining the impact of policy changes on economic groups, by the Census Bureau as the source of thresholds for the Supplemental Poverty Measure, by businesses and academic researchers studying consumers' spending habits and trends, by other Federal agencies, and, perhaps most importantly, to regularly revise the Consumer Price Index market basket of goods and services and their relative importance. The most recent data tables are for 2021 and include: 1) Detailed tables with the most granular level of expenditure data available, along with variances and percent reporting for each expenditure item, for all consumer units (listed as "Other" in the Download menu); and 2) Tables with calendar year aggregate shares by demographic characteristics that provide annual aggregate expenditures and shares across demographic groups (listed as "Excel" in the Download menu). Also, see Featured CE Tables and Economic News Releases sections on the CE home page for current data tables and news release. The 1980 through 2021 CE public-use microdata, including Interview Survey data, Diary Survey data, and paradata (information about the data collection process), are available on the CE website.

消费者支出调查（CE）项目由两个调查组成：季度访谈调查和年度日记调查。这两项调查的综合数据为美国消费者的购买习惯提供了信息，包括他们的支出、收入以及消费者单位（家庭和单身消费者）的特征。这些调查数据由美国人口普查局收集，用于美国劳工统计局（BLS）。CE项目收集了所有支出组成部分的数据，包括食品、住房、服装及服务、交通、娱乐以及自付医疗保健费用。CE表格是获取与艺术相关的支出估计的便捷工具，其中包含多个与艺术相关的支出类别，具体包括以下项目：门票支出、戏剧、剧院、歌剧和音乐会、电影、公园和博物馆；阅读支出、报纸和杂志、书籍、数字阅读器；其他与艺术相关的支出项目，包括音乐乐器、摄影设备、视听设备、玩具、游戏、手工艺等。CE项目的重要性在于，它是唯一提供关于消费者支出和收入完整范围以及消费者特征的联邦调查。它被用于考察政策变化对经济群体影响的政策制定者、作为补充贫困衡量标准阈值的来源的美国人口普查局、研究消费者支出习惯和趋势的企业和学术研究人员、其他联邦机构，以及最重要的是，用于定期修订消费者价格指数的商品和服务市场篮及其相对重要性的调整。最新的数据表格为2021年数据，包括：1）详细表格，包含可用的最细粒度的支出数据，以及每个支出项目的差异和报告百分比，适用于所有消费者单位（在下载菜单中列为“其他”）；2）按人口统计特征汇总的日历年份额表格，提供年度汇总支出和人口群体间的份额（在下载菜单中列为“Excel”）。此外，请参阅CE主页上的“特色CE表格”和“经济新闻发布”部分，以获取当前的数据表格和新闻发布。1980年至2021年的CE公共使用微观数据，包括访谈调查数据、日记调查数据和参数数据（关于数据收集过程的信息），可在CE网站上获取。
