DAVID S. JOHNSON
Chief, Housing and Household Economic Statistics Division

David S. Johnson became chief of the U.S. Census Bureau’s Housing and Household Economic Statistics Division in March 2006. The division compiles and analyzes data on the physical, social and financial characteristics of the nation’s housing, and on the socioeconomic characteristics of households, families and individuals.
 
Johnson was with the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) from 1990 to 2006, and had been responsible for all production, development and dissemination of the Consumer Price Index program.
 
While at BLS, he was involved in the Alternative Poverty Measurement program at the Census Bureau, co-authoring the first Experimental Poverty Measures report and assisted in many other Census Bureau reports. He was also active in the Interagency Technical Working Group to Improve the Measurement of Income and Poverty and the Federal Interagency Forum on Child and Family Statistics.

Johnson received his bachelor’s degree in mathematics and economics from the University of Puget Sound, earned a doctorate in economics from the University of Minnesota and has been an adjunct faculty member for Georgetown University’s Public Policy Institute.
