The impact of prisoner counts on federal and state funds
This URL used to contain a 1 page factsheet about how the Census Bureau practice of counting prisoners as residents not of their homes but of the prison town impacts state and federal funding streams. The information in that factsheet is rendered obsolete by the more sophisticated research in Prisoners of the Census: Electoral and Financial Consequences of Counting Prisoners Where They Go, Not Where They Come From [PDF] by Eric Lotke and Peter Wagner, published in the Pace Law Review Volume 24, Number 2, Spring 2004
