Census Microdata for Eastern European Countries

Question

I have a grad student looking for Census micro data for eastern European countries ie: Hungary, Bulgaria, Ukraine, etc. Does anyone know where I might find this. So far all we could come up with was aggregate tables.

Answer

IPUMS is doing it, but have only recently received funding. They apparently hope to begin releasing microdata beginning in 2006:

If you are a member of ICPSR, you may obtain the following:

Central and Eastern Eurobarometers
World Values Survey -- Wave 4

Both of these contain several Eastern European countries.

Also the newly released European Social Survey, available from:
http://www.europeansocialsurvey.org

It includes data from: Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary, Slovenia
