FRED Adds Survey of Household Economics and Decisionmaking (SHED) Data

Posted on June 10, 2026

FRED has added 85 data series from the Survey of Household Economics and Decisionmaking (SHED) reported by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

The survey measures the economic well-being of U.S. households and identifies potential risks to their finances. Survey topics include credit access and behaviors, savings, retirement, employment, economic fragility, and housing. The SHED is administered to respondents entirely online. Participants are selected to represent the overall population of U.S. adults 18 years old and older.

The survey has been fielded in the fall each year since 2013. Staff of the Federal Reserve Board write the survey questions in consultation with other Federal Reserve System staff, outside academics, and professional survey experts. More details are available here.
