The Survey of Household Economics and Decisionmaking (SHED) measures the economic well-being of U.S. households and identifies potential risks to their finances. The survey includes modules on a range of topics including credit access and behaviors, savings, retirement, employment, economic fragility, and housing. The SHED was administered to respondents entirely online. Weighted SHED samples are representative of U.S. adults age 18 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.
