2012 5yr Missing Block Group Tables

Joseph McMichael
over 10 years ago
Hi, I extracted 2012 and 2011 5yr data at the block group level from the ftp site for table B03002 - HISPANIC OR LATINO ORIGIN BY RACE.

The problem...estimates exist for 2011 but not 2012.

Has anyone else experienced this or do you know why?

Here' my check:
Just looking at California data downloaded from the ftp:
2011:
e20115ca0005000.txt
LOGRECNO 0023638
B03002e1 = 2451

2012: e20125ca0006000.txt
LOGRECNO 0023598
B03002e1 is blank.

Thanks for your time.

    I pulled up your table through the Summary File Retrieval Tool and got 2587 for 2012 LOGRECNO 0023598 (15000US060014001001) and verified the corresponding LOGRECNO and value from the 2011 table. So maybe you made an error importing the summary files? If you are sure the summary file was imported correctly you may want to let the Census Bureau know about the discrepancy.
