I am trying to find or calculate population density for all Places in the US. I can find the population for these in a table like B01001 but I'm not sure if the land area is available in any form through one of the published tables.
Final comment, if the area is updated you could use the newly released Tiger Line files for those that changed. They have a vintage as do the population estimates. Hope this is confusing enough:)
One…
True story. On the other hand, there is no pricing tab on Census Download pages. So there's that.
Thanks Andy. Unfortunately, I suspected as much. Does anyone know if this data is available from the 2020 Census on data.census.gov?
Can you use the TIGER/Line shapefiles?

These include land and water areas in their attribute tables. Unfortunately there is no national shapefile for places, only state-level.
