Announcement: CAPS 2020 is (finally) available at MCDC

Just a quick note to those here that might not be on our mailing list. 

MCDC is pleased to announce the launch of the newest version of our popular CAPS (Circular Area Profiles) applications.

CAPS 2020 (https://mcdc.missouri.edu/applications/caps2020.html) is based on our new standard profiles, created earlier this month from the Demographic and Housing Characteristics (DHC) data from the 2020 decennial census, released in May 2023.

Much like the versions of CAPS based on previous decennial censuses, the new application reports key variables (with corresponding percents) from the 2020 DHC file.

Functionally, CAPS 2020 is very similar to the older CAPS applications, although we did a lot of code updates under the hood.

Please report any errors or other issues to me at riceg@missouri.edu.
