I can't think of a way to shoehorn tract data into shapes that don't reflect it. You can get lot of information from 2020 blocks including detailed race/ethnicity and 18-over age breakouts. Maybe you could take the tracts that make up the bulk…
Juan:
Diana's recommendations are totally spot-on / correct. A county level tabulation on households by owner/renter tenure by race/ethnicity of householder by household income level, is just not (directly) available from the ACS.

I need to get small area data on children by race/ethnicity. Ideally I'd like to get the number of children in a zip code by race/ethnicity for any year 2010 or later. I'm having trouble finding data like this on data.census.gov. Alternatively, I could…
I was talking about the Census Reporter Topic pages, which are all listed here: https://censusreporter.org/topics/

Greetings from the U.S. Census Bureau’s Ethnicity and Ancestry Branch,
We are reaching out to you because of your organization’s interest in ancestry data from the American Community Survey (ACS). The ACS is an annual survey that collects population…
So many people have been asking me about it that I've made a 2020 block population file for the whole USA. In the interests of keeping the file sizes reasonable, these include population and HU totals only (not race / ethnicity), and only blocks (sumlevel…
Thanks Bryan! I'm only looking at state and US estimates for the general population as well as by race and ethnicity, so perhaps I could use a microdata file.
Hi, the big difference in the race estimates are likely due to the changes to the race and ethnicity questions in the 2020 ACS rather than the experimental weights. See https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/acs/technical-documentation/user-notes/2021-03.…
