• Pulling specific variables from ACS using API

    Is there a way to define in R which variables to pull from an ACS data set using API? Below is the code I use to pull the entire table for B01003 for all US zip codes, but this table only has Estimate and MOE, so it's not too large. But for other tables…

  • 2014-2018 zipcodes?

    I'm trying to locate 2014-2018 Gini index values by zip code. I was able to find this information in American Fact Finder back in Feb/March, but I'm not having any luck with the new data.census.gov site. I've been using the Gini index data table (B19083…

  • Blanks in Geocorr2022 output

    Hello ,

    Probably asking an obvious question but created an output with Geocorr2022 to get population allocation factors between zip codes and upper- and lower-chamber state legislative districts. I noticed I got 3 rows with blank ZCTA values…

  • RE: Block Group level poverty by race data: I cannot find it.

  • RE: ZCTAs in 2006-2010?

    Bernie,

    Not sure why the ZCTAs were not available in 2006-2010 but we had lots of requests for them, so I made some quasi-zip code data based on a census tract to zip code crosswalk:

    This isn't really necessary…
  • RE: trying to find the population of Van Nuys, CA

    The downside is that the "official" city statistics are based on 2010 Census numbers.
    But the "StatisticalAtlas" site is not that all up-to-date either.  A quick look at their population count for the 91405 zip code (54,356) shows their…
