The only major data release from the 2020 census so far is the Redistricting Data, which includes data for small areas, including tracts, block groups, and blocks. This release doesn't include any data on sex, detailed age groups, or household relationships…
Hi Troy! Thanks for considering tidycensus. One advantage of going the R / tidycensus route is that Matt and I have built tooling to help with some of the more challenging aspects of working with PUMS data, such as getting replicate weights / calculating…
Dear Steve

I agree Geocorr is a great resource for this, but I'd strongly recommend against a simple 116th to 118th crosswalk if you can avoid that. Instead, I'd crosswalk from smaller units to 118th CDs... blocks, block groups, tracts, county subdivisions... whatever…

I’ve recently identified an unusual discrepancy in city population values between ACS tables and would be grateful for anyone's expertise in examining this issue. I’ve summarized the problem below.
We are interested in the total population…
