Jason:
We have put together the Census redistricting data and the 2010 block
data
for some key variables. Drop me an e-mail and I'll give you the access
code
to our FTP site so that you can download most states (including Ohio).
There are two types of files there- PDF files by state that have
county-level totals of a couple of key 2010 Census totals and zipped
2010
Census Block shape files. The block files have a naming convention like
Census2010-XX-Blocks.zip where XX would be a two letter designation of
the
state.
The Census 2010 redistricting data variables that were joined to the
TIGER
2010 Block data are defined as follows:
* POPTOTAL- total population (permanent population + group
quarters population)
* HHTOTAL- total dwelling units (occupied + seasonal + vacant)
* HHOCC- permanently occupied dwelling units (total less
seasonal
and vacant)
* HHVAC- not permanently occupied dwelling units (vacant +
seasonal)
* POPOCDU- total population (permanent + group quarters) /
permanent occupied dwelling units
* HGHFLAG- record has a value if the number of
persons/occupied
dwelling is greater than 5 (look for group quarters here)
* LOWFLAG- record has a value if the number of
persons/occupied
dwelling units is less than 1 (should never happen)
* PCTPRMOCC- percent of dwelling units occupied by permanent
residents
* POP1WHT- permanent + group quarters population reporting one
race that is "white"
* POP1BLK- permanent + group quarters population reporting one
race that is "black"
* POP1NAMR- permanent + group quarters population reporting
one
race that is "Native American" or similar
* POPOTHR- permanent + group quarters population reporting
some
other racial composition (2+ races, Asian, etc.)
* POPLATIN- permanent + group quarters population reporting to
be
of Hispanic descent/affinity
* POPNLATN- permanent + group quarters population NOT
reporting
to be of Hispanic descent/affinity
* PCTBLACK- percent of permanent + group quarters population
reporting to be a single race as "black"
* PCTLATIN- percent of permanent + group quarters population
reporting to be a single descent as Hispanic
* POPOVR18- permanent + group quarters population reporting to
18+
years of age
* POPUDR18- permanent + group quarters population reporting to
under 18 years of age
We have processed states where requests have come in or where we know
folks
that might benefit from the data. If there is a state or a variable of
interest that is missing let us know and we will do our best to
accommodate.
For technical documentation on the data that are available, see

Do you have SAS in your shop?
I can provide you my SAS code for loading, compiling and merging the
Redistricting, the AGQ, and the DPSF.
Can't offer any help on the Access. Good luck.

Subject: [CTPP] Question on 2010 Census data and linking to the Access
file
Hello all
I was wondering if anyone had a chance to figure out how to import the
2010
Redistricting data or the new 2010 demographic profile information into
the
Access files on the http://www2.census.gov/census_2010/ , under
http://www2.census.gov/census_2010/01-Redistricting_File--PL_94-171/ and
http://www2.census.gov/census_2010/03-Demographic_Profile/ . I have been
confused about this process myself. Does anyone know of any good guides
to
help? Any ideas or suggestions? I have been using the new American
FactFinder 2 too, but that has been a slow and confusing process too.
Thank you
Jason
