This may be of interest to some. -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: Resources for 2020 ACS Data Release Date: 30 Jul 2021 13:17:45 +0000 From: American Community Survey Data Users Group &lt;noreply(a)prb.org&gt; To: Ed Christopher &lt;edc(a)berwyned.com&gt; [Population Reference Bureau] Update from American Community Survey Data Users Group <https://acsdatacommunity.prb.org/> The Census Bureau announced yesterday that they will not be releasing their standard 2020 ACS 1-year data products in September as planned due to the impact of the pandemic on data quality. Instead, they will be releasing a set of experimental estimates from the 1-year data. They have created several resources to help data users prepare for this change: * A press kit <https://www.census.gov/newsroom/press-kits/2021/impact-pandemic-2020-acs-1-year.html> includes a PDF version of yesterday's webinar, background materials explaining what experimental data products are, and information about the Census Bureau’s statistical quality standards. A recording of the webinar should be available by late Monday. * A revised 2020 ACS release schedule <https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/acs/news/data-releases/2020/release-schedule.html> includes the complete schedule with new planned release dates. * The ACS Resource Hub <https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/acs/library/flyers/resource-hub.html> flyer and 2020 ACS 1-Year Estimates: What You Need to Know <https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/acs/library/flyers/flow-chart.html> flyer provide more information.
