Update from American Community Survey Data Users Group
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: 
  • press kit 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 includes the complete schedule with new planned release dates. 
  • The ACS Resource Hub flyer and 2020 ACS 1-Year Estimates: What You Need to Know flyer provide more information.
