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.
