On Aug. 18, the Census Bureau will provide summary county- and tract-level information by state for a limited set of previously released operational quality metrics. The metrics will not be available for individual counties or tracts, but rather they provide the average rates (mean), median and standard deviations for the state's counties and tracts, respectively. On Aug. 25, the Census Bureau will provide item nonresponse rates for the population count, age or date of birth, race, and Hispanic origin questions. These rates will be available for the nation, 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. The Census Bureau will discuss each release in blog posts.
