New resources are now available to help you access and use 2020 Census data.

Census Bureau Delivers 2020 Census Redistricting Data in Easier-to-Use Format

The U.S. Census Bureau today released the 2020 Census Redistricting Data (Public Law 94-171) Summary File to states and the public in an easier-to-use format.

These data are now available on data.census.gov. They are identical to those released Aug. 12 on the Census Bureau's FTP site and in various data visualizations.  

The Census Bureau has also delivered to states an easy-to-use toolkit of DVDs and flash drives with integrated browsing software to use in redrawing their congressional and state legislative district boundaries.

Topics in both formats include 2020 Census population counts by race, Hispanic origin, voting age and housing unit data for counties, places, census tracts and blocks.

"We are excited to be able to provide these data to the public in a format that's easier to use," said acting Census Bureau Director Ron Jarmin.

Data users can now access redistricting data with demographic information for cities and towns without downloading the FTP files.
