In this all-level course, you will learn the basics about the Decennial Census, the Redistricting Data Program, Public Law 94-171 redistricting data, geographic availability, and the legacy format. We then demonstrate how to set up a database, download and extract redistricting data in the legacy format, using 2018 Rhode Island data in Microsoft Access as an example. Redistricting data are released for the purpose of redrawing legislative and electoral district boundaries. These data are the first demographic and housing 2020 Decennial Census data available down to the block summary level geography.
