| | | | Summary: | Public Law 94-171, enacted in 1975, directs the United
States Census Bureau to make special preparations to provide
redistricting data needed by the 50 states. It specifies that within
one year following the Census Day (i.e., for Census 2000 by April 1,
2001), the Census Bureau must send the governor and legislature in
each state the data they need to redraw districts for the United
States Congress and state legislatures. These files provide data in a
hierarchical sequence down to the block level (state, county, voting
district/remainder, county subdivision, place/remainder, census tract,
block group, block). The collection contains four tables: (1) a count
of all persons by race (Table PL1), (2) a count of Hispanic or Latino
and a count of not Hispanic or Latino by race of all persons (Table
PL2), (3) a count of the population 18 years and older by race (Table
PL3),and (4) a count of Hispanic or Latino and a count of not Hispanic
or Latino by race for the population 18 years and older (Table PL4). |

| | | Data Collection Notes: | (1) The data are provided in three segments (files)
per state: the Geographic Header, Tables PL1 and
PL2, and Tables PL3 and PL4. The Geographic Header segments are
fixed-format ASCII text files, while the Table segments are
comma-delimited ASCII files. The Geographic Header has 80 variables
and the Table segments have 149 variables each, for a total of 378
variables when the segments are combined. (2) The SAS Merge Program
(Part 90) is provided, but not supported, by the United States Census
Bureau. Users will need to merge the three segments for each state
into a SAS dataset to use the data effectively. (3) The data file
numbers are not consecutive. They correspond to FIPS codes for
states. (4) The codebook and record layout are provided by the
principal investigator as Portable Document Format (PDF) files. The
PDF file format was developed by Adobe Systems Incorporated and can be
accessed using PDF reader software, such as the Adobe Acrobat
Reader. Information on how to obtain a copy of the Acrobat Reader is
provided on the ICPSR Web site. |
