American Community Survey
The U.S. Census ACS data includes information about demographics, household composition, employment, commute patterns, and housing. Iggy currently relies on ACS data collected over the 5-year period 2015-2020. The primary advantage of using multi-year estimates is the increased statistical reliability for less populated areas and small population subgroups. Only census-designated boundaries (county, census_tract, and cbg) incorporate features from acs, as these are the levels at which ACS data is reported and provided.
