@datageekB so so true.
For years, preparing #popests for MSP metro, we've used lagging #ACSdata for avg HH size. We just assumed this a variable that changes slowly🐢.
But we're working up 2022 set of pop ests and 🤦🏽♂️WHOA! realizing avg HH size has crashed... nationwide! https://twitter.com/MetroGram/status/1661746576308727811
more on how Census Bureau recategorizes people's race based on Big Brother's understanding of how you 👉🏽should👈🏽 have answered the question:

*NEW* from Census Bureau on changes to privacy protections for the American Community Survey
"We’ve heard from a number of data users lately who have questions...
...
Our current assessment is that the science does not yet exist to comprehensively implement a formally private solution for the ACS. We expect a multiyear development period, including data user review and feedback, that will extend beyond 2025."

Since there are so many new folks, it's time for a re- #introduction
My background is in regional planning & demography.
(And, briefly, econ.)
I geek out about #data (especially #census data) and evidence-based policymaking (especially for social equity, public health, and environmental justice).
I over-use parentheses.
I'd rather be outside.
