Official US 2010 Census Results

Does anyone happen to know whether the Census Bureau has/will update past yearly estimates based on the new 2010 census?
Thanks,
Dave

113th CD demographics have been released, though doesn't appear to list VAP or white non-hispanics.

Those are both cross tabs from race, hispanic and age. The easy stats don't list them, just the main categories. This is also only from the 1-year sample so the statistics get weaker as one tries to cross tabulate different questions.

The Census Bureau releases ACS data based on areas as of January 1 of the last year of the collection period.   The 1-year 2011 data was released in September 2012, and the 3-year data was released in the following months.

Presumably the 2012 release will have data for the congressional districts for the 113rd Congress.  The raw ACS data has street addresses and block numbers, so tabulation should be
"trivial".  The minimum sampling rate (one year) is 1.5%, so the estimates for CD-sized objects entities should be pretty good.

The fertility rate is the number of children an average woman bears over the course of her life. The replacement rate is 2.1. If the average woman has more children than that, population grows. Fewer, and it contracts. Today, America's total fertility rate is 1.93, according to the latest figures from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention; it hasn't been above the replacement rate in a sustained way since the early 1970s.




The 2020 census might show an even smaller growth figure than the historically low 2010 census.

You've forgotten to take immigration or increased life spans into account. Americans can have zero children but still see increased population.

I.E., that data isn't available yet? When is it expected to come? Interesting since some states had NHW and VAP data available before the districts took effect.

True... but we do also know that immigration was high in the first two-thirds of the last decade, and has been much slower since about 2008, with no sign of it increasing. That would reinforce the declining birth rate trend.

Any State under the imposition of Section 5 of the VRA will be expected to include that information with their submissions to the USDOJ in Washington, DC.

The redistricting data released in Spring of 2011 included population counts by race, hispanicity, and for over 18 to the census block level.  Since any software would be working at the block level, it would be easy to tabulate.

The Census Bureau has released the 113rd Congress to block number equivalency files, so you could calculate VAP by race and hispanicity.

The 2010 Census did not ask a citizenship question, but the Texas Legislative Council was able to generate CVAP from the ACS data, and they also produce election results by proposed district (they have to allocate precinct election results as necessary to do so).

The Census Bureau will also do a custom tabulation for a fee (minimum price $3000).  The Census Bureau has to switch the ACS over from the 2000 Census Geography to the 2010 Census Geography (block definitions and numbers are not identical).  To conduct the 2010 Census they must have had to conform their master list of addresses to the 2010 census geography, and must have an ongoing program to make corrections.

appears to include NHW VAP, but doesn't match up with DailyKos's numbers.
