![]() See PL-94-171 Demographic Profile Charts for state-level and selected county-level population by race and age charts. Nationwide dataset of block-level data extracted from PL94-171
file 2000 census. Download state-by-state data: Notes: Population field names generally follow Maptitude nomenclature.
The files are in a comma-delimited format. Field names are in
the first row. The field labeled "Code" can be joined to a
similar field created when building block-level TIGER files
using Maptitude or other geographic information system software
packages. PL94 -171 fields showing detail for 3+ races are
excluded. A separate calculation for the Office of Management
and Budget/DOJ minority definition for election plans and civil
rights enforcement is included (field names containing "DOJ") :
The Department of Justice allocates any multiple-race census response that included white and one of the five other race categories to the minority race listed in the response. The DOJ minority population figures include persons who identified themselves as (1) a single-race minority, (2) white plus one other race, (3) multiple-race (where more than one minority race is listed), or (4) Hispanic. This definition is in accordance with Department of Justice policy pursuant to Part II of OMB Bulletin 00-02.

A few geography fields were deleted, but the remaining geography field
names were left unchanged. Many of the more obscure geography fields are
either left blank or filed with 9's by the Census Bureau.
So while this is not the complete PL94 block-level dataset, it should be
enough for most purposes. Population totals for higher levels of
geography can be calculated using GIS or database software from these
block-level files.
These files are provided on an
"as is" basis. There is no guarantee that the data files are error-free. All states were run using the same query and extraction
module in MS Access2002. Since
March 2001, FairData's PL94-171 files have been used
extensively in 35 states with no reported errors.
