Census Bureau Ships Local 2010 Census Data to Connecticut

Today (Tuesday March 8, 2011), the Census Bureau shipped local 2010 Census data to the governor and leadership of the state legislature in Connecticut. After confirmation of receipt, usually within 24 hours of shipment, the Census Bureau will issue a news release with five custom tables of data for the state. Wednesday’s release is expected around 2 p.m. EST. At that time, the full set of data will be available via FTP download at http://www2.census.gov/census_2010/01-Redistricting_File–PL_94-171/. Within 24 hours after release, the data will be posted on the Census Bureau’s new American FactFinder site http://factfinder2.census.gov.

The data will include summaries of:

  • Population totals
  • Race
  • Hispanic origin
  • Voting age

Data will be available for multiple geographies within the state, such as census blocks, tracts, voting districts, cities, counties and school districts.
