Thanks to the efforts of Jeffrey Dunn & Jie Lin at the Connecticut State Data Center and Will Carnes and Josh Strunk at the UConn Libraries Map and Geographic Information Center – MAGIC, shapefiles are now available for the 2010 U.S. Census Redistricting (Public Law 94-171) dataset for Connecticut. These shapefiles incorporate the data and are available in both Connecticut State Plane NAD 83 and WGS 1984 projections. Included below is a listing of the geographies available for download in shapefile as well as spreadsheet formats.

Each of these shapefiles include FGDC metadata which defines each attribute and users can also download the spreadsheet data which includes a codebook for these attributes. To download these files visit the Connecticut State Data Center’s data download page at:
