Census Reporter is having performance issues, currently aggravated by too much web crawling. We're working on fending of the crawlers so that we can get back to assessing the performance issues (while working day jobs).
We apologize for the inconvenience.
🗣Census Reporter is updated with the recently released 2017-2021 American Community Survey data.
🎉💖 Thanks once again to @iandees, who volunteers his time to run our data updates (and watch over our servers).

We’ll do your community too if you can give us a map, or maybe we already have — visit censusreporter.org/2020/ to see what’s available, or to make a request

Do people who grow up in your town tend to stick around? When young adults move in, where are they coming from?
Census migration data can answer those questions, and this story recipe walks you through using that data for your own local stories. source.opennews.org/articles…

NEW post: The Census Bureau’s own research on data quality has concluded that the national total in the 2020 census was largely accurate, but has estimated miscounts for some states and demographic groups. pewresearch.org/fact-tank/20…
Good training from the Census Bureau, “Data on a Deadline for Journalists“

(and we’re not just saying that because they feature Census Reporter around 26:30 but thanks for featuring Census Reporter!)
After we sent this, similar but different errors cropped up especially for profile pages for tracts and block groups.
We believe that those have been fixed and even when data is not available, the page should no longer error.
Let us know if you find others...
With yesterday’s update, many pages were erroring b/c of “missing data” related to the lack of ACS 2020 1-year data. We have implemented a fix. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Please remember when reporting errors to include the URL of the page where you saw the error!
⚡️ Census Reporter has been updated with the 2020 5-year ACS data which was released last week
🙏 As ever, we are deeply grateful to @iandees for captaining our data and server operations
