This release is in accordance with the "72-Year Rule" (92 Stat. 915; Public Law 95-416; October 5, 1978) that states that after 72 years, NARA is responsible for releasing to the public decennial census records. More information will be made available Census Bureau's 1950 Census press kit. (Scheduled for release April 1, 2022.)

2020 Census

American Community Survey Blog Series — Census Bureau experts will discuss how the pandemic affected data collection for the American Community Survey in 2020 and how the pandemic affects other aspects of the survey. (Scheduled for release periodically throughout 2022.)

Demographic 

Living Arrangements of Children — The U.S. Census Bureau will be releasing a new report, Living Arrangements of Children. This report uses data from​ the 2008 and 2018 American Community Surveys, the 2014 Survey of Income and Program Participation, and the 2007 and 2019 Current Population Surveys' Annual Social and Economic Supplement to ​examine the living arrangements of children in the nation. More information on the living arrangements of children can be found on our Families and Living Arrangements webpage. (Scheduled for release Feb. 3.) 

Income Sources of Older Households — The U.S. Census Bureau will release a new report that examines older households' sources of income, the amounts of this income and how much each source of income contributes to total income. The report focuses on six types of income (Social Security, Supplementary Security Income (SSI), Pensions and retirement accounts, Property income, Earnings, Other income). The analysis uses data from the 2018 Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP), which asked respondents about their income during 2017, and focuses on households where a person aged 65 or over is the householder. Household income is adjusted to account for varying household size and composition. This report also presents estimates of personal income for those aged 65 and over who are living with their adult children. (Scheduled for release Feb. 15.)

Educational Attainment in the United States: 2021 — This report and table package provide Current Population Survey statistics on educational attainment by demographic characteristics such as age, sex, race and Hispanic origin. It also includes detailed information, including charts and graphs, on years of school completed and shows the level of education adults have completed. (Scheduled for release in February.)

2020 Presidential Election Voting Report — The U.S. Census Bureau will release a report on the "Voting and Registration in the Election of November 2020." The report builds on detailed tables released earlier this year. It is based on data from the 2020 Current Population Survey (CPS) Voting and Registration Supplement, and highlights patterns in voter turnout over time among the citizen voting-age population. (Tentatively scheduled for release in February.)

School Pulse Panel — The U.S. Census Bureau has begun collecting data from schools for the new School Pulse Panel (SPP) as part of efforts to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on students and staff in U.S. public schools. The SPP is sponsored by the National Center for Education Statistics and collects data on instructional modes offered, enrollment counts, learning loss mitigation strategies, safety and health strategies, use of technology and more. To learn more, visit the School Pulse Panel page.

Household Pulse Survey — The experimental Household Pulse Survey is an effort by the U.S. Census Bureau and other federal statistical agencies to document temporal trends in how individuals are experiencing business curtailment and closures, stay-at-home orders, school closures, changes in spending patterns, and other abrupt and significant changes to American life. The Household Pulse shifted from biweekly to monthly data collection in Phase 3.3 as current changes in data no longer warrant biweekly data collection and we work to reduce respondent burden. Data collection for Phase 3.3 began December 1. Data will be released Dec. 22, Jan. 19, and Feb. 16. The public-use files for the phase are scheduled for release Jan. 5, Feb. 2, and March 2.

Initial Impact of COVID-19 on Travel, Tourism, Outdoor Recreation Varied Widely Across States and Demographic Groups — The U.S. Census Bureau and the Local Employment Dynamics (LED) Partnership in collaboration with the Council for Community and Economic Research (C2ER) and the Labor Market Information (LMI) Institute is giving a presentation called "Initial Impact of COVID-19 on Travel, Tourism, Outdoor Recreation Varied Widely Across States and Demographic Groups." This presentation shows how the Census Bureau's Quarterly Workforce Indicators (QWI) was used to examine how workers employed in travel, tourism, and outdoor recreation across the country were affected by the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Data indicate that states with the largest COVID-19 outbreaks (northeastern and mid-Atlantic states) and those with the largest share of tourism jobs (Nevada and Hawaii) were disproportionately impacted at the start of the pandemic. (Scheduled for release Feb. 16.) 

2022 LED Partnership Virtual Workshop — Registration is now open for the 2022 LED Partnership Virtual Workshop on April 5-7, 2022. This year's theme is, "Making Sense of Data in a New Era." The work of state Labor Market Information (LMI) partners, other data users and U.S. Census researchers will be highlighted through plenary sessions. Space is limited, so early registration is encouraged.

Small Business Pulse Survey Phase 7 — The Small Business Pulse Survey (SBPS) is a high-frequency survey that measures the effect of changing business conditions during the coronavirus pandemic, as well as other major events such as hurricanes, on our nation's small businesses. SBPS complements existing Census Bureau data by providing detailed, near real-time information on the challenges faced by small businesses. The survey includes information on operations, receipt of assistance, workplace COVID-19 vaccinations and testing requirements, supply-chain disruptions, measures of overall well-being, and expectations for recovery. Weekly data downloads and visualizations are available at the national, sector, state, and metropolitan statistical area (MSA) level for the 50 largest MSAs and Puerto Rico. Sub-sector and state-by-sector data are also available for download. Data collection for Phase 7 began November 15 and data were released weekly from November 24 through January 20, 2022.  Phase 8 is tentatively scheduled for mid-February.

Facts for Features 

Irish-American Heritage Month — Congress designated March as Irish-American Heritage Month in 1991 and the president issues a proclamation commemorating the occasion each year.

(Tentatively scheduled for release in February.)

Women's History Month — The roots of National Women's History Month go back to March 8, 1857, when women from various New York City factories staged a protest over poor working conditions.

In 1987, Congress expanded the week to a month. (Tentatively scheduled for release in February.)
