This dataverse compiles Open Environment's dataset integrated around US Census Block Group geographies. In most cases, the data subject is not originally published at block group detail, so each dataset here represents a model, projecting other geographies onto Census block group shapes. As a result, subscribers should evaluate each for quality issues. Requests for support or new development are most welcome.
