metadata incorrect for 2018 BG in 5-yr ACS 2014-2018 data

  • 1.  metadata incorrect for 2018 BG in 5-yr ACS 2014-2018 data

    Posted 12-11-2021 02:25 AM

    Hello

    I am trying to find the missing subject area standalone files

    X04_Ancestry (ID 04)
    X05_Foreign Born Citizenship (ID 05)
    X06_PLACE_OF_BIRTH (ID 06)

    at the Block Group geography in the pre-joined 2014-2018 ACS 5-Year TIGER/Line geodatabase files

    The metadata states that they exist in 2018 5-year here:

    If they actually exist I would also be interested to find these six subject area files at the BG level in the pre-joined 5 year TIGER/Line geodatabase files. I have tried for a few days and am struggling

    cheers, jason
