Question about DP02_0011PE

    Hello, Someone in the Census Slack channel suggested I post a question here. I hope this is an appropriate forum.

    The following api call produces valid estimates for single person (no spouse) households in 2019:
    https://api.census.gov/data/2019/acs/acs5/profile?get=NAME,DP02_0011PE&for=county%20subdivision:*&in=state:25%20county:017
    But returns only -888888888 for 2020:
    https://api.census.gov/data/2020/acs/acs5/profile?get=NAME,DP02_0011PE&for=county%20subdivision:*&in=state:25%20county:017

    I checked the 2020 change guide here: https://www2.census.gov/data/api-documentation/2020-5yr-api-changes.csv but can find no reference in a change to this variable. Can anyone direct me to a new variable for this data or let me know if it's been deleted and I just can't find the change log?

    Thanks very much...Jim C
