Census data:

Total and group quarters populations in this block

Source: The total population number comes from Table P1 and the group quarters counts from Table P5 of the 2020 Census (P.L. 94-171) Redistricting Data Summary File.

Some data users may want more detailed information about race/ethnicity and age/sex of the correctional populations in particular blocks. There are two indirect ways to fill this need:

1) Because the correctional population is almost always the majority of a census block, you can often use the race/ethnicity of the total population in 2020 PL94-171 Tables 1, 2, 3 and 4 to estimate the race/ethnicity of the correctional population in that block.

2) Alternatively, or if you also need age/sex data on the correctional population, the tract-level tables from 2020 Census Demographic and Housing Characteristics file PCT18A through PCT18I "Group quarters population by sex by age by major group quarters type" for each race/ethnicity category may provide the necessary information.
