🚨 #ncpol Reminder: the #2020Census release has legislative boundaries that do NOT align with NC's current districts. We used crosswalks from @nhgis to make files for:
- NC congressional districts
- NC House
- NC Senate

Largest population losses in NC counties:
Robeson: -17,638
Duplin: -9,790
Edgecombe: -7,652
Columbus: -7,475
Halifax: -6,069
Because of changes to #2020Census questionnaire, may see some declines in population identifying as a single racial group ("alone"), but see growth in groups "in combination" (more multiracial identification)
Can't do an exact comparison to 2010 for race/ethnicity -- advise caution -- because of changes in questionnaire and how responses were coded. #Census2020

Hello! This is a thread 🧵 on how to determine how many people live in one county but work in a different county. (For example, if people live in Durham County but work in Wake County...)
The best tool to answer this is the OnTheMap application by the @uscensusbureau

onthemap.ces.census.gov

This uses data from the LEHD Origin-Destination Employment Statistics and is current through 2018.
@uscensusbureau This tool provides detailed information on place of work and place of residence and commuting patterns between the two.

You can drill down on counties by searching for a specific county in the geography search. Let’s use Lincoln County, NC as an example.

A number of groups have made maps showing hard-to-count communities for the upcoming #2020Census. We know a lot of people are at @ShorensteinCtr learning about Census coverage this week and thought we would share a list of these state-level maps.
1. Here's the one we developed with @NCCounts. It shows all of the communities across NC that will likely be hard to count in the upcoming Census. You can zoom in by county, and see demographic information related to census tracts:

nccensus.org/resources/nort…
2. @CUNY's @SR_spatial created a hard-to-count map for the entire country:
