Population items include sex, age, race, Hispanic or Latino, household relationship, and group quarters. Housing items include occupancy status, vacancy status, and tenure (owner occupied or renter occupied).

There is a total of 171 population tables and 56 housing tables down to the block level, and 59 population tables down to the census tract level for a total of 286 tables. There are 14 population tables and 4 housing tables down to the block level, and 4 population tables shown down to the census tract level that are repeated by major race and Hispanic or Latino groups2.
