The following alterations have been made to the tabular data: Joined all tables to create one wide attribute table:P1 - RaceP2 - Hispanic or Latino, and not Hispanic or Latino by RaceP3 - Race for the Population 18 Years and OverP4 - Hispanic or Latino, and not Hispanic or Latino by Race for the Population 18 Years and OverH1 - Occupancy Status (Housing)P5 - Group Quarters Population by Group Quarters Type (correctional institutions, juvenile facilities, nursing facilities/skilled nursing, college/university student housing, military quarters, etc.)Header; After joining, dropped fields: FILEID, STUSAB, CHARITER, CIFSN, LOGRECNO, GEOVAR, GEOCOMP, LSADC; GEOCOMP was renamed to GEOID and moved be the first column in the table, the original GEOID was dropped; Placeholder fields for future legislative districts have been dropped: CD118, CD119, CD120, CD121, SLDU22, SLDU24, SLDU26, SLDU28, SLDL22, SLDL24 SLDL26, SLDL28; P0020001 was dropped, as it is duplicative of P0010001.

Please note these percentages might look strange at the individual block level, since this data has been protected using differential privacy.**To protect the privacy and confidentiality of respondents, data has been protected using differential privacy techniques by the U.S. Census Bureau. This means that some individual blocks will have values that are inconsistent or improbable. However, when aggregated up, these issues become minimized. Esri published the layer online here: https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=a491650ec7e544fbb0ad41a8d7ba1e6f; the layer was downloaded county by county and appended to create a statewide layer.]
