Dear ,
We are excited to announce the release of the latest ACS 5-year summary file data from IPUMS NHGIS, a new tool to help researchers understand linking counts between the ATUS and CPS, and even more geography variables from IPUMS USA. Read on for details on these new releases, upcoming opportunities to talk data to us, and updates to U.S. Federal Data Platforms. Finally, remember to submit your nominations for the annual IPUMS Research Awards competition!

Data Updates
IPUMS NHGIS
IPUMS NHGIS has added the 2020-2024 5-Year Summary File from the American Community Survey (ACS). Nearly 1,200 new summary tables are now available for geographic areas as small as block groups. NHGIS also extended its time series tables to include 2020-2024 ACS 5-year data and added new 2024 GIS boundary files.
IPUMS TIME USE
IPUMS ATUS has released ATUS-CPS Linking Counts, an interactive tool for exploring the number of ATUS respondents who can be linked to specific months of the CPS. Check out our latest blog post for an introduction of how to use this tool to take advantage of the research potential of the ATUS-CPS linkage.
IPUMS USA
IPUMS USA has added geography variables, including a new consistent PUMA variable, CPUMA1020, which creates consistent geographic boundaries across 2010 and 2020 PUMA definitions, spanning the 2012β2024 samples. Users can also find new Migration and Place-of-Work variables based on 2023 metropolitan statistical area (MSA) definitions.

Conferences
Consortium of Universities for Global Health (CUGH) 2026 Conference
April 9-12 | Washington, DC
IPUMS will be exhibiting at the CUGH 2026 conference. Stop by the IPUMS exhibit booth to visit with IPUMS Global Health data experts.
Population Association of America (PAA) 2026 Annual Meeting
May 6-9 | St. Louis, MO
Make plans to stop by the IPUMS booth at the PAA 2026 Annual Meeting. Our data experts will be ready to talk data with you. We are also hosting a pre-conference workshop on the linked, full-count historical census data available from the IPUMS MLP; add the workshop "Advances and Resources in Linking Full Count Census Data from IPUMS" to your PAA registration to join.
Β
2025 IPUMS Research Awards
This is the final week to submit nominations for the 2025 IPUMS Research Awards competition. The IPUMS Research Awards honor recent outstanding research that uses IPUMS data to advance or deepen our understanding of social and demographic processes. Award nominations are open through February 15.

Updates on U.S. Federal Data Platforms
Survey on Changes to the Federal Statistical System
As part of its Emergency Mobilization for Essential Research and Government-Data Equivalents (EMERGE) initiative, SRSS is conducting a survey of data users to capture the impact of recent changes at U.S. federal statistical agencies. The survey closes February 27.
Federal Register Notice: American Community Survey (ACS) and Puerto Rico Community Survey (PRCS)
The Department of Commerce is gathering comments on proposed changes to the ACS and PRCS through next Tuesday, February 17. The changes include the introduction of an internet self-response option for the PRCS (as is already used in the ACS) and the implementation of modernized race and ethnicity standards. The updated race and ethnicity standards are set under Statistical Policy Directive 15. The Census Bureau provides a page outlining its extensive research on race and ethnicity and its testing to develop the updated standards.
Federal Register Notice: MEPS-Household Component (MEPS-HC)
The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality is accepting comments via the Federal Register through March 2 about changes to the MEPS-HC. The notice references minor changes to question phrasing, a change to the respondent sex question, and the removal of questions about counseling and treatment, birth control, aspirin use, and gender. The notice also reports the discontinuation of two supplements: (1) the Diabetes Care Supplement (DCS), which was fielded annually for 2000-2025 (we do not expect the 2023-2025 data to be released) and (2) the Medical Care Self-Administered Questionnaire (ESAQ), which was slated for a single year of data collection in 2024, with no data yet released. Those interested in these components of the MEPS-HC data for their research may want to respond. If your work is not affected by these changes, you may also use this opportunity to describe the general importance of MEPS-HC data for your research agenda.
Federal Register Notice: Contingent Worker Supplement
The Bureau of Labor Statistics is accepting comments through April 13 via the Federal Register about proposed changes to the Contingent Worker Supplement of the Current Population Survey. The proposed changes will update the collection of digital platform work in the supplement scheduled for July 2026.

New Blog Post
New Tool! ATUS-CPS Linking Counts
The team at IPUMS is excited to introduce something brand new! ATUS-CPS Linking Counts is an interactive tool for exploring the number of ATUS respondents who can be linked to specific CPS months. This new tool very quickly allows you to view the number of ATUS respondents who should appear in each CPS month and determine if there is sufficient sample size for a particular application of linked ATUS-CPS data.
