Notes

  • Give exactly one 2010 census tract GEOID or coordinate pair. A point answers for its 2010 tract; 2020 census tract ids can differ.
  • A point outside every designated zone, including outside the United States, returns designated: false. Place Resolve gives coordinates for an address.
  • Rural means identified as a rural census tract according to the US Treasury. This is not tax advice.
  • HUD and the dataset and metadata authors assume no responsibility for the use or misuse of the dataset.
  • Results return inline. The finished job stays available at /v1/requests/{request_id}
