These datasets contain information on the geographic distribution of individuals of different ethnicities, from ages 0-17, living in 362 metropolitan areas. This data assigns random coordinates to individuals by race and ethnicity within their census block. The assigned coordinate, also called a “dot,” is a thematic representation of the individual’s location. These coordinates are estimated using the 2010 Census Block data.
