title: Census of Population and Housing, 1990 [United States]: Summary Tape File 2B
title: Archival Version

description: This data collection provides detailed tabulations of
 100-percent data items from the 1990 Census of Population and Housing.
 These tabulations are presented for states, counties, places with
 1,000 or more persons, county subdivisions with 1,000 or more persons
 (selected states), county subdivisions with fewer than 1,000 persons
 in Metropolitan Statistical Areas/Consolidated MSAs (MSAs/CMSAs)
 (selected states), and state and county portions of Native American
 and Alaskan Native areas. Population items include age, race, sex,
 marital status, Hispanic origin, household type, and household
 relationship. Housing items include occupancy/vacancy status, tenure,
 units in structure, contract rent, meals included in rent, value, and
 number of rooms in housing unit. Crosstabulations include variables
 such as single year of age by sex, tenure by age of householder, age
 by group quarters, aggregate value by units in structure, and tenure
 by number of nonrelatives. The dataset contains both "A" and "B"
 records. "A" records are provided for each summary level in a
 geographic area, and are repeated for each geographic component. "B"
 records repeat the same data for each summary level/geographic
 component combination, but are tabulated for each of 34 categories of
race and Hispanic origin.

description: (1) The data for Part 72, Puerto Rico, are structured
 differently than the data for the state files. There are no "A" and
 "B" records, nor categories for race or Hispanic origin. There are
 tables for condominium ownership, occupancy, and value. The tables for
 rent amounts do not include meals. There are 25 population tables and
 63 housing tables for Puerto Rico. (2) The codebook for the state data
 is in ASCII text format, and the codebook for Puerto Rico is provided
 as a Portable Document Format (PDF) file. The PDF file format was
 developed by Adobe Systems Incorporated and can be accessed using PDF
