A demographic and socioeconomic profile of Chicago, replicating the one displayed on Census Reporter. Notably that portal uses ACS 1 year estimates, while 5 year estimates for 2021 are available and generally considered more reliable.
See the data directory for more information on obtaining data for this
project. I will not distribute data with this repository.
See the src directory for the source code used here.
The continuous data for when a respondent moved into their current housing unit is not publicly available, so I cannot recreate that table/chart.
I do not presently understand how to replicate Number of housing units, or perhaps more accurately I don't understand how this quantity differs from Number of households in any meaningful, Census-related way.
Something is wrong with the official profile's tabulation of house values. (See Value of owner-occupied housing units). The easiest way to demonstrate this is to look at the top bucket. The Over $1M item's total is 14,010. Following the link to Table B25075, however, reveals that 14,010 is the total for just $1,000,000 to $1,499,999. Potentially this is a matter of topcoding policy differing between the two backends?
The pandemic caused a few rapid changes to demography. It took me a while to convince myself that my recreation was not in error. The most notable table is Means of transportation, especially as seen in the Worked at home item. But other Census Reporter tables corroborate my numbers.
