The release of the 2017 ACS 5-year public use micro data file is delayed by the federal government shutdown. We do not expect to receive any additional information during the shutdown on the release schedule for these data. Once the data are publicly available, delivering them to IPUMS users will be our top priority. If, on the other hand, you are looking for aggregated data from the 2017 5-year file [IPUMS NHGIS](https://www.nhgis.org/) just recently released this data.
