You can find the list of all available variables [on the variable selection page](https://usa.ipums.org/usa-action/variables/group). They are available both alphabetically as well as by topic under the _Person_ and _Household_ headings. I recommend consulting [these video tutorials](https://usa.ipums.org/usa/tutorials.shtml) for further help finding variables and using the provided documentation.
