Census release is planned for 12/6/2018, and was curious how soon after this week’s five-year release the microdata will be available?

Thanks much!

Certain ACS 5-year data products will be released on December 6th but the PUMS will not be released by Census until January 17th, 2019 ([https://www.census.gov/programs-surve…](https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/acs/news/data-releases/2017/release-schedule.html)). We’ll likely turn these around within a month from release.

Thanks!
