Advantages of Restricted Data – <\/span>Better Suited, More Accurate &<\/span> Accessible<\/span><\/h2>\n

Many, but not all, of the data available through FSRDCs have public-release counterparts. These public data, however, often have geographic identifiers suppressed or available only for coarse geographies. What makes data at FSRDCs of particular interest to researchers is access to detailed geographic information, generally to the block and census-tract levels for surveys. FSRDC data also offer researchers less restrictive top-coding and censoring; additional variables (e.g., date of birth), some in greater detail (e.g., race\/ethnicity) or sensitive (e.g., youth sexual behavior and mental health); full counts or larger samples; and original responses or \u201craw\u201d data without imputations. Most notably, the presence of consistent identifiers across many of the available datasets supports research with linked data. Linked data products may already exist or be requested by researchers through their research proposal application for a fee.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
