Before you begin
To ensure the protection of the Census Bureau’s Title 13, U.S.C. address information, refer to section 4.2 in the Confidentiality and Security Guidelines. If you selected to receive the Census Bureau’s Title 13 PDF small format block maps, follow the security guidelines as explained in section 4.1 of the Confidentiality and Security Guidelines.
What you will need
The 2020 Census Local Update of Census Addresses Operation (LUCA) Respondent Guide—contains instructions and provides examples for reviewing and updating the Census Bureau’s Address List.
The Census Bureau Address List—contains all of the residential addresses (city-style and non-city style) for your government.
The Address Count List—contains the number of housing unit and group quarters addresses on the Census Bureau’s Address List for each census block within your jurisdiction. This list is for reference only to identify inconsistencies between the Census Bureau’s count and your count of residential addresses in each census block within your jurisdiction.
The Address List Add Page—use this preprinted page to add residential addresses not shown on the Census Bureau’s Address List or to add address that are not editable on the address list. (Make additional copies of the blank add page before recording your address updates.)
The 2020 LUCA Maps—the maps display census tracts and census blocks used to geocode addresses. Geocoding assigns an address or structure to a location identified by the correct state, county, census tract, and census block. You may use the large format paper maps, the PDF small format block maps, or the partnership shapefiles that you selected to make necessary spatial updates.
The Block to Map Sheet Relationship List—this list identifies the map sheet or sheets on which each census block is located. For use with large format maps.
A colored pencil—used to update the paper maps.
Adobe Acrobat software to open and view the Census Bureau’s PDF maps. In addition, legal size, 8 ½ x 14 -inch paper is required to print the maps for updating.
Opening the PDF small format maps
The package includes a Title 13 Data Disc with PDF small format block maps if you selected to receive the Census Bureau’s PDF maps. You need the password mailed to you separately from your paper LUCA materials to open the zipped, encrypted file. The DVD also contains the 2020 Census Local Update of Census Addresses Operation (LUCA) Respondent Guide in PDF format, an inventory form for the return of your updated paper materials, and a Readmefirst file. You need Adobe Reader (or Acrobat Professional) to open and view the PDF maps. If needed, you can download the free PDF software at <https://acrobat.adobe.com/us/en/acrobat/pdf-reader.html.>
