WHAT IS IPUMS?
IPUMS provides free census and survey data from around the world. We receive funding from the NIH and NSF to make data more accessible to researchers by making them comparable across time and space. IPUMS data users can create customized data files that include only the variables and samples of interest through our online interface and download these files for use in their preferred statistical package.
