New York Census Research Data Center

The New York Census Research Data Center (NYCRDC) at Baruch College is one of the nine secure facilities in the country that provide researchers with the opportunity to engage in approved projects that use the confidential microdata collected by the U.S. Census Bureau.

The NYCRDC represents the collaborative effort of the Census Bureau and 15 prominent social science research organizations: Baruch College, The City University of New York, Columbia University, Cornell University, The Federal Reserve Bank of New York, Fordham University, The National Bureau of Economic Research, New York University, Pace University, Princeton University, The Russell Sage Foundation, Rutgers University, the University at Albany of the State University of New York, the State University of New York at Stony Brook, and Yale University. The NYCRDC also received generous support from the National Science Foundation (grant SEC-0322902 and grant ITR-0427889) to the National Bureau of Economic Research.

All research proposals must undergo a rigorous and extensive review process before they can be carried out at an NYCRDC. Researchers must be able to demonstrate that projects benefit the Census Bureau, meet standards of scientific merit and feasibility, and satisfy stringent confidentiality requirements.
