Does anyone know where I can get hold of census block data for the 2010 Census? The smallest unit I can find both population and area data for are census tracts.
Thanks very much for replying, but I already have access to maps with block boundaries via both the Census Bureau and TIGERweb. It seems despite their boundaries being readily seen on maps, data on these smallest of units is very illusive.
Thanx very much man. That's certainly the quickest way I've seen to access data on multiple blocks. Annoyingly it's only for the largest metros. At the moment, I'm using TIGERweb to get the data, annoyingly though it's really slow.

You can also use city-data's map, which is extremely in depth. Just type in your town name and then "city-data" and then click on the city-data link and then an interactive map comes up. (ex: Atlanta, GA city-data)..... But I do question the reliability of much of the data.

I actually already had that NY Times one bookmarked, though it only goes to tract level.
City-data's map only goes seems to go to block group level, or at least only to group level for the area around Greensburg, PA, which I'm looking at at the moment.
Thanx anyway though. I'm glad there are some people who might be interested in this sort of thing.

Choose block under source, and some larger unit (county? state? metro?) for target.
