Selected U.S. Census TIGER Shapefiles

The ongoing government shutdown includes federal online services like websites and FTP servers. This includes Census.gov, a reliable source of nationwide geographic data. The files linked here are backups of Census data that happened to be available when the servers went dark. If you have additional files that could be linked (such as edges or summary files), get in touch at @michalmigurski.

Files here are graciously hosted by OpenStreetMap US Foundation via Oregon State Open Source Lab. This collection assembled by Michal Migurski, Code for America.
