Why is Experian Full US ACS data show 2019?

[michael_weaver]

I was wondering why the Experian Full US ACS dataset has said 2019 for the last couple of years. I haven't been able to find an answer to this in any documentation included with the data packages or in the Community. Does anyone know if the ACS has been updated since then in the data package?

Hi @michael_weaver - the 2020 ACS dataset was delayed due to the pandemic (see linked article). On March 17, 2022 US Census announced that this next batch of 5-year data was ready for consumption: New Statistics Available From the 2016–2020 ACS 5-Year Estimates 

Since Alteryx releases data packs quarterly, I can imagine it won't be long until we get this data out. I will check with our team on the release date for this.
