Geocoding Error in Watchtower CDP, New York

The Census Bureau identified a geocoding error in Watchtower CDP, New York. A small number of sample cases were geocoded incorrectly in 2021 during 2020 Census operations. The error will be corrected for the 2020-2024 American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year estimates.

Caution should be exercised when using 2017-2021 and 2018-2022 ACS 5-year estimates for the affected geographies. The 2019-2023 ACS 5-year data products will be suppressed for Watchtower CDP, New York, and its nested geographies. A list of affected geographies is available to download.

Data in the 1-year and 5-year Public Use Microdata Sample (PUMS) files are unaffected by this error.
