The address search functionality on data.census.gov allows you to type in an address and get a clickable list of geography filters the address falls within.
To search by address:
- Click the geography pin icon in the single search bar on the landing page of data.census.gov
- Enter the street address in the pop-up window, as well as the city/state or ZIP code (example: 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, DC, 20500)
- Click the “Search” button
- View the address card, which contains a list of geographies the address falls within. Click a geography to add it as a selected filter (example: Census Tract 9800).
- You will see the geography as a filter, allowing you to view results for that geography or apply other search criteria to narrow your search.
If this does not meet your needs, you can use the Census Geocoder to find additional levels of geography an address falls within. See the FAQ: How do I search by address using the Census Geocoder for details.
Please note:
- Address search functionality on data.census.gov is exclusively available through the geography pin icon on the landing page.
