Methods
Outputs should show source table IDs, data vintage, geography level, calculation notes, generated date, and known limitations where relevant.
Sources
The active public beta centers on U.S. Census Bureau decennial Census, ACS, and TIGER/Line geography. Other public or licensed sources are shown only when their optional release pack is enabled.
Limitations
CensusOS is in beta. Professional outputs should preserve citations and be reviewed against official source documentation before operational use.
