Latin American Census Data: Dominican Republic, 2010

This collection comprises six geospatial datasets from the Dominican Republic's Censo 2010, collected by the Oficina Nacional de Estadística (ONE) and documented and restructured by East View Cartographic, Inc. as part of a partnership with IPUMS International titled the Global Census Archive. The collection includes five Shapefile polygon layers organized by thematic category — Demographic, Economic, Housing, Migration, and Social — at the barrio administrative level (ADM5), plus the source ESRI Geodatabase from which the thematic layers were derived. All data covers 12,565 barrios with 756 total attribute variables across five thematic tables. Demographic indicators include recent births and deaths, sex, marital status, offspring, and age; economic indicators cover socioeconomic status, employment and unemployment, and occupational category; housing indicators document housing type, building materials, household facilities and amenities, family relationships, and building hazards; migration indicators include immigration and internal migration; and social indicators encompass educational attainment and literacy, educational specialization, and disability status. All variable names were translated from Spanish, with field name prefixes used to organize attributes by theme (D = Demographic, E = Economic, H = Housing, M = Migration, S = Social).
