A partnership between UCI's School of Social Sciences and the U.S. Census Bureau.
The University of California, Irvine branch of the California Federal Statistical
Research Data Center (RDC) is a partnership between UCI's School of Social Sciences
and the U.S. Census Bureau. The on-campus site allows approved UCI and other researchers
access to confidential Census data and other federal statistics that are central to
high-quality research in economics, sociology, health services, public health, transportation,
law, business, and more.
General inquiries can be directed to rdc@uci.edu. If you are interested in scheduling a presentation for your class, research group,
center, or school about the RDC and the research opportunities it affords, please
contact Matthew Freedman.
