How to Find US Census Median Household Income Data for a Spreadsheet of Latitude/Longitude Coordinates
1. Organize the latitude/longitude coordinates you want to add ACS household income data to in a spreadsheet
The first step will be to organize the lat/lon pairs into a spreadsheet. Your spreadsheet will need to have headers. The coordinates can all be in one column or in multiple columns as long as it is consistent for the entire spreadsheet.
You can also download an example spreadsheet here. The coordinates should all be in the US.
2. Upload the spreadsheet of lat/long pairs to Geocodio to match to Census household income data
Once your spreadsheet is organized, you can upload it directly to Geocodio. After confirming the columns and seeing a preview of the file on a map, you will be presented with options to append data. You will want to check the box that says “Census ACS Economics.” This will automatically check the box next to ‘US Census Identifiers’ and you can choose the Census year.
Results are billed as geocode + ACS Economics info (i.e., two lookups). For example, if you have 100 addresses that you want Census ACS economics data for, that would count as 200 lookups. You can calculate how much this will cost you and how long it will take here.
3. Download your completed spreadsheet with Census household income information added
You will receive an email when your spreadsheet is done processing -- no need to stay on the page. You can download an example spreadsheet of addresses with Census household income data added here.
