A proposed list of tables for the 2020 Census, compared to the published list of tables from the 2010 Census,
The proposed lowest levels of geography,
Proposed table shells, and
DHC content changes from the 2010 Census.

It also provides data users the opportunity to view the list of proposed Detailed DHC tables and table shells for the first time. 

Data users are invited to send feedback on these planned data products to 2020DAS@census.gov through Oct. 22. More information is available in the 2020 Census Data Products newsletter. A webinar will be held Sept. 30 at 3 p.m. (ET) to review the Crosswalk and the proposed changes. Login details will be available at a later date.
