Questions about this workflow
Why use 5-year estimates?
The 5-year ACS action is intended for detailed estimates by geography and variables. Specify the year and areas that fit your analysis.
Can the report compare different regions?
Yes, if you provide the regions and the variables to compare. The workflow should not assume a baseline or history that was not supplied.
How often can it run?
Choose a recurring schedule in Notis. The schedule should match how often you need to refresh the regional review.
