About this product
Analysis-ready Census LEHD LODES employment data for all 11 million+ US Census blocks — origin-destination commute flows, workforce demographics (age, earnings, race, education, sex, 20 NAICS sectors), and job characteristics including firm age and size. A geographic crosswalk enables instant aggregation from blocks to tracts, counties, metros, and states.
Twenty-two years of annual data (2002-2023) support longitudinal analysis. No pipeline to build or maintain — new data is added automatically when Census publishes, with full batch lineage.
Questions it answers
For a given employment center, where do its workers commute from?
How is job density by NAICS sector distributed across a metro?
How does the jobs-housing balance score a candidate development site?
