SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Census Bureau is planning one national
webinar on November 18, 2021, with federally and state recognized
tribes, which will provide a forum for tribes to review 2020 Census
Data Product Planning Crosswalk (Crosswalk) and the proposed 2020
Census data products and view the Census Bureau's demonstration of the
features and information in the Crosswalk to provide input on these
products. The Crosswalk includes information on the recently released
2020 Census Redistricting Data (Pub. L. 94-171) Summary File tables and
proposed data tables for the 2020 Census Demographic Profile,
Demographic and Housing Characteristics File (DHC) and Detailed
Demographic and Housing Characteristics File (Detailed DHC).
The layout of the Crosswalk includes a proposed list of tables for
these 2020 Census data products compared to the published list of
tables from the 2010 Census. The proposed lowest levels of geography,
proposed table shells, and the content changes from the 2010 Census are
also included. The Crosswalk will provide tribes and tribal data users
the opportunity to view the list of proposed Detailed DHC tables and
table shells for the first time.
In accordance with Executive Order 13175, Consultation and
Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments, issued November 6, 2000,
the Census Bureau has adhered to its tribal consultation policy by
seeking the input of tribal governments in the planning and
implementation of the 2020 Census with the goal of ensuring the most
accurate counts and data for the American Indian and Alaska Native
population. In that regard, the Census Bureau is seeking comments on
the data products included in the Demographic Profile, the DHC and the
Detailed DHC.

characteristics about local communities.

Summary File 2 (SF2) and the 2010 American Indian and Alaska Native
