Pull request overview
This PR updates the sql/ase/get_region_gq_ase_dist.sql query to support the recently released 2020-2024 ACS 5-Year PUMS data and fixes a bug where years 2010-2011 produced unreasonable group quarters distributions due to the missing [DIS] field. The fix introduces a @pums_year variable that maps 2010 and 2011 to use the 2012 PUMS dataset instead, and extends the year ranges from 2023 to 2024.
Changes:
- Introduces
@pums_yearvariable to redirect 2010-2011 input years to use 2012 PUMS data, fixing the missing[DIS]field issue (closes #203). - Extends year-specific CASE branches from 2023 to 2024 to support the newly released 2020-2024 ACS 5-Year PUMS (closes #201).
- Moves
@run_idand@yearcolumns from the[population]CTE to the final SELECT statement and updates documentation comments.
