https://community.esri.com/t5/spatial-statistics-questions/2000-census-tiger-file-conversion/m-p/1411894#M2642 <P>I haven't converted tiger files in forever, but I can tell you a good strategy for getting 2000 Census Data for the State of Louisiana. Go to the <A href="https://livingatlas.arcgis.com/en/browse/?q=2000%20census%20data#q=2000+census+data&amp;d=2" target="_self">ArcGIS Living Atlas of the world</A>&nbsp;and search for 2000 Census Data. A number of layers will come up. I got Population Change, for example; it has State, County, Tract, and Block Group geometry. Once you have your geometry, you can join it to the census data you need (the layer I got has several 2000 fields). You can also use the Enrich tool to get other 2000 census data fields including these:&nbsp;</P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="LaurenGriffin_0-1713474563699.png" style="width: 400px;"><img src="https://community.esri.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/101438i4022ABA362349ED3/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;px=400" role="button" title="LaurenGriffin_0-1713474563699.png" alt="LaurenGriffin_0-1713474563699.png" /></span></P><P>The Enrich tool does use credits, but they are very affordable (especially compared to the time it takes to find, clean, and join the data from other sources).
