Today I’m taking a look at the racial composition of Seattle, according to the 2010 Census. Towards this end, I’ll use Integrated Public Use Microdata Series** (**IPUMS) National Historical Geographic Information System (NHGIS). You can also use data.census.gov, which I found to be much slower (so much pinwheeling!) than the IPUMS-NHGIS system.

Note: scroll to the bottom for a glossary of terms.
