Validation Results

District-level 2020 block validation across Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York City

This section summarizes official_vs_blocks only. Each city page uses the current validation outputs in census-2020-validation/results/{city}/official_vs_blocks.csv, links back to the local benchmark and assignment inputs, and shows the selected comparison columns rather than the full raw schema.
