What we do not hold here
- Population, housing, crime, income and other census-style figures: we hold none for the United States here, so nothing above is a rate per person.
- Nonprofits are placed at the centre of their ZIP code, so distances are to the ZIP centre, not a street address.
- Congressional districts come from the Census ZIP-to-district file for the 118th Congress; districts redrawn since may differ.
- State legislators, county and most city councils are not held yet, only governors and statewide officials, two city councils and the US Congress.
- Private and charter schools beyond the public-school list are not held.
