The group quarters population, population living outside of household settings in institutional and noninstitutional facilities, are now available from Census 2010. Consider, for example, that these are the only source of accurately tabulated data for the nursing home population (among other groups of interest) and that these data are available by census block. These data provide a unique source of such data, comparable across all states, that can be analyzed by metro, health service area, city/community, county/region and other wide-ranging areas of interest.
