LIBRARIAN WARRIORS (and other statistically interested parties), I need to know where to look to find out the density of homes within street-bound parameters in DC.

The census tells us total households, but I need to break the number down into neighborhoods.

Where can I find this information, please?

Yeah, that was me, too. I made my own bedtime and woke up super early, but wasn't allowed into my parents' room until the alarm went off at 7. I would amuse myself in my room for hours. I do sort of wonder if being able to amuse oneself is an only child thing. A well-raised only child thing, at least. Or our parents were just lucky!

I had a bedtime of 8 pm, but I just went upstairs and sat at the top of the stairs quietly listening to TV if I did not want to sleep, and no one bothered me

bonny, you should be able to get census info by tract, right? Then you can add up the tracts into neighborhoods? (It's been a long time since I've used census data for anything.)

Twenty-Two puns. My work is done today.

Wow. That was impressive, Gud.

There was an article on HuffPo recently about how American parents are Doing It All Wrong because Korean children eat their vegetables and don't snack in between meals, and French children have perfect manners, and Finnish children have more recess time, and Japanese children cosleep until age 10. And was it the Swedes who let their 5 year-olds play with knives?

Well, now I know to bet on the Swedes when it comes to Kinder Thunderdome.

My kids put themselves to bed, kinda, from a young age. We would go in and tuck them in, give kisses and "I love you"s. But story time got cut once they could each read - they preferred to look at books on their own. And CJ perferred listening to classical music to fall asleep. Once each figured out how to do this on their own, we were dismissed.

There were plenty of nights where I struggled with the choice of letting them read late into the night or yipping at them to turn out the light and go to sleep.

Can you do Wonderfalls tomorrow?

That's the problem with a high bar, punster!

Jesse, "tract" is the word I needed, thanks!

So far, the problem is that the census tells me the population of a tract, but not the boundary streets around a tract.

I could extrapolate for neighborhoods within the tract, but at the moment, I'm eyeballing the boundaries in a way that makes the data pretty iffy.
