The Indiana Federal Statistical Research Data Center is part of The Federal Statistical Research Data Centers (FSRDC) program, a partnership between the Federal statistical system and research institutions. The FSRDC program provides secure environments supporting qualified researchers using restricted-access data while protecting respondent confidentiality. These restricted-access data come from censuses and surveys of businesses and households, linked employer-employee data, and administrative records from federal and state agencies and other sources.
Applications to use restricted-access data through FSRDCs are carefully reviewed by participating agencies. For researchers interested in data provided by the U.S. Census Bureau, applications should be developed in close consultation with the Census administrator. This support will strengthen your proposal and help you obtain approval.
