The Health and Retirement Study Contextual Data Resource (HRS-CDR) is a collection of user friendly data sets that enable researchers to study the impact of place on health and well-being among HRS respondents. The HRS-CDR data products are created by a joint project of the University of Southern California and the University of Michigan, sponsored by the National Institute on Aging (NIA_R21AG045625).
The Fused Air Quality Surface Using Downscaling (FAQSD) Files is derived from data on PM2.5. The data provides predictions for national-scale annual average concentration of PM2.5 (mg/m3) in the United States using monitoring data and Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) output. Data are available at census tract level and organized by time (Year: 2002-2016).
