"*Written by: Ron Jarmin, Deputy Director*"

Earlier this month, the U.S. Census Bureau announced the official opening of the Puerto Rico Federal Statistical Research Data Center (PR FSRDC), a monumental achievement that marks a new era for data-driven research and innovation in the territory. This center, which officially opens this fall, is a bold step forward in our mission to expand the reach and impact of statistical data in Puerto Rico.

As the first Federal Statistical Research Data Center [ [link removed] ] in a U.S. territory, the PR FSRDC will empower local researchers with unprecedented access to restricted-use microdata from a wide array of federal agencies including the Census Bureau. FSRDCs provide secure environments supporting qualified researchers using restricted-access data while protecting respondent confidentiality. The data available will enable researchers to explore new, previously unanswerable questions about our society, economy, public health systems and more.

Whether addressing complex policy challenges or contributing to global research, Puerto Rican scholars will now have the tools to conduct high-impact studies, just like their peers in mainland institutions, to inform policy and decision-makers.
