- Starting or raw data should be pulled using code or should be added to Box. Only final data files should be added GitHub repository.
- Whenever possible, programs should pull data directly from the original source, meaning raw data does not have to be downloaded manually prior to code execution for the program to work. For example, programs that rely on American Community Survey (ACS) data should write code that utilizes the [Census API](https://www.census.gov/data/developers/data-sets.html) to pull in micro data; for [R programmers] the [ipumsr package](https://developer.ipums.org/docs/v2/apiprogram/clients/) is a great tool for pulling ACS micro data from the Census API using code.
- When it is not possible to pull data in code, please download the data raw data files into this [Box folder](https://urbanorg.app.box.com/folder/212634639045?s=vxwenrky5q6dz9g0qs68h0qi1cdx4xe2) so that it can be made universally available to all contributors on the project. Ensure that files have clear names and code is clearly commented so it is clear to other users what data is being used and where it is stored. Also, ensure that programs are written so they do not save over the starting/raw data file(s).
