Aggregation by bucket: Added a new weighted_mean() function to aggregate data by custom demographic and geographic groupings.
CPUMA aggregation: Applied the weighted_mean() function to calculate household size by CPUMA (Census Public Use Microdata Areas).
Demographic aggregation: Applied the weighted_mean() function to calculate household size by age, sex, income group, and race/ethnicity.
Data validation:: Introduced a series of validation checks throughout the pipeline to ensure that no rows are lost during data transformations and that the weighted means are calculated correctly.
Row count validation: Introduced a new validation function validate_row_counts() to ensure no data is lost during processing steps.
Aggregation validation: Added a validation step that compares mean overall household size calculated using two different methods to verify that the results align.
The following features have been added:
