Hey, that's great—good for them for providing that level of detail. I've modified that record to point to the raw data, instead of their aggregated, PDF-bound data. Thank you!

Looks like the rating remained the same, though: https://census.usopendata.org/datasets.html?state=Missouri&datatype=Incarceration

I have no idea what happened there. :-/ But I fixed it again! I hope it takes. :)

SERutherford commented 8 years ago

Looks like "available in bulk" is still set to 'no' and there are typos in some of the other fields. Is that correct?

Amazing project, by the way!

What a strange problem! I've corrected those, but I'm not sure how it happened. This makes me all the more eager to move the data off of Google Sheets and into a CSV file, to facilitate validation. :-/ Thanks for your persistence. :)
