We've just introduced a new web-based address
correction and ZIP+4 Code lookup tool on CDXTech.com. Please

Our CDXTract database has been updated with the latest
census tract data from the U.S. Census.

New Web-based
Address Correction Tool for ZIP+4 Lookup
We've just added an Address
Correction and ZIP+4 Lookup Tool on our website that
can verify single or multi-line address data. The output report
contains a corrected and standardized USPS address and matching ZIP+4
data. Additional information is included such as the county
name, county FIPS code, congressional district, time zone, and more.
The tool is free to use and demonstrates the output
our CDXGeoData
and CDXStreamer
tools generate for bulk address correction.
Data can be entered as a single line such as "2
West Hanover Ave Ste 202, Randolph, NJ 07869" or as separate
multi-line data fields. Secondary information (such as suite or
apartment number) should be added to the street address without any
comma. Once your input data is entered press the "Generate
Report" button on the web page to start the report creation.
The application will work in any browser and does not require
Microsoft Excel.
Here is an example of the output:
Click on the printer icon next to the report button to
save a copy of the report.
The Address Verification and ZIP+4 Lookup app can be
found under the "Tools" menu at the top of the CDXTech.com
website, or by clicking here.

Get the Latest ACS Data by Census Tract
We have just updated the CDXZipStream Census Tract
data feed from the American Community Survey, for the years
2011-2015. The feed includes all census tracts in both the U.S.
and Puerto Rico, and covers a wide array of demographic data such as:
age, individual earnings, educational attainment, household
size, household income, housing value and rent, marital status, population,
race, and school enrollment. Most of these where relevant are
also provided by gender.
Since census tracts are on average about half the size
of ZIP Codes, they offer a more precise demographic snapshot. A
complete listing and description of each demographic variable is
provided in the downloadable document CDXZipStream Data Feeds and Definitions.
Here's a quick tutorial on how to use CDXZipStream to
retrieve census tract data:

Census Tract
Demographics for an Address List
|
To access the data, census tract codes (also referred
to as FIPS codes) must be provided as input to an Excel worksheet.
CDX Technologies also offers a free Excel template that can
identify census tract codes for an address list - please see the article
Get Census Tract FIPS Codes in an Excel Template
for more details.
The census tract database is compatible with all
demographic versions of CDXZipStream. It is a separate purchase
and is currently priced at $199.95.
