We'll be adding 2020 data when its available from the USDA or the Census. From Asnake Hailu, The schemes shared in the RUCAGuide.pdf are DOH modified layers, prepared merely for epidemiological purposes [I.e., to delineate geography for a comprehensive epidemiologic assessment , describing rural-urban differences in demographics, health outcomes, risk factors, access to services, and the like.] Those are not as such rural/urban designation tools for census block areas, nor for any of the other geography categories. The files with the DOH modified layers are available at https://doh.wa.gov/public-health-healthcare-providers/rural-health/data-maps-and-other-resources under the sub-county level: Zip Code and Census Tract sub-heading. Please note: those files are essentially a decade old. We were anticipating to update our core products that are on our website, if and when the Federal Office of Rural Health and Policy (FORHP) produces a newer version of RUCA codes based on census 2020. The FORHP customarily contracts with a university for that task. We are three years away from 2020, except there is no update posted on the webpage I am familiar to get the original RUCA delineations . Here is a path where I go to check for the newer version: https://www.ers.usda.gov/data-products/rural-urban-commuting-area-codes/</dc:description><dc:format>ArcGIS FeatureLayer</dc:format><dc:identifier>https://hub.arcgis.com/datasets/354b298782e943d0be2387412596cc51_0</dc:identifier><dc:language>eng</dc:language><dc:publisher>State of Washington Geospatial Open Data Portal</dc:publisher><dc:rights>Public</dc:rights><dc:title>Rural Urban Commuting Areas (2010 Census Tracts) [Washington (State)]</dc:title><dc:type>Web services</dc:type><dc:coverage>Washington (State)</dc:coverage><dc:date>2010</dc:date></oai_dc:dc>
