New York Federal Statistical Research Data Center (NYRDC)

The New York Federal Statistical Research Data Center (NYRDC) is part of the Federal Statistical Research Data Center (FSRDC) network. The NYRDC operates three secure computer labs that provide researchers with the opportunity to engage in approved projects that use the restricted-access microdata collected by the U.S. Census Bureau and other federal agencies.  NYRDC labs are located at Baruch College, Cornell University, and Yale University.

The NYRDC is operated by a consortium of 16 universities and research institutions in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.  Institutional membership in the NYRDC consortium covers lab access fees for faculty members, graduate students, and researchers affiliated with member institutions.  Researchers at non-member institutions may access the NYRDC labs for a fee.

For inquiries regarding access to the NYRDC labs, please email NYRDC Executive Director Diane Gibson at Diane.Gibson@baruch.cuny.edu.
