Hi all, Thank you so much for sharing this data. I am a Phd student and have been looking for this for a long time. Does anyone know if it is possible to find the 1981 census data anywhere? The data is available on http://vanneman.umd.edu/districts/files/index.html in SAS format but unfortunately I do not have access to SAS and the convertors I have only leave me with variable names and no data.
