About sociome
A six-year silence ends with the Area Deprivation Index rebuilt on the 2020 census.
sociome computes the Area Deprivation Index and related measures of social determinants of health from US census data. After patch releases in 2019 and 2020 the package went quiet, and version 3.0.0 in January 2026 returns with complete 2020 decennial census support, expanded ZCTA coverage, and helper objects that tell users up front which dataset, year and geography combinations the census API will actually serve.
