Context

There's an official source for U.S. Counties, with FIPS codes and population.

We can use the FIPS codes to make sure our counties

Requirements

  • surface discrepancies in our counties table
    • are there counties our db is missing, or that have incorrect metadata?
    • are there counties our db has that aren't in the new data?
  • resolve discrepancies
    • "how" depends on what the discrepancies look like
    • removing counties will result in agencies without counties; we will need to resolve those too
  • add a population for counties
    • use the most recent estimates. This will help us prioritize search results and report out metrics—what percentage of the U.S. population are we covering, for example?
