I believe I found the problem, Magnolia677. I gathered the data on 12/12/2022, but I updated the information in the last 24 hours. The U.S. Census bureau updated their data in the last couple of weeks. Thus, if you were cross referencing the census data on the page with the census data from the website, then they didn't match. I'm assuming that's the issue. I should have just updated the wiki on December 12, but I didn't expect the Census to update it's data page. Clearly, I was wrong. So, if there's a specific data piece that is incorrect, please let me know, as I assume that you've been checking. Again...please don't think me as engaging in deliberate vandalism. I really hope that you understand that it is a mistake. WLRT1 (talk) 19:13, 1 January 2023 (UTC)
