Profile

The CEB or the Census Enumeration Blocks are the most elementary census aggregates. Every national census unit has such an elementary census frame (for example, they are called "census precincts" in the United States and "first units" in some EU nations). Households are numbered serially within a CEB, and each CEB in urban India contains around 125 households or about 625 individuals.

CEB data (Census Enumeration blocks) was first released in 2017. And we have access to the following data:
1. CEB level data as per Census 2011 for the towns having a population from 50000 to 99999.
    Data available for 605 towns/cities
2. CEB level data as per Census 2011 for the towns having a population from 100000 to 299999.
    Data available for 356 towns/cities
3. CEB level data as per Census 2011 for the towns having a population of 300000 and more
    Data available for 147 towns/cities

Available Variables are State Code, State Name, District Code, District Name, Sub-dist Code, Sub-dist Name, Town Code, Town Name, Ward Code, EB/SubEb Code, TOT_P, TOT_M, TOT_F, SC_P, SC_M, SC_F, ST_P, ST_M, ST_F
