The U.S. Bureau of the Census enters into a partnership with a Consortium. The new data center is called The Chicago Research Data Center (Chicago RDC) and would be housed in a secure site at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, in downtown Chicago. The member institutions of the Consortium have pledged space, administrative support, and funding of $1,063,000 for the first three years of the Center conditional on support from the National Science Foundation (NSF). We propose that NSF provide an additional $300,000 over three years to cover the remaining costs of establishing and operating the Center.This award helps cover the costs of establishing and operating The Chicago Research Data Center (Chicago RDC). The Chicago RDC was established through a partnership between the U.S. Bureau of Census and a Consortium consisting of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, Argonne National Laboratory (ANL), the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC), the University of Chicago, and Northwestern University to establish a Research Data Center in Chicago. The Chicago RDC is housed in a secure site at the Federal Reserve Bank in downtown Chicago. The member institutions of the Consortium have pledged space, and administrative support and most of the funding necessary to establish and run the center. The extremely large and accomplished research community that is within easy commuting distance of the proposed location ensures the Center's high quality research output and long-term viability. In addition to important substantive results, the projects undertaken by these researchers should make substantial improvements in Census Bureau data programs. Furthermore, the Chicago Fed and other member institutions have a long track record in dealing with confidential data. The Chicago RDC is positioned to attract large numbers of high-quality projects while adhering to the strict standards of confidentiality required of an RDC. These projects include research on energy and the environment; corporate finance; labor markets; crime; health and childcare; and survey methods.

美国人口普查局与一个财团建立了合作伙伴关系。新的数据中心被称为芝加哥研究数据中心(Chicago RDC)，将设在芝加哥市中心芝加哥联邦储备银行的一个安全地点。该联盟的成员机构承诺为中心的头三年提供空间、行政支持和1,063,000美元的资金，条件是国家科学基金会(NSF)的支持。我们建议NSF在三年内额外提供300,000美元，以支付建立和运营该中心的剩余成本。这笔奖励有助于支付建立和运营芝加哥研究数据中心(Chicago RDC)的成本。芝加哥研究数据中心是由美国人口普查局与由芝加哥联邦储备银行、阿贡国家实验室(ANL)、伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校(UIC)、芝加哥大学和西北大学组成的财团合作建立的，目的是在芝加哥建立一个研究数据中心。芝加哥RDC位于芝加哥市中心联邦储备银行的一个安全地点。该联盟的成员机构承诺提供空间、行政支持和建立和运营该中心所需的大部分资金。位于拟建地点交通便利范围内的规模极大、成就卓著的研究社区确保了中心的高质量研究成果和长期生存能力。除了重要的实质性成果外，这些研究人员开展的项目应该会在人口普查局的数据项目中做出实质性的改进。此外，芝加哥联邦储备银行和其他成员机构在处理机密数据方面有着长期的记录。芝加哥区域发展中心的定位是吸引大量高质量的项目，同时遵守区域发展中心所要求的严格保密标准。这些项目包括关于能源和环境的研究；公司财务；劳动力市场；犯罪；健康和儿童保育；以及调查方法。
