Connect U.S. Census Full — Complete Demographic & Economic Intelligence MCP to OpenAI Agents SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect U.S. Census Full — Complete Demographic & Economic Intelligence to OpenAI Agents SDK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Run custom queries with the OpenAI Agents SDK
The `query_census` tool lets you pull data from any variable and geography available in the Census API. You specify the variables (like B01003_001E) and the location, giving you total control over your research scope. This isn't just a simple lookup; it’s running custom queries across all 50 states, thousands of counties, and cities using the full power of this MCP Server.
Analyze local economies via OpenAI Agents SDK
Need to know where businesses are clustered? Use `get_business_patterns` from County Business Patterns (CBP) to find out about establishments, payrolls, and employees in specific counties. This tool pinpoints actual economic activity. You can build an agent that takes a county name and automatically runs this check, giving you immediate insights into local market health.
Map demographics across the country
The `get_demographics_by_county` tool pulls racial and ethnic data for every county within a state. This is critical when your agent needs to segment markets or analyze diversity in specific regions. It’s useful for building multi-step workflows: first checking the demographic makeup, then checking housing values with `get_housing_by_county`.
