Connect U.S. Census Population — Demographics, Age & Diversity MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect U.S. Census Population — Demographics, Age & Diversity to Cursor and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Write scripts using county data
Use the `get_demographics_by_county` tool to fetch racial and ethnic data for a state's counties. This lets you write code that models population distribution accurately. Instead of hardcoding assumptions, your AI agent generates functions that pull live demographic context directly into your script.
Build city-level reports
The `get_population_by_city` tool gives you population counts for specific towns and incorporated areas. You can write code that compares these numbers across different geographic points. This is perfect when your application needs to know the size of a market segment within a state.
Calculate total US metrics
You can call `get_population_by_state` to get overall population and median age data for all 50 states plus DC. This result injects directly into your code's variables. It’s a quick way to grab the macro-level census data you need without leaving your editor.
