Abstract The Synthetic_Populations dataset comprises artificially generated subpopulations that are based on street addresses derived from the Geocoded National Address File (GNAF). These synthetic subpopulations serve as representative samples of real-world populations and are specifically designed for use in simulations. By leveraging the GNAF addresses, the dataset offers a realistic representation of demographic and spatial characteristics, enabling simulations that can aid in understanding social phenomena, urban planning, resource allocation, and policy evaluation in a controlled and reproducible manner.
