+## A Basic `IPUMS.jl` Workflow
+
+
+This is just a first post to lay out a workflow for downloading and using US 
+Census data from the IPUMS system. IPUMS.jl allows users to quickly read and 
+process IPUMS data for subsequent analysis. 
+
+## Pulling the Data
+
+So the first part is to pull the data from the IPUMS website. We can do that
+through a direct download of a zip file from the IPUMS website. Or soon we will 
+be able to download an extract directly from the IPUMS.jl package. 
+
+Once the extract is downloaded and extracted to a local directory, the user 
+can use the IPUMS.jl package to process the contents of the file.
