+# Model Card
+
+**Model:** Census income classifier (RandomForest)
+
+**Version:** 0.1
+
+**Model Details:**
+- **Developed by:** Exercise starter code
+- **Model type:** RandomForestClassifier (scikit-learn)
+- **Date:** 2026-09-27
+
+**Intended Use:**
+- Predict whether an individual's salary is >50K based on census features for educational/demo purposes.
+
+**Training Data:**
+- Cleaned census data provided in `data/census.csv`.
+
+**Evaluation Data:**
+- Holdout split from the provided dataset used for validation.
+
+**Metrics:**
+- Precision, recall, and F1 (fbeta with beta=1).
+
+**Ethical Considerations:**
+- Use caution: model may encode biases present in training data (race, sex, etc.).
+
+**Caveats and Recommendations:**
+- Perform fairness audits before deployment.
+- Retrain with updated data if distribution shifts.
