Each year, the Census Bureau releases three versions of the American
Communities Survey (ACS). These are the 1-Year, the 3-Year, and the
5-Year ACS Estimates. These are released based on the population size of
the municipality. Five year estimates are released for EVERY level of
census geography (down to the block group level) as well as every
municipality (think town, city, and village). Three year estimates are
only released for geographies or municipalities with a MINIMUM
population of 20,000 persons. So many smaller villages and towns are
excluded. One year estimates are released for municipalities with a
MINIMUM population of 65,000. This means they are mostly for counties
and larger cities. For our region, ONLY ONEIDA COUNTY HAS SINGLE YEAR
ESTIMATES AVAILABLE.
The most recent 3-Year Estimates are now a permanent part of this blog
in the linked area just below the title above. A permanent link will
take you to the most recent 3 year estimates post so you can always
easily find this important data for both Oneida Counties !

2011 Population Estimates for NYS Counties
As noted earlier, the US Census Bureau has released the July 1, 2011 county level estimates for our region. Below are the estimates for every county in New York based on the estimates program.
Release of 2011 Estimates of Population from the Census Bureau
Every ten years, the U.S. Census Bureau conducts its decennial census. In the non-decennial years, the Bureau produces and publishes estimates of the population for each state and county, as well as the nation as a whole. This series of estimates is part of the (no surprise here in its name) Estimates Program.
The most recently released estimate (the July 1, 2011 estimate) is the first based solely on the 2010 Census counts and what are referred to as the components of change. As estimates are produced each year between the decennial censuses, the entire estimate series is revised and updated. For each state and county, the Census Bureau each July releases annual estimates of the resident population by age, sex, race, and Hispanic origin. These estimates are produced largely through an analysis of three components of population change: births, deaths, and migration.
To estimate births, the Census Bureau utilizes birth certificate data collected by the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). NCHS provides final individual birth records for births occurring before January 1, 2010.
To estimate deaths, the Bureau utilizes death data collected by NCHS. NCHS provides final individual death records for all deaths occurring before January 1, 2010 by residence, age, sex, race, and Hispanic origin of each decedent, as well as the place and date each death occurred.
International migration estimate has several parts: immigration of the foreign born, emigration of the foreign born, net migration between the United States and Puerto Rico, net migration of natives to and from the United States, and net movement of the Armed Forces population to and from the United States.
The Census Bureau also estimates net domestic migration separately for two population universes – those living in household and group quarters and for those in each of two age groups (0 to 64 years and 65 years and older).
For the 0 to 64 year old household population, the Census Bureau uses Federal income tax returns supplied by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to track person-level data on filers and dependents aged 0 to 64 years. Two years of IRS tax returns are matched and the addresses are compared to identify the number of individuals (represented by exemptions) who moved from one county to another between tax filings. A process is used to account for non-tax filers.
For the 65 years and older household population, the Bureau uses annual Medicare enrollment data for each county from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid. As with the IRS data, not all U.S. residents aged 65 and older receive, or are eligible to receive, Medicare benefits. Therefore, a separate process accounts for those not part of the Medicare process.
To estimate the net domestic migration of the group quarters population, data from the Census 2010 is used, in combination with data collected from a special survey of these facilities called the Group Quarters Report.
