Data collected in 2013 from the nation’s most comprehensive survey will be released in less than 2 days, on Thursday, September 18th, The one year estimates of the 2013 American Communities Survey (ACS)
provides statistics on more than 40 demographic, social, economic and
housing topics. Some of the topics covered include income, poverty,
health insurance, educational attainment, the commute to work, the
foreign-born population, language spoken at home, ancestry, occupation,
number of vehicles available and housing costs.
These statistics will be
available for the nation, all 50 states, the District of Columbia,
Puerto Rico, every congressional district and all counties, places and
metropolitan areas
with populations of 65,000 or more. For our region that includes the county of Oneida, as well as the Utica- Rome MSA (which is the combination of Herkimer and Oneida Counties).
I will try to get the basic profiles up as soon as I can on Thursday, followed by some analysis of areas of change sometime shortly after that !
