WITH GREAT TREPIDATION, I have taken it upon myself to at least take a look at what the Herkimer County SINGLE year data MIGHT look like IF SUCH A THING EXISTED. It doesn't. But that doesn't mean it can't be inferred.
Given that the MSA is the combination of Herkimer AND Oneida Counties, and given that we have Oneida Counties numbers on their own, it is PLAUSIBLE to simply subtract Oneida County from the MSA and then you'd be left with what is essentially a Herkimer County Single Year Estimate.
Without getting into a discussion of all the statistical reasons THIS IS PROBLEMATIC, let me just offer the following:
THE DATA BELOW IS NOT A PRODUCT OF THE US CENSUS BUREAU AND DOES NOT REPRESENT A STATISTICALLY SOUND PROCESS FOR DETERMINING THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE POPULATION OF HERKIMER COUNTY.
HOWEVER, IT IS A MATHEMATICALLY ACCURATE REFLECTION OF THE UTICA ROME MSA MINUS THE ONEIDA COUNTY DATA FOR THE 2013 SINGLE YEAR ESTIMATES.
THE RESULTS ARE ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE REMAINING AREA, NAMELY HERKIMER COUNTY.
I would urge caution with these numbers and use them simply as a means for anticipating what the three year estimates, to be released October 23rd, might show us. Below are some of the basic demographic data for what COULD be the Single Year Estimates of Herkimer County.
