2 What is American FactFinder? Mi Main portal tlto most popular data dt from U.S. US Census Bureau Decennial census American Community Survey Puerto Rico Community Survey Population Estimates Economic Census andsurveys Multiple data products Several indicators across geographies Many indicators for a single geography Occasionally difficult to link data to information Trends What product to use?

3 American FactFinder Fact Sheets quick stats for a town, county or zip code Get data links many of AFF s data products Download center quick downloads of detailed tables for all available states, counties, metro areas, etc.

4 Fact Sheets (Data Profiles) Quick lookup Many common indicators Includes U.S. numbers for comparison

5

6 AggregateProductsarethe most commonly used data products available from the ACS. These include the tables and maps in the American Factfinder, which h describe the distributions for basic and detailed population and household queries.

7 Detailed Tables These are where experienced journalists go first to find the estimates they need. In the American FactFinder, these tables are known as the detailed and custom tables and include the most descriptive and detailed data. These tables feature simple frequency estimates for individual id variables ibl and estimates for combinations (such as poverty status by sex and age). Many variables in the detailed tables, such as age, are subdivided into several categories (such as ages 0 17, 18 64, 65 and older, and so on). Detailed tables can also be obtained through FTP. automatically inserted into a preformatted text.

8 Detailed Tables Select multiple geographies.

9 Detailed Tables Select multiple tables.

10 See multiple geographies side by side Scroll to see other selected tables. Detailed Tables

11 Detailed Tables Collapsed table A detailed table with a reduced amount of detail shown to comply with data release rules. Specifically, it is a detailed table with a "C" prefix for which two or more lines of data from the corresponding "B" prefix table have been collapsed into a single line in the "C" table. Notevery B table has acollapsed version.

12 Downloading from AFF

13 FIPS Codes: A slight diversion FIPS Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) Issued by National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), now updated by American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Useful for mapping and databases

14 Subject Tables These are summarized, topicspecific tables based on data from the detailed tables. They are easier to navigate and can be a better choice if you just need a quick overview, or if you re new to the ACS. Subject tables provide data for some of the most popular topics, such as finances, households, and occupational characteristics for a single geography. If your questions is simple, subject tables may provide the data you need with a minimum of fuss.

15 Subject Tables Select only one geography.

16 Browse by subject or select a table below. Subject Tables

17 Subject Tables

18 Ranking Tables These tables compare the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico according to various characteristics and rank them from highest to lowest. Ranking tables present state data from nearly 100 different characteristics. These tables can also be viewed as charts, using a link on the page. The charts show the 90 percent confidence limits around each estimate as an indication of which rankings may be statistically different (meaning the two estimates probably are truly different.)

19 Browse by subject or select a table below. Ranking Tables

20 Sort alphabetically by State or numerically by Ranking. Ranking Tables

21 Geographic Comparison Tables These are similar to ranking tables but are available for geographical levels that extend below the state level. Unlike ranking tables, they provide margins of error for the estimates but do not tell you whether or not the differences in rankings are statistically significant.

22 Geographic Comparison Tables Select a geographic area (Nation or State), and then the table format, or the geography you want to compare. Here we are choosing to compare all of the counties in Michigan.

23 Geographic Comparison Tables Select only one Comparison Table.

24 Geographic Comparison Tables

25 Data Profiles This product offers tables that provide summaries of several basic social, economic, o c, housing, and demographic characteristics for each geographic unit. While they are less sophisticated than detailed tables, data profiles do a good job of describing the broad characteristics of a geographic area.

26 Data Profiles Select only one geography.

27 Select different profiles to see economic, housing, or demographic data tables. Data Profiles Scroll to see more information.

28 Narrative Profiles Accessible through dataprofiles are narrative profiles, which present the data in plain language and use graphics, similar to a news article. These products contain ti dt data thatt are automatically inserted into a preformatted text.

29 Selected Population Profiles Population profiles are ready made tabulations for specific groups of interest, such as a specific ancestry or race. While other ACS profiles provide general information for a geographic area, the selected population profiles use a similar format to provide basic information for a specific segment of the population.

30 Selected Population Profiles Select multiple geographies.

31 Selected Population Profiles Select the specific population p group you want to look at. You can choose from Race or Ethnic groups, Ancestry groups or Country of Birth.

32 Selected Population Profiles Scroll to see more information.

33 Thematic Maps The maps include two important features in addition to their categorical color schemes. First, users can quickly identify which other geographic units have a significant statistical difference from the selected unit for a particular characteristic. Also, tabular interfaces to the data are readily available as a link on the left of the page.

34 Thematic Maps Select only one geography.

35 Thematic Maps Select only one Thematic Map.

36 Thematic Maps Use the zoom feature to see a more detailed map. Change the geography displayed. Other options include Congressional Districts, Metropolitan and Micropolitan Statistical Areas and Public Use Microdata Areas.

37 Comparison Profiles The comparison profiles show data side by side from the 2006 ACS and the 2007 ACS, indicating where there is a statistically significant difference between the two sets of estimates. Comparison profiles are only available for 1 year estimates.

38 Comparison Profiles Select only one geography. g

39 Comparison Profiles Select different profiles to see economic, housing, or demographic data tables. Compare data across the years. Some data is not able to be compared accurately, tl in this case the 2007 and year estimates.

40 Download Center Use the download center to quickly download large amounts of data. The download center allows users to download up to 50 tables for a single geography g at a time, or you can download all the summary file extracts for all the tables. The individual tables download as zip file with pipe delimited pp text files.
