Filling out the Survey from the American Community Survey
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Since 1940, the long form of the Decennial Census was used to collect detailed social, economic, and housing characteristics of our communities and counties. Today, this has been replaced by the American Community Survey (ACS). This page provides links to websites and resources that provide help in filling out the questionnaire for the American Community Survey.
For more information about the American Community Survey, go to the Census Bureau's website: http://www.census.gov/acs/www/
