The American Community Survey (ACS) is now the place to go for data on the social, economic, and housing characteristics of our counties and communities. As with any new data source, those from the ACS differ in many ways from what we are used to. This page provides links to resources and publications to help us understand and accurately use data from this new data source.
For more information about the American Community Survey, go to the Census Bureau's website: http://www.census.gov/acs/www/
