Description

The Who, What, and Where of America is designed to provide a sampling of key demographic information. It covers the United States, every state, each metropolitan statistical area, and all the counties and cities with a population of 20,000 or more.

Who: Age, Race and Ethnicity, and Household Structure
What: Education, Employment, and Income
Where: Migration, Housing, and Transportation

Each part is preceded by highlights and ranking tables that show how areas diverge from the national norm. These research aids are invaluable for understanding data from the ACS and for highlighting what it tells us about who we are, what we do, and where we live.

Each topic is divided into four tables revealing the results of the data collected from different types of geographic areas in the United States, generally with populations greater than 20,000.

Table A. States
Table B. Counties
Table C. Metropolitan Areas
Table D. Cities

In this edition, you will find social and economic estimates on the ways American communities are changing with regard to the following:

Age and race
Health care coverage
Marital history
Education attainment
Income and occupation
Commute time to work
Employment status
Home values and monthly costs
Veteran status
Size of home or rental unit
