What is demography?

Demographic is the data of a population based on factors such as age, race, and gender. In addition to the basic information, it may also be used as basic data on some social characteristics of the individual or households, including population change, population mobility, etc.

Why does demographic data matter?

Demographic data not only reflects the situation of individuals, families, and households but also provides feedback and forecasts on social and economic development. In addition, more detailed data by state, city, or zip code can provide information about different areas, which not only provides communities with information to support future planning, but also helps governments make decisions about financial assistance, health care subsidies, or other policies. In fact, demographic data affects almost every aspect of your life, including the taxes you pay, the business decisions a company makes, the education policies of your children, etc.

Where does the data come from?

Demographic data comes from U.S. Census Bureau, 2016-2020 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates. Updated December 2021.
