Neighborhood Survey Profiles 2007-2011

Data from the American Community Survey (ACS) from 2007 to 2011 aggregated to approximate neighborhoods. The data conforms to Census tracts as defined in 2010. Data on income, poverty, education and employment are presented as an estimate with an associated margin of error.

Unlike Census 2010 which sought to count every individual, the ACS is a monthly survey that is mailed to about 3 million households in the US over a year. The questions on the survey concern income, housing, employment, education, and ancestry. Like a political opinion poll, it extrapolates to the entire population of an area based on this sample and so each estimate has an associated margin of error. Because of the small number of surveys collected each year, the data for small areas like census tracts is merged over a five year period.
