-- 2008-12 5-Year Estimates There are several things to like about the new American Community Survey 2012 (ACS 2012) 5-year demographic-economic data (available 12/17/13). These data are one year more recent data than released in December 2012 (the ACS 2011 5-year data). As a result, they provide an updated and more current picture. Two, this is a third year sequel to having Census 2010 vintage census tract and block group data available. This de facto three year mini-time series enables a start to examine trends. Three, these estimates are centric to mid-2010 and thus roughly comparable to what would have been "richer demographics" from Census 2010 (had the long-form not been eliminated). This enables a rough comparison between 2000 and 2010 (it will be the best opportunity ever). These data provide unique and powerful measures that facilitate development of decision-making information. This section is focused on ACS 2012 5-year estimates data access and use, applications using these data and the integration and analysis of these data with other data. Census 2010 and ACS 2012 provide the most current Census-sourced demographics for wide-ranging geography. News & Updates -- scroll section

The American Community Survey (ACS) is a nationwide survey conducted by the Census Bureau designed to provide more frequently updated demographics for national and sub-national geography than provided by the decennial census program. The ACS collects and produces population and housing information every year instead of every ten years The ACS currently has an annual sample size of about 3.5 million addresses. ACS is integrally connected with Census 2010.
