Creating Insights .. goto top Most basically, these data/tools enable you to understand the "lay of the land" in demographic-economic terms. These data do this is a way that is unique among all other data resources. The nature of the standardized subject matter makes it possible to compare many types of geo Not a panacea, these data have at least these limitations: • the data are estimates and subject to errors of estimation • the data lag and are based on a recent, but past, statistical survey .. they cannot directly tell us about today or the future • there are more detailed data available using the API or detailed subject matter table.

The U.S. demographic economic insights report tells us that in 2019 (based on 2019 1-year estimates), the total resident population was estimated to be 328,239,523. The median age was 38.5 years. The percent high school graduates was 88.6%. The number of housing units was 139,686,209. The percent owner occupied housing units was 64.1%. These measures are roughly the same today, at the end of 2020, even with the pandemic impact. Some other measures in the report as not as reflective "as of today". While data shown here do not fully summarize the state of the Nation, there provide many insights. The same can said for any of the geographic areas covered. To obtain a better picture of the state of the Nation, we need supplementary subject matter, more up-to-date data and trending data that give clues into what's happening.
