• 04. Demographic Trends
The Demographic Trends section presents model-based demographic estimates developed by the Census Bureau.
While these data are intended to be consistent with the ACS data described below, they will typically
differ some; even when comparing the ACS 2017 1-year estimate to the model-based 2017 estimate.
.. See related all districts interactive table
.. Updates December 2019.
• 05. ACS Demographic-Economic Estimates
Reference to "with ACS 1-year data" means that 05-08 sections of the report use ACS 1-year estimates (available district 65,000 population and over).
Where there is no ACS reference, ACS 5-year data are used (available for all districts). In general, the 1-year estimates should be used when available (more recent, more accurate) but there are
reasons to prefer the 5-year estimates even when 1-year estimates are available. See more about using 1-year and 5-year estimates.
