New December 2012. The U.S. national scope Census Tracts Demographic-Economic Dataset contains approximately 600 subject matter items tabulated for each census tract organized into four subject matter groups:
  • General Demographics
  • Social Characteristics (this section)
  • Economic Characteristics
  • Housing Characteristics

These data are based on the American Community Survey (ACS) 2011 5-year estimates. See notes on importance of these data. See similar ranking tables: Cities | School Districts | State-Metro-County | ZIP Codes.

Use the interactive ranking table in this section to view, query, rank, compare social characteristics of the population, households and families in these areas. The scroll box shown below lists each of the subject matter items available for each area via the ranking table. The number at the left of the subject matter item is also used as the short name for the subject matter item in the column header in the ranking table.

Use the S&O Server for more detail, alternative formats and data extraction.

Examples
To determine the percent population high school graduate or higher (S066) and percent population with bachelor's degree or higher (S067) for a census tract of interest ... key in the full census tract code (e.g. HI0030019004 for a tract in Honolulu County, HI) in the Select Area edit box below the ranking table, then click the Select Area button. When the tract displays, scroll right to items S066 and S067 in the ranking table. 95.9% (S066) and 44.1% (S067) for tract HI003001904. Map at right shows tract 001904.

Importance of these Data
These data provide "richer" demographic-economic characteristics for national scope census tracts. While Census 2010 provides data similar to those items in the General Demographics section, only ACS 2010 and ACS 2011 sourced data provide details on topics such as income and poverty, labor force and employment, housing value and costs, educational participation and attainment, language spoken at home, among many related items. The approximate 600 items accessible via the tract dataset are supplemented by a wide range of additional subject matter. ACS 2012 census tract data become available in December 2013.
