Research Division Releases New Neighborhood Profiles Based on ACS Estimate Data

Jun 14, 2011

The Research Division has created a series of profiles using the 2005-2009 American Community Survey (ACS) estimates, based on the BRA's neighborhood and planning district boundaries. The first 5-year estimates (2005-2009) for the ACS are now available. The ACS is an annual survey conducted by the US Census Bureau using a sample of the total population to create estimates. In order to look at small areas, such as neighborhood data, users must use the 5-year ACS estimates. Check out the profiles.
