Learn how to navigate census.gov to access the most current and relevant demographic, socioeconomic, and housing statistics about your community using existing and new data products and tools. During this session we will explore sources of data, frequency, and various levels of geography data is released. With a focus on the American Community Survey (ACS), we will look at narrative profiles and quick facts about local, county, state, and national level data. Attendees will learn how to search and navigation features in data.census.gov as well as how to download tables and create thematic maps.
