The U.S. Census Bureau will offer a two-day embargo period for subscribers to view 2017-2021 American Community Survey (ACS) statistics before their public release.
Embargo subscribers will have access beginning Dec. 6 at 10 a.m. EST.
The ACS provides a wide range of statistics about the nation’s people and housing such as language spoken at home, education, commuting, employment, mortgage status and rent, income, poverty, and health insurance coverage. It is the only source of local estimates for most of the 40-plus topics it covers.
The five-year estimates, set to be released Dec. 8 by 10 a.m. EST, will be available for the nation, all states, the District of Columbia, most county and metropolitan statistical areas, and some places with populations of 65,000 people or more.
When:
Tuesday, Dec. 6, at 10 a.m. EST to Thursday, Dec. 8, at 12:01 a.m. EST
