2005 American Community Survey
The American Community Survey (ACS) is a new nationwide survey designed to provide communities with a fresh look at how they are changing. It will replace the long form in future censuses, and is a critical element in the Census Bureau's reengineered 2010 census plan. The 2005 data products include estimates of demographic, social, and economic characteristics of people, households and housing units for every state in the Nation and most areas with a population of 65,000 or more.
There are important differences between the data collected in the 2000 Census and the American Community Survey data. Please review this comparison of Census 2000 and American Community Survey data before attempting to analyze data from the ACS.
