ACS Data Users Group

Hi Everyone,. My name is Damon. I have recently created a website called . It designed to display ACS data on a map and also a graph. I am hoping to add more features as well as more data. I would love it if people could try it out and give me feedback. Thanks!

I can't get it to work for cities.

What cities are you having trouble with?

Ah, I just figured it out. However, it does seem to have a problem with St. Louis City, which is a county equivalent that's separate from St. Louis county

You need to select "cities" instead of "states" in the pulldown just to the right.

I used Fairfax, VA and it did not work. It worked for the state of VA but not for the county.

Hi, Some data isn't in the ACS data. But in that case there is State and City level data.

Yes I did see the city and it worked.

As people probably know, there are two websites the produce data and amps using the ACS.

There is our website, Social Explorer, which is available at over 300 libraries and has over 500 individual subscribers, along with other institutional subscribers, including businesses, government agenncies etc. We have won several awards for the site, including a webby and two webby honorees. It is available by subscription at www.socialexplorer.com

We also have a set of so-called Single Page Apps, that we did for the Census Bureau, call Census Explorer it is available at census.gov/censusexplorer

There also in poicymap, at www.policymap.com

I don't know which version of the ACS Damon put up, we support one-year, three year and five year, the short and long form from the Census going back to 1790.
