Access New, Easy-to-Use, Data Finding Tools at www.census.gov
Need to find information in a hurry from our home page? See the Data Finders-tools that provide access to data direct from the home page (right side). You'll see the Population Finder (also in American FactFinder, see below), QuickFacts (for state, county, and town profiles), and the Economic Briefing Room. Other links have relocated to the left side of the page, such as "About Us," "Regional Offices," and "Doing Business With Us". The Subjects A-Z index can now be accessed from the top right of the home page, along with our site search, FAQs, and Help page. Also note the Help Page provides access to resources for users new to the Census Bureau web site and products.
Get quick data on population trends for an area! The new "Population Finder" tool is available on the Census Bureau's homepage, and on the American FactFinder site on the top left corner. This handy tool allows you to select a state, county, city, or ZIP Code area and get the latest population estimate as well as 1990 and 2000 census counts. You're also just a click away from rankings for these areas according to population size.
In addition, click on "Search by address" in the American FactFinder and then enter an address. You can get quick access to data about the tract the address is in plus all the tracts in the county. These are just a few of the enhancements we've made to FactFinder. Click here for more.
