More Improvements to American FactFinder!
The American FactFinder (AFF) tool is one of the most popular sites on the Census web page. On Friday, April 21, we are making several improvements to it. First, for the American Community Survey data, AFF now gives the option of hiding the upper and lower bound columns so that your results display only the estimate.
Second, Census 2000 data tables now link to counts that were corrected (revised) in the Count Resolution (CQR) program through a link above the table. The hyperlink is available on "Detailed Tables" and "Quick Tables" (except in the case of the Island Area Census 2000 data set).
Third, AFF has given its thematic mapping feature the ability to display statistically significant differences in data from those that are not statistically significant. This can be done with a simple click of the "with the statistical significance" in the left panel of the results display.
For more details on each of these improvements, and other changes to AFF, please see the "What's New" section of American FactFinder.
