2022 American Community Survey Release

The US Census Bureau released the 2022 1-Year American Community Survey (ACS) data on September 14.

The ACS is a rolling monthly survey that reports socioeconomic characteristics – income, poverty, educational attainment, commuting, etc. – of the population annually.  ACS provides single year estimates for areas with populations over 65,000.  5-year ACS estimates are provided for areas down to sub-county areas such as census tracts and block groups.

The 2018-2022 ACS estimates are scheduled for release on December 7, 2023.
