  1. Asian American is a broad term

    I work for a non profit in Chicago that serves the Korean American community. I need detailed information on Korean Americans in different counties. If I use Asian Americans my data is incorrect. It is frustrating, but I know that it is the fault of the setup of these surveys. They do not consider all topics when being detailed on ethnicity...thank you for the data on this site, data.census.gov....well, 2010-2015 data is pretty old and it does not help to identify needs of this community.

  3. Easily view density-based statistics

    Using the map feature it's easy to switch between totals and percentages; it would be nice if seeing density based statistics were as easy. For instance if I'm looking for a location to open a commuter-focused bike shop, I do appreciate being able to see the totals and percentages of people who bike to work but areal density would probably be more helpful.

  4. only use one data source

    Right now you have cities over 65,000 under the new ACS 2021 1-year data, and all others under the ACS 2020 5-year data. Unfortunately, these are two separate data sources so for statistical analysis, it's improper to compare, say, Cleveland with adjacent smaller suburbs. The database mixes them up, but I would keep ACS 2020 5-year until the 2017-2021 ACS 5-year Estimates come out in December and then switch to that, so that all census data is sourcing from the same estimates.

  5. Location Headings and Add Metro Comparison

    When retrieving an embed code, adding an option to include or exclude the location heading above a given infographic would be great for those of us using multiple infographics for a single location on a webpage (it gets repetitive). The existing subject title above a chart is more critical and most of the time we can just note the location of the data with our own webpage heading. ALSO, when reporting on stats for geographies like counties, adding metro area to the state and country comparisons would be awesome! Thanks for the great content.

  6. Real and Believable Statistics

    How can you possible publish that MN District 5 is made up of 62% white ? This type of erroneous information is as ridiculous as the news media.

  9. Include homeless populations.

    In california it says we have 13+ million households. And that we have 14+ million housing units. That leaves us with over a million vacant units. Are the people who live in hotels, motels cars and rvs included. And are hotels motels and inn counted as part of the housing units? Because they should not be. Unless they are extended stays because they have no other place to rent. Not long term business trips. But used as actually housing. If there are over a million vacant units and we don't have that many households to fill them then why are…

  10. THE 2019 Data Profile for Philadelphia 5-Year estimates

    The Black population under these criteria - Black alone 40.8% or 41% ; the Black alone or in combination with another race -44.1% using your limited criteria Barack Obama would have been grouped into the amorphous Two or more racial category. the more complete and accurate figure would be the 44.1%

  11. add racial/ethnicity data by county

    You seem to break down county population in numerous ways, but not by race/ethnicity. An odd omission.

  13. Add ACS 5-year estimates

    1-year estimates are more susceptible to bad data. I'd love to be able to use Census Reporter, but can't confidently cite the ACS 1-year estimates in reports.

  17. Provide data at the level that is useful to rural communities.

    Federal rural development grant programs have stringent requirements for establishing eligibility for funding. Unfortunately, the data sets required to be used to establish eligibility render most rural communities "statistically invisible" For example: To find a community of 600 in a rural county of a western state, the closest you can get is census tract, block group or zip code, all of which are hundreds, sometimes thousands of square miles larger than the rural community needing federal assistance. This skews income data as well as the ability to identify the rural, unincorporated community in question.

    It would be much more useful…

  20. Identify similar cities for geographic profiles

    I would like to be able to easily see entities that have similar characteristics to the one I search for. Similarity could be restricted to identical entity types (places, metro areas, districts)

    For example, I search for Tucson, AZ (place) https://censusreporter.org/profiles/16000US0477000-tucson-az/

    I would like to see a list of similar Places could be presented for the major categories/buckets displayed:
    Population
    Economic
    Housing
    Social
