For the past several years the Census Bureau has released data products from the American Community Survey (ACS) in the form of 1-year estimates.

The Census Bureau’s American Community Survey (ACS) released its first multiyear estimates based on ACS data collected from 2005 through 2007 today. These three-year estimates will be available for geographic areas with a population of 20,000 or more, including the nation, all states and the District of Columbia, all congressional districts, approximately 1,800 counties, and 900 metropolitan and micropolitan statistical areas, among others.
