Sorting or searching by Universe

Alicia Miao over 9 years ago

Hi everyone, I'm working with ACS 2013 5-year estimates at the census tract level. I am wondering if there is a way to search the FactFinder by Universe and, if so, how that can be done? I would like to create ratios using raw numbers that I'm finding in FactFinder tables, however, these come from different Universes (ie, the numerator I want to use is drawn from the "Civilian noninstitutionalized population" Universe, and the denominator I want to use is drawn from "Families"). Any thoughts, comments, or suggestions are appreciated! Thank you.

Thanks, Patty.

My original post may have been a bit unclear. I want to create a ratio where the numerator and denominator both come from the same universe. However, the two variables I had wanted to use were drawn from different universes, so I need a way to look for variables that come from the same universe (ie, both variables from the universe of families, or both from total civilian pop).
