U.S. Census Bureau Releases 2013-2017 ACS 5-Year Estimates

We are pleased to announce the release of the 2013-2017 American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year estimates. The ACS is the most relied-on source for up-to-date social, economic, housing, and demographic information every year. These statistics cover all geographic areas regardless of size, down to the block-group level.

The ACS is the only source of local statistics for most of the 40 topics it covers, such as educational attainment, occupation, language spoken at home, nativity, ancestry, and selected monthly homeowner costs.

Visit the Census Bureau's American FactFinder or use the Census API to start exploring these estimates.

  • Hi Glenn,

    There was an embargo, as in years past. The embargo begins 48 hours prior to the actual data release. With the 2013-2017 ACS 5-year estimates officially released today, the data is now publically-available and no longer embargoed.
    Best,
