Population Statistics Resources
In November, we held a
webinar on population statistics. This was the 3rd webinar this year where we discussed the differences, benefits, and caveats of the Census Bureau’s Population Estimates, the Decennial population data, the American Community Survey 5-year and 1-year estimates, and the CT Department of Public Health population estimates. We have created a population statistics resource page where you can access the various population products, as well as a page for the webinar where you can view the recording and access materials and links from the webinar.
