More Age Options in the 5-Year Estimates
By Tonya Engst
Treat yourself to two useful new age options.
When you pull up a specific map or chart, if you use Census 5-year estimates, you can now choose more age ranges than before. The two new options are: All Ages and Ages 18–64.
Ages 18–64 can be helpful when analyzing employment, because the Census Bureau uses ages 18–64 as the “working age” for many of its employment estimates.
All Ages will be helpful anytime you want to include all the ages at once.
