Kentucky ACS Data
The American Community Survey (ACS) is a new nationwide survey designed to provide communities a fresh look at how they are changing. It is intended to eliminate the need for the long form in the 2010 Census. The ACS collects information from U.S. households similar to what was collected on the Census 2000 long form, such as income, commute time to work, home value, veteran status, and other important data.
Note: If you would like information about comparing 2006 ACS data with 2005 ACS or 2000 Census Data, the Cenus Bureau Guide for comparing the ACS data gives an overview of the issues . A handy quick reference for using the current and older data sets is available at the Detailed Information On 2006 ACS Data Comparisons.
