Housing and Land Use Data

Special Note: The Census Bureau did not release its standard 2020 ACS 1-Year estimates because of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Instead, the Census Bureau released "Experimental Data" estimates for 2020, and only at the national and state level, but not the county level. Visit the Census website for more information on the 2020 Experimental Data.
