Economic data from 2008 ACS 1-Year Estimates Now Available

The 2008 ACS poverty and income data that was delayed due to a coding error has been released. Shortcut links to the Economic and Narrative profiles for Kentucky Counties and MSA's are available here on the KSDC American Community Survey page. The economic data may be of special interest to people researching the effects of the current economic recession which officially began in December 2007, meaning that the entire 2008 sample was taken during a recession.

This latest ACS data release is from the 1-year sample. On October 27 the Bureau plans to release the newest 3-year estimates for geographic areas with 20,000+ population.
