Population Estimates of All Areas by Age, Race & Gender
Database Detail
| Name | Population Estimates of All Areas by Age, Race & Gender |
| Summary | Population by age, race, and gender for states, counties, cities, ZIP Codes, and Census Tracts |
| Additional Background |
This database provides population estimates by age, race, and gender for states, counties, cities, ZIP Code Tabulation Areas (ZCTAs) (which we call ZIP Codes), and Census Tracts. Population data are based on 5-year American Community Survey (ACS) estimates, which are described in detail here. 5-year ACS estimates reflect a five-year data collection period. For example, the year 2023 represents the 5 calendar years ending 2023, i.e., from January 2019 through December 2023). These 5-year estimates have larger samples and smaller margins of error than 1-year estimates, but they are less current because the larger samples include data that were collected in earlier years. Another advantage of 5-year estimates is that these include all areas, including those with less than 65,000 population, which are not included in 1-year ACS surveys.
Data for ZCTAs reflect geographic areas created by the U.S. Census Bureau to represent the approximate area covered by a ZIP Code. ZCTAs roughly corresponds to a ZIP Code's geographic region but are not exact matches. For additional information on ZCTAs, see here.

APA
Format or style, from the American Psychological Association, is commonly used for footnotes in behavioral and social science publications. APA citation is an author-year-system. It is one of the most common styles used and taught at colleges and high schools. See here for more details, including APA formatting for bibliographies.Chicago
Format or style (also known as Turabian), created by the University of Chicago, is commonly used for footnotes in history, business, and fine arts and occasionally in the humanities, sciences, and social sciences. The Chicago style has two systems of citation. The author-date system (most common in social sciences and sciences) cites sources parenthetically in the text. The notes and bibliography system (most common in humanities) cites sources in numbered footnotes or endnotes which correspond to a superscript number in the text. See here for more details, including Chicago formatting for bibliographies.MLA
Modern Language Association (MLA) format or style is most commonly used for footnotes in the language arts, cultural studies, liberal arts, and humanities. MLA uses short parenthetical citations within the text that are linked to an alphabetical list of work cited at the end of the document. MLA commonly cites using this format: author's last name, first name, title, publication, edition or chapter, and year. See here for more details, including MLA formatting for bibliographies.AMA
American Medical Association (AMA) format or style is most commonly used for footnotes in medicine, biomedical research, nursing, dentistry, and other life sciences. AMA uses numerical superscript for citing sources in-text and refers to a list at the end of the work. These references appear in sequential order of when the sources were cited, instead of alphabetical order. See here for more details, including AMA formatting for bibliographies.
