Source data

The American Community Survey five-year estimates combine information across the period shown in the measure notes. They are not a current headcount, a forecast or a list of available homes. Population in this panel uses the separate Population Estimates Program observation identified above. Published ACS margins use a 90% confidence level. In the earlier ACS population table, the controlled-estimate notation meant sampling margin of error was not applicable, not zero. See the Census annotation explanation.

Occupied and vacant units divide the total housing-unit estimate. Owner-occupied and renter-occupied counts divide occupied housing units, not all residents or all properties. “Vacant” does not mean advertised for sale or rent. No percentages, projections or derived margins have been calculated here.

Sampling uncertainty matters when comparing places: small differences may not support a meaningful comparison. The Census accuracy guide explains the 90% confidence level and controlled estimates. County averages do not describe an individual household or establish affordability, property condition or suitability.

The previous county statistical table used the U.S. Census Bureau 2024 ACS five-year profile DP05 for population and profile DP04 for housing, covering 2020–2024 and reviewed October 31, 2026. The current panel identifies its source and period separately for each measure. Source annotations are retained, and unavailable margins are not replaced with zero. The boundary map and narrative county guide serve different purposes from the statistical estimates.
