United States Census Bureau. American Community Survey Summary File: 5-Year Estimates, 2013-2017: B11001. Household Type (Including Living Alone) | Demographic Indicator: Total: | Race/Ethnicity*: All, 2017. Data Planet™ Statistical Datasets: A SAGE Publishing Resource Dataset-ID: 001-066-189 Dataset: Presents an estimate of the numbers of people living in family vs nonfamily households in the United States for the total population and by race and Hispanic/Latino ethnicity of householder. Family households are further segmented as married-couple families, ie, a family in which the householder and his or her spouse of the opposite sex are enumerated as members of the same household; and other families, ie, families with either a male householder and no wife of householder present, or a female householder and no husband of householder present. For family households, estimates are also presented of the numbers of people who related or not related to the householder by birth, marriage, or adoption. A nonfamily householder is a householder living alone or with nonrelatives only. Estimates are reported for specified geographic areas. In most cases, the householder is the person in whose name the home is owned, being bought, or rented. If there is no such person in the household, any adult household member 15 years old and over could be designated as the householder. The American Community Survey (ACS) conducted by the US Census Bureau provides estimates of the characteristics of the population over a specific time period. The ACS collects data from the 50 states, Washington, DC, and Puerto Rico, where it is called the Puerto Rico Community Survey. It is a continuous survey, in which each month a sample of housing unit addresses receives a questionnaire, with approximately 3.5 million addresses surveyed each year. Each year the survey produces data pooled to produce 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year estimates for geographic areas in the US and Puerto Rico, ranging from neighborhoods to congressional districts to the entire nation. Data for each release of the 5-year estimates were collected over a 5-year period ending December 31 of the reference year (eg, data in the 2017 5-year estimates were collected January 1, 2013 - December 31, 2017). The statistics reported represent the characteristics of the population for the entire period vs a specific year within that period. The 5-year estimates are published for areas with populations of all sizes and are the most reliable and precise of the ACS period estimates as well as the most comprehensive, albeit the least current. (The 1-year and 3-year estimates provide data on areas with populations of 65,000+ and 20,000+, respectively. Note that the ACS 3-year estimates were discontinued with the 2011-2013 release). The ACS estimates provide information about the social and economic needs of communities and are used to help determine how more than $675 billion in federal and state funds are distributed each year. It is conducted under the authority of Title 13, United States Code, Sections 141 and 193. Note that counts of the population are provided by the Census of Population and Housing conducted by the US Census Bureau every 10 years; and official estimates of the population are derived from the previous census and from the Census Bureau’s Population Estimates Program. https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/acs/data/summary-file.html Table B11001 is repeated here by nine race and/or Hispanic or Latino groups, identified in United States Census Bureau documentation with a suffix (A-I) that pertains to a specific race/ethnic group. The Census Bureau collects race and Hispanic origin information following the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) standards for collecting and tabulating data on race and ethnicity, issued in 1997. Five race groups are used: white, black or African-American, American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian, and Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander. The Census Bureau also utilizes a “some other race" category for responses that could not be classified in any of the other race categories on the questionnaire. Respondents who reported only one race are shown in these six groups. Individuals who identify with more than one race may choose to provide multiple races in response to the race question. These respondents are included in the "two or more races" population. Data on Hispanics or Latinos, who may be of any race, were obtained from a separate question on ethnicity. Detailed information on the identification of Hispanic or Latino heritage and on the racial classifications used by the Census Bureau can also be found in the US Census Bureau’s American Community Survey/Puerto Rico Community Survey Code List, available at http://www.census.gov/acs/www/data_documentation/documentation_main/.
