  • Population and income
  • Poverty and free school lunch
  • Employment in state and local government
  • Labor force participation and unemployment
  • Insurance, disability, obesity and smoking

New: County Data Tables 

Download a table and compare all seventy-seven counties by their change over time in the share of residents without health insurance, for example, or the number of people receiving SSI disability benefits. Find out where your county ranks in terms of median household income, and if your residents’ incomes are rising or falling compared to the rest of the state.
