ACS Calculator
The Census Bureau’s American Community Survey (ACS) is a great source for detailed population and household characteristics, giving estimates and margins of error for many aspects of the American population.  However, sometimes users must blend ACS results in order to arrive at the exact measure needed – hard to do correctly if users are not familiar with statistics. 

 ACS Calculator

This Excel based file contains several “calculators” that let users enter official ACS results from the Census Bureau and come away with approximations of the true measure needed.

Census/ACS Assistance

The State Data Center is a networked partnership of several Oklahoma agencies, including the Oklahoma Department of Libraries which serves as the SDC’s Coordinating Agency.  Steve Beleu with the ODL has prepared three files designed to assist users with the best practices for using American Community Survey data from the US Census Bureau.  You can access these files by using the following links.
