Prince George's County Population, Housing, and Economic Survey February 2024 Research Study Population, Housing, and Economics New data in this report focus on the data releases from the U.S. Bureau of the Census’s American
Community Survey (ACS) for 2021 estimates as well as data from some other federal agencies (U.S.
Bureau of Labor Statistics and Bureau of Economic Analysis. The ACS data reflect a 5-year sample
survey (2017-2021) and is the latest ACS data available. We urge readers and those who use this
report
as a resource for research not to make direct comparisons to previous editions of the report when
analyzing data about Prince George’s County to avoid errors or misinterpretations. In recent years,
lower response rates to the survey, both locally and nationally, do not allow for statistically
sound,
annual analyses of data about the County or many other locations and jurisdictions. We accommodate
this by providing and analyzing 2021 data in the proper context. For further information and
explanation, please refer to the methodology section at the end of this report.
