| | | | Summary: | The Census 2000: Special Tabulation on Aging provides
information for each of the 50 states along with the District of
Columbia and Puerto Rico with a special focus on persons age 60 and
older. Population topics (Tables P001 through P116 for each state and
state equivalent file) include basic population totals, age, sex,
race, Hispanic or Latino origin, households and families, group
quarters, marital status, grandparents as caregivers, ability to speak
English, place of birth, citizenship status, migration, educational
attainment, veteran status, disability, employment status, income, and
poverty status. Household topics (tables H01 through H69) include
tenure (owner occupied or renter occupied), household size, units in
structure, year structure was built, availability of plumbing and
kitchen facilities, and whether meals are included in the rent and
value of home. Both the population and housing subjects may be cross
tabulated. Files are organized according to the ten regions as defined
by the Administration on Aging. Each table provides information at a
number of geographical levels: United States (50 states + DC), state,
Planning and Service Area (PSA -- the geographic area served by a
single area agency on aging), county, county subdivision in 12 states
with a population of 2,500 or more, places with a population of 2,500
or more, and census tract, as well as American Indian and Alaska
Native areas. Also, the urban and rural components of states and PSAs
are shown. The data are in the form of Excel tables. The technical
documentation provides extensive details about such topics as the
tabulation specifications, the geographical levels shown, how to use
the statistical tables, and the measures used to protect
confidentiality. |
