American Community Survey (ACS)
The Census Bureau is no longer offering the Long Form (SF3) as part of the decennial census of the population of the United States. Instead they are conducting ongoing surveys that they then tabulate at the end of the year, sum to 3-year and 5-year estimates.
The American Community Survey estimates include demographics such as Income, Employment, Commuting, Education, etc. They describe the average characteristics of population and housing over a period time (1, 3 or 5 years from January 1 through December 31). The multi-year estimates do not depict what is going on in any particular year, only what the average value is over the full time period.
