Esri
Esri produces independent demographic and socioeconomic updates and forecasts for Puerto Rico and the United States.
Esri partners with known providers of demographic data, such as the U.S. Census Bureau and the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, to gather up-to-date information about the population, census geography, and demographic and socioeconomic trends of the United States. Esri then adds to this data a variety of resources—such as administrative records, expert methodology, and private resources that capture the nuances of small areas—to update, validate, and supplement this information with additional geographies and variables.
Note:
For all regions beyond the United States, Esri also provides a continuous review, validation, and content standardization for all data supplied by trusted data sources. See the data source topics and individual regional datasets for more information.
