Blog: Exploring the Racial and Ethnic Diversity of Various Age Groups
Written by: Megan Rabe, Senior Analyst for Special Population Statistics; Eric Jensen, Senior Advisor for Population Estimates and Coverage Measurement
The 2020 Census showed that the population under age 18 was more racially and ethnically diverse than the population 18 and over. But how racially and ethnically diverse were other age groups?
The Exploring Age Groups in the 2020 Census interactive data visualization and supplemental tables allow us to answer that question by examining racial and ethnic diversity metrics for several age groups.
This interactive visualization contains data from the 2020 Census Demographic and Housing Characteristics File (DHC). The DHC includes information on sex, age, race, Hispanic origin, families, households, housing and homeownership.
Later this month, we plan to release the Detailed DHC-A, which includes population counts and age and sex statistics for detailed racial and ethnic groups, such as Chinese or Mexican, and statistics for American Indian and Alaska Native tribes and villages like the Navajo Nation or the Native Village of Fort Yukon. Be on the lookout for a new?interactive data visualization?showing maps of the largest and second largest detailed racial and ethnic groups.
