This dataset contains a selection of six socioeconomic indicators of public health significance and a “hardship index,” by Chicago community area, for the years 2008 – 2012. The indicators are the percent of occupied housing units with more than one person per room (i.e., crowded housing); the percent of households living below the federal poverty level; the percent of persons in the labor force over the age of 16 years that are unemployed; the percent of persons over the age of 25 years without a high school diploma; the percent of the population under 18 or over 64 years of age (i.e., dependency); and per capita income. Indicators for Chicago as a whole are provided in the final row of the table.

The Annual Social and Economic Supplement or March CPS supplement is the primary source of detailed information on income and work experience in the United States. Numerous publications based on this survey are issued each year by the Bureaus of Labor Statistics and Census. A public-use microdata file is available for private researchers, who also produce many academic and policy-related documents based on these data. The Annual Social and Economic Supplement is used to generate the annual Population Profile of the United States, reports on geographical mobility and educational attainment, and detailed analysis of money income and poverty status. The labor force and work experience data from this survey are used to profile the U.S. labor market and to make employment projections. To allow for the same type of in-depth analysis of hispanics, additional hispanic sample units are added to the basic CPS sample in March each year. Additional weighting is also performed so that estimates can be made for households and families, in addition to persons.

Abstract

The 2008 Sudan Population and Housing Census is the 5th Sudan Population and Housing Census conducted, and one of the most important censuses in the history of Sudan. It is based on the comprehensive peace agreement. It provides hope for Sudanese people to build a new Sudan, with a fair share in power, resources, services and development. To achieve these goals a population census with a high accuracy and a full coverage is a necessity.

As mentioned above the census data is to be collected in two forms. A short form to be used for 90% of EAs with a minimum number of questions ( 11 questions ) and to satisfy the basic population data needed for the election and other basic demographic needs. A long form to be administered in10% of the enumeration areas (EAS) and will provide all other standard social and economic information. The details of these questionnaires are following closely the UN principles and recommendations for censuses as decided by the TWG. That had put sometimes the TWG in conflicts with the governing councils and politicians at the national and regional levels. For e.g. the MOC had requested the deletion of the questions on ethnicity after its endorsement by the PCC in its second meeting. The PCC decided to raise it to the Presidency as the TWG had reconfirmed its technical importance. Based on the understanding that ethnicity and religion are causes of conflicts in Sudan, the Presidency decided to delete these questions. It was suggested as a compromise to use the question on previous residence to give information about Southern people living in the North. The South Sudan Population Census Council (SSPCC) requested an amplification of the question to reflect household origin from the nine 1956 Provinces (Northern, Khartoum, Central, Eastern, Kordofan, Darfur, Upper Nile, Bahr Elghazal and Equatoria) in stead of (north/south). But that was not accepted by many members of the PCC and some politicians in the north who believe that it is another way of bringing back the ethnicity question. The SSPCC then insisted on the re-inclusion of the ethnicity and religion questions. That led to a lot of delays in printing the questionnaires. In order to get out of this dilemma the TWG with support of UNFPA had decided to stick firmly to the UN standards. That is to stick to the previous residence question (origin) which is core one and to neglect the ethnicity question which is an optional one.

Cleaning operations

For census data entry the Technical Working Group (TWG) decided with endorsement of the PCC that the data entry was to be decentralized. Nine centers were suggested. These are the capitals of old British provinces. The TWG also decided that the short and long forms to be scanned using optical mark recognition (OMR) technology. That decision was based on the field visits to some African countries which used the same technology in their censuses. For quality assurance a high level team from both CBS and SSCCSE were sent to DRS Company in UK to ensure that the forms were correctly printed in both Arabic and English so as to avoid occurrence of any errors or faults during enumeration and the scanning process. It was decided that the census data was to be processed, the results produced and the tabulation prepared centrally. The national and regional tabulation to be analyzed and published using different data dissemination methods such as:-printed reports, electronic media (websites, Emails), data archiving, seminars and workshops. The use of internet as another tool for data dissemination was also suggested.

UNITS IDENTIFIED: - Dwellings: No - Vacant units: No - Households: Yes - Individuals: Yes - Group quarters: No - Special populations: Yes (Homeless, refugees, camps)

UNIT DESCRIPTIONS: - Dwellings: A building is an independent free-standing structure irrespective of its construction material, composed of one or more rooms. - Households: A household consists of a person or a group of persons who live together in the same housing unit or part of it and who consider themselves as one unit in terms of the provision of food and/or other essentials of living for the group. When most of the members of such a group are related by blood (i.e., biologically) the group shall be referred to as a Private Household for the purpose of the census. On the other hand when the group (i.e., household as defined earlier) consists of members who are not related by blood and they are more than 10, they will be considered as Non-Institutional Collective Household. Note that if the group consists of 10 or less members, it should be considered a private household. - Group quarters: An institution is usually a set of premises used to house a large number of people who are not related by blood or marriage but bound together by a common objective or personal interest (e.g., universities, boarding houses, hospitals, army barracks, camps, prisons, hotels, etc.)

In 2023, there were around 30.85 million people younger than 15 in the Latin American country, down from 31.25 million in the previous year. Most of Mexico's inhabitants fell within the range of 15 to 64 years of age. The age group of 65+ years old is the only segment of the Mexican population that has been increasing constantly in the past decade.

Abstract

The Government of Liberia considered the 2008 National Population and Housing Census (NPHC) a necessary prerequisite for assessing the socio-economic needs of its population and, hence, it attaches great importance to the determination of the current numbers and distribution of the population in pursuance of its program for national development. Therefore, the census organization provided for participation at all levels of Government, civil society and non-governmental organizations through the formation of committees, working in close collaboration with and under the direct supervision of authority from the Census Commission.

The mapping exercise that preceded the census canvassed the whole country and drew all boundaries of the administrative hierarchy and geographically positioned the various localities. Hence, the 2008 Population and Housing Census (NPHC) will, to a certain extent, bridge the statistics gaps mentioned above by offering national and sub-national baseline statistics and updated demographic indicators.

Globally, the methodology of census taking has been improving over the years and the 2008 NPHC portrays these improvements. However, there are two basic additions to this census; foremost, the shift from the de jure censuses of 1962, 1974 and 1984 to a de facto census in 2008 and, secondly, the inclusion of an Agricultural Module. The de jure census records usual residents of the household while the de facto one records persons who spent a reference night in the household. De facto censuses are easier to conduct and, hence, most countries adopt them. Liberia being a predominantly agricultural country, the 'Agricultural Module' was introduced with the aim of generating a sampling frame that will be used to design and implement agricultural surveys in the future.

The enumeration started on the morning of 21st of March, 2008 and ended in the evening of 30th March, 2008. It was done by trained enumerators who administered a standard questionnaire to the household heads or any other knowledgeable household members. Arrangements were made to ensure that special categories of the population were enumerated; for example, street children who do not live in formal households, in-mates in hotels and transients at air and sea ports.

Cleaning operations

The processing of data collected in a census constitutes one of the most important and challenging activities that have to be undertaken efficiently and expeditiously in order to justify the immense resources invested in a census. This activity entailed several processes: manual editing of the questionnaires after enumeration, data capture, data cleaning and validation, and finally tabulation. Intelligence character recognition (ICR) technology will be employed for data capture.

Government’s commitment to provide provisional results within two and half months after enumeration and final results within another six months greatly influenced the strategies and actions adopted at every stage of data processing in order to adhere to the commitment.

Household

UNITS IDENTIFIED: - Dwellings: No - Vacant units: No - Households: Yes - Individuals: Yes - Group quarters: Yes (institutional) - Special populations: Yes (homeless)

UNIT DESCRIPTIONS: - Dwellings: A building is generally a single structure on the ground. It is covered by a roof and usually enclosed within external walls or with common dividing walls with adjacent buildings. In some areas the very nature of construction of houses is such that there may not be any wall. Sometimes a building is made up of more than one component unit which are used or likely to be used as dwellings (residences) or as establishments such as shops, business houses, offices, factories, workshops, work-sheds, schools, places of entertainment and places of worship or as go-downs, stores, animal sheds, etc. - Households: A household is a group of persons who commonly live together and would take their meals from a common kitchen unless the exigencies of work prevented any of them from doing so. There may be a household of persons related by blood, a household of unrelated persons or a mix of both. - Group quarters: An institutional household is a household of unrelated persons like boarding houses, messes, hostels, residential hotels, rescues homes, jails, pagodas, etc. It should be noted that if a group of persons who are unrelated to each other live in a building/structure, but do not have their meals from a common kitchen, then they would not constitute an institutional household.

How many people are on social media? Social media usage is one of the most popular online activities and in 2021, 82 percent of the population in the United States had a social networking profile, representing a two percent increase from the 80 percent usage reach in the previous year. This equals approximately 223 million U.S. social media users as of 2020. Global social media access

According to estimates, the number of worldwide social media users reached 4.2 billion in January 2021. The overall most popular social network based on active users is the American market leader Facebook. In January 2021, Facebook had some 2.74 billion accounts, followed by YouTube and WhatsApp with roughly 2.3 billion and two billion users respectively. The regions with the highest penetration of social media users are Western and Northern Europe.

Social media audiences in the United States Although knowing how many people use social media is a powerful indicator of the tremendous influence such websites and apps have in our day to day life, how people are using them and who these users are is also telling. A report on social media usage released in 2019 shows that among Americans, younger online audiences were more likely to use social networks than older generations. Social media users in the United States use different social networks for a wide range of purposes. In a February 2019 survey, Instagram was the top social network for viewing photos whereas Facebook was more popular for sharing content.
