About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the Rochester population over the last 20 plus years. It lists the population for each year, along with the year on year change in population, as well as the change in percentage terms for each year. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population change of Rochester across the last two decades. For example, using this dataset, we can identify if the population is declining or increasing. If there is a change, when the population peaked, or if it is still growing and has not reached its peak. We can also compare the trend with the overall trend of United States population over the same period of time.

Key observations

In 2023, the population of Rochester was 207,274, a 0.61% decrease year-by-year from 2022. Previously, in 2022, Rochester population was 208,546, a decline of 0.97% compared to a population of 210,581 in 2021. Over the last 20 plus years, between 2000 and 2023, population of Rochester decreased by 12,552. In this period, the peak population was 219,826 in the year 2000. The numbers suggest that the population has already reached its peak and is showing a trend of decline. Source: U.S. Census Bureau Population Estimates Program (PEP).

Comprehensive demographic and housing statistics for ZIP code 14653 in Rochester, New York.

This map is made using content created and owned by the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development (Esri user HUD.Official.Content). The map uses their Low to Moderate Income Population by Tract layer, filtered for only census tracts in Monroe County, NY where at least 51% of households earn less than 80 percent of the Area Median Income (AMI). The map is centered on Rochester, NY, with the City of Rochester, NY border added for context. Users can zoom out to see the Revitalization Areas for the broader county region.The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program requires that each CDBG funded activity must either principally benefit low- and moderate-income persons, aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight, or meet a community development need having a particular urgency because existing conditions pose a serious and immediate threat to the health or welfare of the community and other financial resources are not available to meet that need. With respect to activities that principally benefit low- and moderate-income persons, at least 51 percent of the activity's beneficiaries must be low and moderate income. For CDBG, a person is considered to be of low income only if he or she is a member of a household whose income would qualify as "very low income" under the Section 8 Housing Assistance Payments program. Generally, these Section 8 limits are based on 50% of area median. Similarly, CDBG moderate income relies on Section 8 "lower income" limits, which are generally tied to 80% of area median. These data are derived from the 2011-2015 American Community Survey (ACS) and based on Census 2010 geography.Please refer to the Feature Layer for date of last update.Data Dictionary: DD_Low to Moderate Income Populations by Tract

Dataset SummaryAbout this data:This feature layer symbolizes the relative population counts for the City's 12 Data Divisions, aggregating the tract-level estimates from the the Census Bureau's American Community Survey 2021 five-year samples.If you click on each Data Division, you can view other Census demographic information about that Data Division in addition to the population count.About the Census Data:The data comes from the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey's 2017-2021 five-year samples. The American Community Survey (ACS) is an ongoing survey conducted by the federal government that provides vital information annually about America and its population. Information from the survey generates data that help determine how more than $675 billion in federal and state funds are distributed each year.For more information about the Census Bureau's ACS data and process of constructing the survey, visit the ACS's About page.About the City's Data Divisions:As a planning analytic tool, an interdepartmental working group divided Rochester into 12 “data divisions.” These divisions are well-defined and static so they are positioned to be used by the City of Rochester for statistical and planning purposes. Census data is tied to these divisions and serves as the basis for analyses over time. As such, the data divisions are designed to follow census boundaries, while also recognizing natural and human-made boundaries, such as the River, rail lines, and highways. Historical neighborhood boundaries, while informative in the division process, did not drive the boundaries. Data divisions are distinct from the numerous neighborhoods in Rochester. Neighborhood boundaries, like quadrant boundaries, police precincts, and legislative districts often change, which makes statistical analysis challenging when looking at data over time. The data division boundaries, however, are intended to remain unchanged. It is hoped that over time, all City data analysts will adopt the data divisions for the purpose of measuring change over time throughout the city.Dictionary: Division: The name of the data division. Total_Popu: The total population of the division. The population is calculated from the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey 2021 five-year samples. Percentage: Represents the percentage of City of Rochester residents which live in the division. Area_in_Sq: The total area in square miles of a given division.
