Data on marriages and divorces at national level are transmitted by the National Statistics Institutes on voluntary basis in the context of the annual demographic data collections in the field of demography carried out by Eurostat.

The POPSTAT (population statistics) questionnaire collects annual mandatory and voluntary demographic data from the National Statistical Institutes. It is the most in-depth annual national and regional demographic and migration data collection. The data relate to populations, births, deaths, immigrants, emigrants, marriages and divorces, and is broken down into several categories (Article 3 of Regulation (EU) No 1260/2013 and Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 862/2007).

The completeness of the demographic data collected on a voluntary basis depends on the availability and completeness of information provided by the National Statistical Institutes.

About this dataset

This dataset, titled United States Marriage Status 2005-2017, provides detailed information on marriage rates and population estimates in the United States. The data is sourced from the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey 1-Year Estimates.

The dataset includes several key attributes that offer insights into different aspects of marriage status. These attributes include Year, Gender, Age Group, Metric, Estimated Percent, and Estimated Population.

The Year attribute represents the year in which the data was collected, spanning from 2005 to 2017. It allows for analysis of trends and changes in marriage rates over time.

The Gender attribute categorizes the population groups based on their gender. This information helps explore any variations or differences between male and female populations in terms of marital status.

Age Group attribute classifies individuals into specific age categories within the population. By segmenting the data based on age groups, it becomes possible to analyze how different age demographics contribute to overall marriage rates.

Metric serves as a descriptor for specific measurements or indicators being reported within this dataset. This attribute provides further context for understanding different aspects related to marriage status and its calculation methods.

Estimated Percent denotes the estimated percentage of a particular population group falling into a specific category related to marital status. It offers valuable insights into relative proportions within each demographic group.

Estimated Population showcases estimated count figures representing various subgroups' populations classified by gender, age groupings, and metric categories specified previously. These estimates allow researchers to explore potential correlations between population sizes and marriage rates across various segments of society over time period covered by this dataset.

Overall, this comprehensive United States Marriage Status dataset provides a valuable resource for analyzing trends in marriage rates while considering gender demographics, age distributions within these populations along with respective metrics indicating changes occurring over time periods marked since 2005 until 2017 (date-range excluding exact dates provided). By exploring relationships among these factors using reliable census data available through American Community Survey 1-Year Estimates, researchers can gain deep understanding of marriage status dynamics in the United States
