About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the Monterey County 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 Monterey County 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 Monterey County was 430,723, a 0.50% decrease year-by-year from 2022. Previously, in 2022, Monterey County population was 432,884, a decline of 0.98% compared to a population of 437,158 in 2021. Over the last 20 plus years, between 2000 and 2023, population of Monterey County increased by 27,609. In this period, the peak population was 438,322 in the year 2020. 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).

The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. Face refers to the areal (polygon) topological primitives that make up MTDB. A face is bounded by one or more edges; its boundary includes only the edges that separate it from other faces, not any interior edges contained within the area of the face. The Topological Faces Shapefile contains the attributes of each topological primitive face. Each face has a unique topological face identifier (TFID) value. Each face in the shapefile includes the key geographic area codes for all geographic areas for which the Census Bureau tabulates data for both the 2020 Census and the annual estimates and surveys. The geometries of each of these geographic areas can then be built by dissolving the face geometries on the appropriate key geographic area codes in the Topological Faces Shapefile.

Estimate, Median Age by Sex, Total Population (5-year estimate) in Monterey County, CA was 35.30000 Years of Age in January of 2023, according to the United States Federal Reserve. Historically, Estimate, Median Age by Sex, Total Population (5-year estimate) in Monterey County, CA reached a record high of 35.30000 in January of 2023 and a record low of 32.50000 in January of 2009.

The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) System (MTS). The MTS represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. The Address Range Features shapefile contains the geospatial edge geometry and attributes of all unsuppressed address ranges for a county or county equivalent area. The term "address range" refers to the collection of all possible structure numbers from the first structure number to the last structure number and all numbers of a specified parity in between along an edge side relative to the direction in which the edge is coded. Single-address address ranges have been suppressed to maintain the confidentiality of the addresses they describe. Multiple coincident address range feature edge records are represented in the shapefile if more than one left or right address ranges are associated to the edge. This shapefile contains a record for each address range to street name combination. Address ranges associated to more than one street name are also represented by multiple coincident address range feature edge records. Note that this shapefile includes all unsuppressed address ranges compared to the All Lines shapefile (edges.shp) which only includes the most inclusive address range associated with each side of a street edge. The TIGER/Line shapefiles contain potential address ranges, not individual addresses. The address ranges in the TIGER/Line shapefiles are potential ranges that include the full range of possible structure numbers even though the actual structures may not exist.

Blocks (Census Blocks) are statistical areas bounded by visible features, such as streets, roads, streams, and railroad tracks, and by nonvisible boundaries, such as selected property lines and city, township, school district, and county limits and short line-of-sight extensions of streets and roads. Generally, census blocks are small in area; for example, a block in a city bounded on all sides by streets. Census blocks in suburban and rural areas may be large, irregular, and bounded by a variety of features, such as roads, streams, and transmission lines. In remote areas, census blocks may encompass hundreds of square miles. Census blocks cover the entire territory of the United States, Puerto Rico, and the Island Areas. Census blocks nest within all other tabulated census geographic entities and are the basis for all tabulated data.Population and Housing Unit CountsThese state based files have the population and housing unit count by block from the 2010 Census. These files are available for the 50 states and the District of Columbia only. The most current census blocks are from 2020.

The MTS represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. The Address Range Relationship File contains the attributes of each address range. The term "address range" refers to the collection of all possible structure numbers from the first structure number to the last structure number and all numbers of a specified parity in between along an edge side relative to the direction in which the edge is coded. The address ranges in the TIGER/Line files are potential ranges that include the full range of possible structure numbers even though the actual structures may not exist. Each address range applies to a single edge and has a unique address range identifier (ARID) value. The edge to which an address range applies can be determined by linking the address range to the All Lines shapefile (edges.shp) using the permanent topological edge identifier (TLID) attribute. Multiple address ranges can apply to the same edge since an edge can have multiple address ranges. Note that the most inclusive address range associated with each side of a street edge already appears in the All Lines Shapefile (edges.shp). The TIGER/Line files contain potential address ranges, not individual addresses.

The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) System (MTS). The MTS represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. The Feature Names Relationship File contains a record for each feature name and any attributes associated with it. Each feature name can be linked to the corresponding edges that make up that feature in the All Lines shapefile (edges.shp), where applicable to the corresponding address range or ranges in the Address Range Relationship File (addr.dbf), or to both files. Although this file includes feature names for all linear features, not just road features, the primary purpose of this relationship file is to identify all street names associated with each address range. An edge can have several feature names; an address range located on an edge can be associated with one or any combination of the available feature names (an address range can be linked to multiple feature names). The address range is identified by the address range identifier (ARID) attribute, which can be used to link to the Address Range Relationship File (addr.dbf). The linear feature is identified by the linear feature identifier (LINEARID) attribute, which can be used to relate the address range back to the name attributes of the feature in the Feature Names Relationship File or to the feature record in the Primary Roads, Primary and Secondary Roads, or All Roads shapefiles. The edge to which a feature name applies can be determined by linking the feature name record to the All Lines shapefile (edges.shp) using the permanent edge identifier (TLID) attribute. The address range identifier(s) (ARID) for a specific linear feature can be found by using the linear feature identifier (LINEARID) from the Feature Names Relationship File through the Address Range/Feature Name Relationship File (addrfn.dbf).

Census Tracts:Census tracts are designed to be relatively homogeneous units with respect to population characteristics, economic status, and living conditions. They are used for the presentation of census data and comparison across different census years. The boundaries of census tracts generally follow visible and identifiable features, and they do not cross state or county lines.This feature class is essential for detailed demographic analysis, urban planning, and resource allocation. It is available for public use and can be accessed through platforms like ArcGIS.Population Range: Each census tract generally contains between 1,200 to 8,000 people, with an optimum size of 4,000 people.Data Fields:Tract Code (TRACTCE20): 6-digit code identifying the census tract.State Code (STATEFP20): 2-digit code identifying the state.County Code (COUNTYFP20): 3-digit code identifying the county.ACS Data:The 2022 American Community Survey (ACS) Tract Data provides detailed demographic, social, economic, and housing statistics for small geographic areas, such as census tracts.Detailed Tables: Provide the most granular estimates on all selected topics for City of Salinas.Data Types: The data includes estimates on various topics such as population demographics, economic status, housing characteristics, and social factors.Selected ACS Fields:Median Age (b01002e1)Population (b01003e1)Households (b11001e1)Housing Units (b25001e1)Average Household Size (b25010e1)Households at 200% Federal Poverty Level (c17002e8)Median Household Income (b19013e1)Per Capita Income (b19301e1)Bachelor's Degree or Higher (b99152e2)High School Degree or Higher (b15003e17)Limited English Households (c16002e1)Households (dp04_001e)Vacant Units (dp04_0003e)Renter-Occupied Units (dp04_0047e)
