Although the American Community Survey (ACS) produces population, demographic and housing unit estimates, the decennial census is the official source of population totals for April 1st of each decennial year. In between censuses, the Census Bureau's Population Estimates Program produces and disseminates the official estimates of the population for the nation, states, counties, cities, and towns and estimates of housing units for states and counties..Information about the American Community Survey (ACS) can be found on the ACS website. Supporting documentation including code lists, subject definitions, data accuracy, and statistical testing, and a full list of ACS tables and table shells (without estimates) can be found on the Technical Documentation section of the ACS website.Sample size and data quality measures (including coverage rates, allocation rates, and response rates) can be found on the American Community Survey website in the Methodology section..Source: U.S. Census Bureau, 2018-2022 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates.Data are based on a sample and are subject to sampling variability. The degree of uncertainty for an estimate arising from sampling variability is represented through the use of a margin of error. The value shown here is the 90 percent margin of error. The margin of error can be interpreted roughly as providing a 90 percent probability that the interval defined by the estimate minus the margin of error and the estimate plus the margin of error (the lower and upper confidence bounds) contains the true value. In addition to sampling variability, the ACS estimates are subject to nonsampling error (for a discussion of nonsampling variability, see ACS Technical Documentation). The effect of nonsampling error is not represented in these tables..Methodological changes to citizenship edits may have affected citizenship data for those born in American Samoa.

The South American alcoholic beverage market, valued at approximately $XX million in 2025, is projected to experience steady growth, driven by rising disposable incomes, a growing young adult population, and increasing urbanization across Brazil, Argentina, and the rest of South America. The market's Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 3.23% from 2025 to 2033 indicates a consistent expansion, albeit moderate, reflecting the region's economic realities and fluctuating consumer spending. Beer remains the dominant segment, fueled by strong local brands and affordable pricing, while the spirits and wine categories are witnessing growth driven by evolving consumer preferences towards premium and imported products. The on-trade channel, encompassing bars and restaurants, plays a significant role, particularly in Brazil and Argentina's vibrant nightlife cultures. However, growth in the off-trade (retail) channel is also robust, reflecting increasing convenience and home consumption trends. Competitive pressures from both multinational giants like Anheuser-Busch InBev, Diageo, and Heineken, and strong regional players like Grupo Penaflor and Cervejaria Petropolis, shape market dynamics. Regulatory changes concerning alcohol consumption and marketing, alongside fluctuating economic conditions in some South American countries, pose potential restraints to market expansion. Growth in the South American alcoholic beverage market is unevenly distributed across the region. Brazil, with its massive population and established infrastructure, commands the largest market share, followed by Argentina. The "Rest of South America" segment, encompassing diverse economies and consumption patterns, exhibits slower growth compared to Brazil and Argentina. Successful players are adapting their strategies to cater to local preferences, leveraging strong distribution networks, and innovating with new product offerings and marketing campaigns. Premiumization is a noticeable trend, with consumers showing increasing willingness to spend more on high-quality alcoholic beverages. Sustainability concerns are also gradually influencing consumer choices, driving demand for eco-friendly packaging and production practices among some segments of the market. Further growth will depend on factors such as macroeconomic stability, shifting consumer preferences, and the regulatory environment across different South American countries.
