The data is categorized under Global Database’s United States – Table US.World Bank.WDI: Poverty. Percentage share of income or consumption is the share that accrues to subgroups of population indicated by deciles or quintiles.; ; World Bank, Development Research Group. Data are based on primary household survey data obtained from government statistical agencies and World Bank country departments. Data for high-income economies are from the Luxembourg Income Study database. For more information and methodology, please see PovcalNet (http://iresearch.worldbank.org/PovcalNet/index.htm).; ; The World Bank’s internationally comparable poverty monitoring database now draws on income or detailed consumption data from more than one thousand six hundred household surveys across 164 countries in six regions and 25 other high income countries (industrialized economies). While income distribution data are published for all countries with data available, poverty data are published for low- and middle-income countries and countries eligible to receive loans from the World Bank (such as Chile) and recently graduated countries (such as Estonia) only.

This table contains data on income inequality. The primary measure is the Gini index – a measure of the extent to which the distribution of income among families/households within a community deviates from a perfectly equal distribution. The index ranges from 0.0, when all families (households) have equal shares of income (implies perfect equality), to 1.0 when one family (household) has all the income and the rest have none (implies perfect inequality). Index data is provided for California and its counties, regions, and large cities/towns. The data is from the U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey. The table is part of a series of indicators in the Healthy Communities Data and Indicators Project of the Office of Health Equity. Income is linked to acquiring resources for healthy living. Both household income and the distribution of income across a society independently contribute to the overall health status of a community. On average Western industrialized nations with large disparities in income distribution tend to have poorer health status than similarly advanced nations with a more equitable distribution of income. Approximately 119,200 (5%) of the 2.4 million U.S. deaths in 2000 are attributable to income inequality. The pathways by which income inequality act to increase adverse health outcomes are not known with certainty, but policies that provide for a strong safety net of health and social services have been identified as potential buffers. More information about the data table and a data dictionary can be found in the About/Attachments section.

US Adult Census data relating income to social factors such as Age, Education, race etc.

The Us Adult income dataset was extracted by Barry Becker from the 1994 US Census Database. The data set consists of anonymous information such as occupation, age, native country, race, capital gain, capital loss, education, work class and more. Each row is labelled as either having a salary greater than ">50K" or "<=50K".

This Data set is split into two CSV files, named adult-training.txt and adult-test.txt.

The goal here is to train a binary classifier on the training dataset to predict the column income_bracket which has two possible values ">50K" and "<=50K" and evaluate the accuracy of the classifier with the test dataset.

Note that the dataset is made up of categorical and continuous features. It also contains missing values The categorical columns are: workclass, education, marital_status, occupation, relationship, race, gender, native_country

The continuous columns are: age, education_num, capital_gain, capital_loss, hours_per_week

Health Outcomes and Socioeconomic Factors

A Study of US County Data

By Data Exercises [source]

About this dataset

This dataset contains a wealth of health-related information and socio-economic data aggregated from multiple sources such as the American Community Survey, clinicaltrials.gov, and cancer.gov, covering a variety of US counties. Your task is to use this collection of data to build an Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression model that predicts the target death rate in each county. The model should incorporate variables related to population size, health insurance coverage, educational attainment levels, median incomes and poverty rates. Additionally you will need to assess linearity between your model parameters; measure serial independence among errors; test for heteroskedasticity; evaluate normality in the residual distribution; identify any outliers or missing values and determine how categories variables are handled; compare models through implementation with k=10 cross validation within linear regressions as well as assessing multicollinearity among model parameters. Examine your results by utilizing statistical agreements such as R-squared values and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) while also interpreting implications uncovered by your analysis based on health outcomes compared to correlates among demographics surrounding those effected most closely by land structure along geographic boundaries throughout the United States

How to use the dataset

This dataset provides data on health outcomes, demographics, and socio-economic factors for various US counties from 2010-2016. It can be used to uncover trends in health outcomes and socioeconomic factors across different counties in the US over a six year period.

The dataset contains a variety of information including statefips (a two digit code that identifies the state), countyfips (a three digit code that identifies the county), avg household size, avg annual count of cancer cases, average deaths per year, target death rate, median household income, population estimate for 2015, poverty percent study per capita binned income as well as demographic information such as median age of male and female population percent married households adults with no high school diploma adults with high school diploma percentage with some college education bachelor's degree holders among adults over 25 years old employed persons 16 and over unemployed persons 16 and over private coverage available private coverage available alone temporary private coverage available public coverage available public coverage available alone percentages of white black Asian other race married households and birth rate.

Using this dataset you can build a multivariate ordinary least squares regression model to predict “target_deathrate”. You will also need to implement k-fold (k=10) cross validation to best select your model parameters. Model diagnostics should be performed in order to assess linearity serial independence heteroskedasticity normality multicollinearity etc., while outliers missing values or categorical variables will also have an effect your model selection process. Finally it is important to interpret the resulting models within their context based upon all given factors associated with it such as outliers missing values demographic changes etc., before arriving at a meaningful conclusion which may explain trends in health outcomes and socioeconomic factors found within this dataset

Research Ideas

• Analysis of factors influencing target deathrates in different US counties.
• Prediction of the effects of varying poverty levels on health outcomes in different US counties.
• In-depth analysis of how various socio-economic factors (e.g., median income, educational attainment, etc.) contribute to overall public health outcomes in US counties

A cross-national data archive located in Luxembourg that contains two primary databases: the Luxembourg Income Study Database (LIS Database) includes income microdata from a large number of countries at multiple points in time. The newer Luxembourg Wealth Study Database(LWS Database) includes wealth microdata from a smaller selection of countries. Both databases include labor market and demographic data as well. Our mission is to enable, facilitate, promote, and conduct cross-national comparative research on socio-economic outcomes and on the institutional factors that shape those outcomes. Since its beginning in 1983, the LIS has grown into a cooperative research project with a membership that includes countries in Europe, North America, and Australia. The database now contains information for more than 30 countries with datasets that span up to three decades. The LIS databank has a total of over 140 datasets covering the period 1968 to 2005. The primary objectives of the LIS are as follows: * Test the feasibility for creating a database containing social and economic data collected in household surveys from different countries; * Provide a method which allows researchers to use the data under restrictions required by the countries providing the data; * Create a system that allows research requests to be received from and returned to users at remote locations; and * Promote comparative research on the social and economic status of various populations and subgroups in different countries. Data Availability: The dataset is accessed globally via electronic mail networks.

Disposable Personal Income in the United States increased to 23033.50 USD Billion in August from 22947.50 USD Billion in July of 2025. This dataset provides - United States Disposable Personal Income - actual values, historical data, forecast, chart, statistics, economic calendar and news.

This intermediate level data set was extracted from the census bureau database. There are 48842 instances of data set, mix of continuous and discrete (train=32561, test=16281).

The data set has 15 attribute which include age, sex, education level and other relevant details of a person. The data set will help to improve your skills in Exploratory Data Analysis, Data Wrangling, Data Visualization and Classification Models.

Feel free to explore the data set with multiple supervised and unsupervised learning techniques. The Following description gives more details on this data set:

• age: the age of an individual.
• workclass: The type of work or employment of an individual. It can have the following categories:
  • Private: Working in the private sector.
  • Self-emp-not-inc: Self-employed individuals who are not incorporated.
  • Self-emp-inc: Self-employed individuals who are incorporated.
  • Federal-gov: Working for the federal government.
  • Local-gov: Working for the local government.
  • State-gov: Working for the state government.
  • Without-pay: Not working and without pay.
  • Never-worked: Never worked before.
• Final Weight: The weights on the CPS files are controlled to independent estimates of the civilian noninstitutional population of the US. These are prepared monthly for us by Population Division here at the Census Bureau. We use 3 sets of controls.

These are: 1. A single cell estimate of the population 16+ for each state. 2. Controls for Hispanic Origin by age and sex. 3. Controls by Race, age and sex.

We use all three sets of controls in our weighting program and "rake" through them 6 times so that by the end we come back to all the controls we used.

People with similar demographic characteristics should have similar weights. There is one important caveat to remember about this statement. That is that since the CPS sample is actually a collection of 51 state samples, each with its own probability of selection, the statement only applies within state.

• education: The highest level of education completed.
• education-num: The number of years of education completed.
• marital-status: The marital status.
• occupation: Type of work performed by an individual.
• relationship: The relationship status.
• race: The race of an individual.
• sex: The gender of an individual.
• capital-gain: The amount of capital gain (financial profit).
• capital-loss: The amount of capital loss an individual has incurred.
• hours-per-week: The number of hours works per week.
• native-country: The country of origin or the native country.
• income: The income level of an individual and serves as the target variable. It indicates whether the income is greater than $50,000 or less than or equal to $50,000, denoted as (>50K, <=50K).

This layer shows median household income by race and by age of householder. This is shown by tract, county, and state centroids. This service is updated annually to contain the most currently released American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year data, and contains estimates and margins of error. There are also additional calculated attributes related to this topic, which can be mapped or used within analysis. Median income and income source is based on income in past 12 months of survey. This layer is symbolized to show median household income. To see the full list of attributes available in this service, go to the "Data" tab, and choose "Fields" at the top right.

Please cite the Census and ACS when using this data.Data Note from the Census: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 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 Accuracy of the Data). The effect of nonsampling error is not represented in these tables.Data Processing Notes:This layer is updated automatically when the most current vintage of ACS data is released each year, usually in December. The layer always contains the latest available ACS 5-year estimates. It is updated annually within days of the Census Bureau's release schedule.

Boundaries are updated at the same time as the data updates (annually), and the boundary vintage appropriately matches the data vintage as specified by the Census. These are Census boundaries with water and/or coastlines erased for cartographic and mapping purposes. For census tracts, the water cutouts are derived from a subset of the 2020 Areal Hydrography boundaries offered by TIGER. Water bodies and rivers which are 50 million square meters or larger (mid to large sized water bodies) are erased from the tract level boundaries, as well as additional important features. For state and county boundaries, the water and coastlines are derived from the coastlines of the 2023 500k TIGER Cartographic Boundary Shapefiles. These are erased to more accurately portray the coastlines and Great Lakes. The original AWATER and ALAND fields are still available as attributes within the data table (units are square meters).The States layer contains 52 records - all US states, Washington D.C., and Puerto RicoCensus tracts with no population that occur in areas of water, such as oceans, are removed from this data service (Census Tracts beginning with 99).Percentages and derived counts, and associated margins of error, are calculated values (that can be identified by the "_calc_" stub in the field name), and abide by the specifications defined by the American Community Survey.Field alias names were created based on the Table Shells file available from the American Community Survey Summary File Documentation page.Negative values (e.g., -4444...) have been set to null, with the exception of -5555... which has been set to zero. These negative values exist in the raw API data to indicate the following situations:The margin of error column indicates that either no sample observations or too few sample observations were available to compute a standard error and thus the margin of error. A statistical test is not appropriate.Either no sample observations or too few sample observations were available to compute an estimate, or a ratio of medians cannot be calculated because one or both of the median estimates falls in the lowest interval or upper interval of an open-ended distribution.The median falls in the lowest interval of an open-ended distribution, or in the upper interval of an open-ended distribution. A statistical test is not appropriate.The estimate is controlled. A statistical test for sampling variability is not appropriate.The data for this geographic area cannot be displayed because the number of sample cases is too small.
