Introducing the New RURAL DATA PORTALDate: September 18, 2013 Join HAC for an overview and explanation of the newly redesigned and improved RURAL DATA PORTAL. The RURAL DATA PORTAL is a simple, easy to use, on-line resource that provides essential information on the social, economic, and housing characteristics of communities in the United States. The RURAL DATA PORTAL provides over 350 data indictors for your community. Most of the information provided in the RURAL DATA PORTAL comes from HAC tabulations of the 2010 Census of Population and Housing, the American Community Survey (ACS) and Home Mortgage Disclosure Act Data. Learn how you can use this resource to improve your understanding of housing and demographic conditions in rural communities. We invite you to visit www.ruraldataportal.org and start “Taking Stock” of you community. |
