About datasets used in this table

Value Notes

 Estimates are not comparable to other geographic levels due to


methodology differences that may exist between different data sources.

Some estimates presented here come from sample data, and thus have
sampling errors that may render some apparent differences between
geographies statistically indistinguishable. ] Click the Quick Info 
icon to the left of each row in TABLE view to learn about sampling
error.

In Vintage 2022, as a result of the formal request from the state,

Connecticut transitioned from eight counties to nine planning regions.
For more details, please see the Vintage 2022 release notes available
here: Release Notes.

The vintage year (e.g., V2022) refers to the final year of the series
(2020 thru 2022). Different vintage years of estimates are not
comparable.

Users should exercise caution when comparing 2017-2021 ACS 5-year

estimates to other ACS estimates. For more information, please visit
the 2021 5-year ACS Comparison Guidance page.

Fact Notes

information
F Fewer than 25 firms
FN Footnote on this item in place of data
NA Not available
S Suppressed; does not meet publication standards
X Not applicable
Z Value greater than zero but less than half unit of
measure shown
- Either no 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 or upper interval of an open
ended distribution.
N Data for this geographic area cannot be displayed
because the number of sample cases is too small.
