Census 2020 UpdateDue to the COVID-19 pandemic, Census 2020 data collection and processing were delayed. Because of this, Census 2020 data releases have been likewise delayed. The Census Bureau now anticipates releasing state population counts by April 30, 2021, four months later than originally planned. They have also announced that data used for redistricting will not be available until September 30, 2021, six months later than originally planned. |
Population EstimatesThe MAG Regional Council has adopted the July 1, 2020, population estimates for jurisdictions in the MAG region. These population estimates are created in conjunction with the State Demographer, and are updated every year. The estimates and methodology can be found here. |
ACS UpdatesMAG provides a variety of products that use American Community Survey (ACS) data including interactive map viewers, data dashboards, and infographics. The Arizona demographics map viewer, Community Profiles dashboard, and commute shed reports have been updated to include the recently released 2019 ACS 5-year estimates. |
Virtual Maps & Data TrainingMAG has powerful interactive map viewers and exclusive regional datasets that anyone can access from any online device. These easy-to-use resources are a valuable addition to your data toolbox. We also hold free virtual training sessions to help you discover and explore MAG maps and data tools.
