Consumers should not be in the dark making personal finance decisions.  NerdWallet puts knowledge in your wallet by helping people lead better lives through financial education and empowerment.  They rely on the American Community Survey (ACS) to "verify statistics and information on facts that people want to know...to give you that hyperlocal insight to the reader."

Check out the U.S. Census Bureau's newest Stats in Action video to learn how NerdWallet builds accessible online tools using ACS statistics for communities large and small.  These tools help consumers take back control of their personal finances when it comes to credit cards, insurance, loans, or expenses.

You can also let us know how you use ACS data by sharing your story online using #ACSdata.
