About Us

Our specialties include:

  • Analyzing and interpreting large and complex data sets, including Census Bureau and American Community Survey data;
  • Conducting practical, policy-oriented research and presentations on topics of current interest;
  • Providing high-quality custom-designed contract research for employers, government agencies, organizations, and individuals;
  • Developing reliable state and local data and estimates, including Virginia's official annual population estimates for counties and cities, and school enrollment and average daily membership projections; and,
  • Offering meaningful information for policy makers, government and civic leaders, journalists, and all citizens of the Commonwealth through our free publications.

In 2010, the United States Census Bureau will conduct the next decennial census, FOR THE FIRST TIME, a short-form-only census process. This means that Census data users will need to be alert to these changes and to the availability (and the strengths and limitations of) other Census data sources, including the American Community Survey. Count on us for current information and expertise about Census data at all levels.
