2005-2011 California Poverty Population Estimates by County and Ethnicity (EXCEL)
Please note: These tables are designed to provide an estimate of the population of children (ages 0-17) living in poverty for California and its 58 counties by race/ethnicity. Although the process utilizes the best available data for this purpose, there are limitations associated with this methodology. First, the American Community Survey (ACS) data are based on a sample and are subject to both sampling and non-sampling variability. Second, multiyear ACS estimates do not provide data regarding specific years, rather only average values over a specific period of time. Therefore, the estimates do not capture changes in the actual proportions of children in poverty within a specific race/ethnicity group over time. Rather, they represent what would be expected proportionally given changes in the total size of a population of a specific race/ethnic group.
