Book Description
Hispanic or Latino community demographic profiles are available for over 200 geographic areas in Minnesota. They were created using the Summary File 1, Census of Population and Housing data that the U.S. Census Bureau released in 2001. The summary file is a collection of data sets that includes detailed information on a limited number of population and housing characteristics. A demographic profile was created for the state of Minnesota, 69 Minnesota counties, 129 Minnesota cities and the 7 metropolitan areas that are located in part, or as a whole, in Minnesota. Each demographic profile includes information such as the number of Latinos in the community, age distribution, ethnic origin and household and family data. Only geographic areas and census data sets with a population of 100 or more Latinos were chosen for the community profiles in an effort to protect individual's privacy.
