Are there more current economic and demographic data available?
Although the “current” demographic and economic tables in the Iowa Data Atlas contain data that are 1-2 years old or more, they are likely the most current estimates available. Agencies must collect, tabulate, and verify the data before they are published. This process may require months or years to complete. Each table in the Iowa Data Atlas includes a release date, which should provide users with an idea of the general timeline for new data releases.
