Here’s looking at us

The USDA’s Economic Research Service has a nifty new interactive map showing county-level demographic, economic and agricultural data. From the Rural Blog:

The data is grouped into four categories: people, jobs, agriculture and county typologies. The “people” category encompasses county demographic profiles such as age, race/ethnicity, education, family composition, population change, migration and immigration. The “jobs” category displays “conditions and trends affecting the labor force, such as employment change, unemployment, industry and occupational structure,” Waddington writes. Indicators of farm structure and demographic data about farm size, income, sales and tenure are available in the “agriculture” category.

Lenawee County: Residents with college degrees, 26.3%
Fulton County: Residents with college degrees, 21.17%
Lenawee County: Percent of home ownership, 80.65%
Fulton County: Percent of home ownership with college degrees, 81.28%
Lenawee County: Population growth, 0.9%
Fulton County: Population growth, 0.76%
