• Voting-age population and estimate of eligible voters (i.e., citizens age 18 and older).
• Breakdown of voting-age population by race and Hispanic origin (Hispanic origin and race alone) (race alone or in combination).
• Selected economic characteristics, including median household income and poverty.
• Selected social characteristics, including educational attainment.
• County Business Patterns (providing information on employment by specific industries).
