This report by the U.S. Census Bureau looks at information on income, earnings, and poverty collected in the 2004 American Community Survey (ACS). The income, earnings, and poverty information from the ACS provide a measure of the country¿s economic well-being. This report uses the unique ability of the ACS to produce: estimates for the U.S., states, and lower levels of geography such as counties and local areas; detailed tabulations or cross-classifications; and yearly data for local areas to track changes over time. This report has three main sections: household income; the earnings of men and women; and poverty. Charts and tables.
