2023 American Community Survey 1-Year Data Released

September 12, 2024. The U.S. Census Bureau released the 2023 American Community Survey (ACS) 1-year estimates today. Included in this release are data for the State, the counties, Hawaii's 10 Public Use Microdata Sample Areas (PUMAs), and Hawaii's two congressional districts. Additionally, there are data for select CDPs, Urbanized Areas, and Micro/Metro Areas, including: Urban Honolulu CDP; Kailua-Kaneohe and Urban Honolulu Urbanized Areas; Hilo and Kapaa Micro Areas; and Kahului-Wailuku-Lahaina Metro Area. Kalawao County does not meet the population threshold for 1-year estimates; however, it is included in the State total.

The 2023 ACS one-year estimates are available on data.census.gov, which is the Census Bureau's platform to access data and digital content.

Several new tables were added for housing. Nine new tables for housing costs as a percentage of household income based on race were added. The iterated tables are separated by householders' major race alone, which includes American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian, Black, Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander, White, and Some Other Race categories. Tables also include householders who are Hispanic or Latino, Two or more races, and White alone (not Hispanic or Latino). Data for these tables were sorted based on householders' ownership with or without a mortgage and based on whether the householder rented. Estimates were provided for householders who's housing costs were over 30 percent and over 50 percent of their household income.

Another new housing related table includes data on homeowners' insurance costs by mortgage status. Estimates of homeowners insurance costs were provided on a range of less than $100 to $4000 or more for homeowners with or without a mortgage.

More Hawaii data, including selected population profiles and data profiles are available on our American Community Survey Page.
