New Pew resource

The Pew Hispanic Center has posted a new resource on its Web site

The Pew Hispanic Center has posted a new resource on its Web site, A Statistical Portrait of Hispanics at Mid-Decade. The information is based on the center's tabulations of the 2005 American Community Survey, which was fully implemented by the U.S. Census Bureau for the first time this year.

The 2005 ACS, released August 29, 2006, has a sample of about 3 million addresses. Presented as a series of tables, the tabulations by the Pew Hispanic Center provide the most up-to-date statistical portrait of the Latino population in the United Sates. It can be accessed at the center's Web site, www.pewhispanic.org.
