* A New Look for the ACS Website
The Census Bureau today released the first of several planned changes to
the ACS Website. The redesign, implemented in part as a response to
numerous requests from data users and stakeholders, includes a
streamlined main page where information is logically grouped allowing
users to find what they are seeking more quickly and efficiently.
A 2007 ACS Data Release page will feature the full 2007 ACS data release
schedule and offer clearly-marked sections directing users to data
products and guidance on making comparisons, information on using the
2007 data, and what's new for 2007. Users should find it easier to
navigate the ACS Website and to locate and access the information they
need.
The updated Website may be viewed at: http://www.census.gov/acs.

** A Look Ahead--The First 2007 ACS Data
The Census Bureau will release income, poverty, and earnings data from
the 2007 ACS, in conjunction with the Census Bureau's annual release of
income, poverty, and health insurance data from the Annual Social and
Economic Supplement to the Current Population Survey on August 26,
2008. The second release of 2007 ACS data will occur on September 23.
The first set of three-year estimates for data collected between 2005
and 2007 will be released in December. These include the first ACS
estimates for areas with populations between 20,000 and 64,999.
