Transition From American FactFinder
American FactFinder (AFF) was decommissioned and taken offline on March 31, 2020. Data previously released on AFF are now being released on the U.S. Census Bureau's new dissemination platform, data.census.gov. Since we are a developing site, not all the data from AFF have been migrated over to data.census.gov. Below is an overview of our data migration status that will be updated regularly.
