E-Stats 2020: Measuring the Electronic Economy

Report Number: E20-ESTATS

Introduction

In an effort to improve communication and utility of our annual e-commerce statistics, beginning with the 2020 E-Stats data, the U.S. Census Bureau has transitioned to a data visualization. The surveys in this graphic provide a broad perspective of e-commerce activity across several sectors. The estimates in this graphic are based on data from the following surveys:

                                                                Annual Survey of Manufactures

                                                                Service Annual Survey

                                                                Annual Retail Trade Survey

                                                                Annual Wholesale Trade Survey

The 2020 E-Stats provides estimates of e-commerce activity in key sectors of the U.S. economy for 2020, revises previously released estimates for 2019 and earlier, and places these estimates in historical context.

 

Data tables for each sector can be found at:
