This final release of 2020 Island Areas Censuses data include the Island Area and county-equivalent levels of geography.
The following highlights are for the CNMI Island Area level of geography.

The 2020 Island Areas Censuses provide a wide range of demographic, social, economic and housing information to meet the U.S. Island Areas’ data needs. Census Bureau surveys, such as the American Community Survey (ACS), are not conducted in the Island Areas. Therefore, the Census Bureau used a long-form census questionnaire in the 2020 Census similar to the ACS questionnaire used in the 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico.
The Census Bureau previously released population and housing counts, a demographic profile, and the demographic and housing characteristics file for the CNMI from the 2020 Island Areas Censuses. More information is available on the 2020 Island Areas Censuses Data Products webpage.
