Title: Disconnected Youth (5-year estimate) for Plymouth County, MA Series ID: B14005DCYACS025023 Source: U.S. Census Bureau Release: Disconnected Youth (Not a Press Release) Seasonal Adjustment: Not Seasonally Adjusted Frequency: Annual Units: Percent Date Range: 2009-01-01 to 2022-01-01 Last Updated: 2023-12-07 10:21 AM CST Notes: Disconnected Youth represents the percentage of youth in a county who are between the ages of 16 and 19, who are not enrolled in school and who are unemployed or not in the labor force. (ACS 5 year variables from table DP02) Multiyear estimates from the American Community Survey (ACS) are "period" estimates derived from a data sample collected over a period of time as opposed to "point-in-time" estimates such as those from past decennial censuses. ACS 5-year estimate includes data collected over a 60-month period. The date of the data is the end of the 5-year period. For example, a value dated 2014 represents data from 2010 to 2014. However, they do not describe any specific day, month, or year within that time period. Multiyear estimates require some considerations that single-year estimates do not. For example, multiyear estimates released in consecutive years consist mostly of overlapping years and shared data. The 2010-2014 ACS 5-year estimates share sample data from 2011 through 2014 with the 2011-2015 ACS 5-year estimates. Because of this overlap, users should use extreme caution in making comparisons with consecutive years of multiyear estimates. Please see "Section 3: Understanding and Using ACS Single-Year and Multiyear Estimates" on publication page 13 (file page 19) of the 2018 ACS General Handbook for a more thorough clarification. https://www.census.gov/content/dam/Census/library/publications/2018/acs/acs_general_handbook_2018.pdf The data is determined from the following calculation: (B14005_010E + B14005_011E + B14005_014E + B14005_015E + B14005_024E + B14005_025E + B14005_028E + B14005_029E) / B14005_001E DATE VALUE 2009-01-01 4.5204531380905550 2010-01-01 5.1083196795922080 2011-01-01 6.1385922064666640 2012-01-01 6.5084032088279065 2013-01-01 7.6159059127254470 2014-01-01 6.9116080937167200 2015-01-01 6.7984947458108484 2016-01-01 5.5165677904789465 2017-01-01 4.6307023895727735 2018-01-01 3.9531049642791722 2019-01-01 3.2206178029610677 2020-01-01 4.1669702047060540 2021-01-01 4.4749445993280440 2022-01-01 5.2680820439006840
