Materials available here include information on U.S. and international population trends and their implications. There are articles, data sheets, reports, and world statistics on topics such as education, employment, fertility, poverty, race, youth, and many others. The site is also searchable by specific region, state, or variables such as age group. For educators, there are detailed lesson plans that use data from the site, as well as resource guides and standards. Links for additional information are provided as well.
