ACS Marital Status Boundaries

Overview This feature service provides boundary-based census geography enriched with American Community Survey marital status estimates for people age 15 and over. It includes state, county, and tract layers for examining how marital status is distributed across the United States. Feature Layers State — State boundary polygons with geographic identifiers, land and water area, and marital status indicators for the total population age 15 and over. The layer supports statewide summaries of never married, married, widowed, and divorced populations, along with percentage fields and margins of error. County — County boundary polygons with the same marital status measures, organized for county-level analysis within each state. Tract — Census tract boundary polygons with county and state context, providing detailed local-scale marital status estimates and percentage calculations. Geographic Coverage The service covers the United States and uses standard Census geography at the state, county, and tract levels. It is suited for multiscale demographic mapping and comparison across administrative boundaries. Use Cases Mapping marital status patterns across states, counties, and census tracts Supporting demographic analysis and community profiling Comparing age 15 and over marital composition by geography Creating thematic maps that combine boundaries with American Community Survey estimates Data Notes The layers include estimate and margin of error values derived from American Community Survey style tabulation and several calculated percentage fields. Boundary geometry and area fields support cartographic display and spatial analysis.
