The Insights Data Download feature allows users to perform their own research on some of the datasets that drive the charts and graphs in this site.

Please note: This data has potentially identifiable data removed, or converted to a range of values. As population sizes decrease, the liklihood that suppression is needed increases. Ranges are shown with low and high columns for their respective measure. In cases where data is suppressed, an asterisk (*) or an empty cell is shown. For additional descriptions of a particular measure, please see the explanations attached to the graphs of that measure on other pages in Insights.
