National and State
Indicator Tables
This tool provides selected socioeconomic indicators
(such as population, education, poverty, etc.) for each
definition of rural, for each State and the U.S., in
one Excel file. Each individual spreadsheet allows the
user to easily compare a particular indicator across the
different definitions of rural. By selecting different
States from the pull down menu, the user can make quick
comparisons of indicators across States.
Through the indicator tables you can:
- Determine how many people are considered rural in
the U.S. under different definitions.
- Compare the average household income of the
rural population under different rural definitions.
- See how changing the population threshold from 2,500
to 10,000 affects the number of people considered rural
in your State.
- Compare the poverty rate for the rural population in
your State for the different definitions.
