One Click: Socioeconomic Reports for Every County

The Economic Profile System (EPS)

Free and easy-to-use, EPS provides 14 different reports so users quickly can create custom profiles for communities, counties, and states (including aggregations and comparisons) across the country in Excel, PDF, or Word.

The reports cover a wide variety of topics such as local economics, demographics, and land use while providing historic context and trends for the last forty years.

EPS synthesizes data from a wide variety of federal sources, is updated continuously, and is used by researchers, university instructors, economic developers, grant writers, elected officials, cities, planners, federal agencies, reporters, and others.
