MORGANTOWN -- West Virginia University's College of Business and Economics Bureau of Business and Economic Research (BBER) has issued its latest set of West Virginia County Data Profiles.
The report contains detailed economic and demographic statistics on the state’s 55 counties and 16 metropolitan areas. Profiles are also available for the state of West Virginia and the nation.
The profiles are available free of charge in PDF format on the web at: http://www.bber.wvu.edu/. They are also available in hardcopy format and on CD-ROM for a fee.
Profiles ordered on CD-ROM also include most tables in spreadsheet format. Profiles may be ordered on the web site http://wvuecommerce.wvu.edu/ or contact the BBER at (304) 293-7831 or bureau@mail.wvu.edu for ordering information.
“These profiles contain much of the economic and demographic information that can help businesses, state and local policymakers and analysts gauge the economic and demographic trends driving their economies,” said Dr. Christiadi, the demographer in the BBER who supervised the preparation of the profiles. “In the near future we will also include demographic profiles from the American Community Survey (ACS) as they become available for all West Virginia counties. The ACS data allow us to update demographic profiles every year rather than every decade.”
Dr. Tom S. Witt, BBER director, said, “We have provided these profiles on an annual basis for 18 years. These publications are used by economic development and workforce organizations for planning and project proposals.”
