Q. Where do I find demographic data for the social work community assessment paper?

The Social Work Research Guide includes a page of recommended resources for finding data, demographics and statistics. 

You can search for data from the US Census Bureau directly on their website: https://data.census.gov/cedsci/

The Data and Statistics page of the social work research guide has instructions on how to search for data from the US Census Bureau.

If you need information for a neighborhood or small area, Social Explorer is also an excellent tool that allows you to display demographic data in the U.S. from 1790 through the present at a variety of geographic levels, create reports, and maps that can be downloaded.
