U.S. Census Bureau estimates for the Florida state boundary (GEOID 12). These describe the survey period, not current listings. Small-area estimates may have substantial uncertainty. Homeownership is owner-occupied units divided by occupied units; capped estimates retain their + or − annotation. Census source ↗ · How to read these numbers

Work & education: employed residents are civilian employed people age 16+. Unemployment uses the civilian labor force age 16+ as its denominator; participation uses the total labor force divided by the population age 16+. Education percentages use the population age 25+, with high school including GED and higher credentials. These survey estimates do not measure current job vacancies or school quality.

Census values show their 90% margin of error (MOE) when available; percentage errors are percentage points. Missing errors and underlying counts remain unavailable. Counts come from the source estimates, rather than reconstruction from rounded percentages. No statistical ranking or overall score is implied.
