The Census Bureau provides the majority of data present, and a page of text accompanies most data tables, analyzing figures and highlighting trends. Also included is an analysis of discretionary income figures, produced by New Strategists' data from the Current Population Survey and the Bureau of Labor Statistics' Consumer Expenditure Survey.
