Statistics

In writing it’s important to use statistics to support your arguments/conclusions about a subject. A helpful place to go for statistics about different states is the United States Census Bureau website. The American Fact Finder, Community Facts(Links to an external site.) will have a lot of current information listed by state.

Make certain to list where you have gotten your information. You need to cite your sources using APA, MLA, or Chicago Style. You can look at the example below for a Chicago Style citation of a webpage from the Census Bureau.

Sample citation:

U.S. Bureau of the Census. Poverty Areas. ONLINE. 1995. Census Bureau. Available: http://www.census.gov/ftp/pub/socdemo/www/povarea.htm [10 Dec. 1995].
