American Community Survey 2015–2019
First released by Esri in March 2021, the American Community Survey (ACS) data is re-released in new 2021 geographies. The ACS is the de facto replacement for sample data from the decennial census. Releases for all areas down to block groups represent averages over 60 months, or five years (2015–2019, inclusive).
2021 Tapestry Segmentation
Tapestry Segmentation is a market segmentation system designed to identify consumer markets in the United States. Reflecting the increasing diversity among American consumers, Tapestry includes 67 distinct market segments and 14 summary groups. Tapestry Segmentation data is updated for 2021 and includes new Tapestry names for eight segments and one LifeMode group.
2021/2026 Consumer Spending
Esri combined the latest Consumer Expenditure Surveys (CEX), 2018–2019, from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) to estimate current spending patterns. The Consumer Spending data is updated for 2021 and 2026. New data variables include spending on bike sharing/e-scooters.
2021 Market Potential
Esri's 2021 Market Potential data measures the likely demand for a product or service in an area. With this release, Esri computes Market Potential by combining 2021 Tapestry Segmentation data with Doublebase 2020 data from MRI-Simmons. Doublebase 2020 is an integration of information from four consumer surveys. Each survey respondent can be identified by Tapestry segment, so a rate of consumption by Tapestry segment can be determined for a product or service for any area. With this change in surveys, there are new variables including voting, organic foods, 'SmartHome' tech, and more.
Traffic Counts
The Traffic Counts data from Kalibrate tracks peak and low traffic volume by the number of vehicles that cross a certain street location. The Traffic Counts data comes from the Q2 2021 release from Kalibrate.
Crime Indexes
Crime Indexes provide a view of the relative risk of specific crime types. It is not a database of actual crimes, but rather the relative risk in an area compared to the United States in its entirety. The database includes indexes for several categories of personal and property crime. The Crime data comes from the 2021A release from Applied Geographic Solutions (AGS).
France
In France, the Advanced Demographics data from Esri France is updated to the 2017 Census and includes the data in both English and French languages.
Australia
In Australia, the Advanced Demographics dataset from Esri Australia is updated to the 2016 Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) Census data. The 2011 ABS data from MapData Services is no longer available.
