Census Bureau News Products for June 30, 2022 Census Bureau Releases 2019 Nonemployer Statistics The U.S. Census Bureau today released the 2019 Nonemployer Statistics (NES). This annual series provides subnational economic data for businesses that have no paid employees or payroll, are subject to federal income tax and have receipts of $1,000 or more.   The data consist of the number of businesses and total receipts by industry for over 450 industries at detailed geographic levels, including national, state, county and metropolitan and combined statistical areas. The statistics are also published by Legal Form of Organization (LFO) and by receipts size class. Learn More Six States Added to Post-Secondary Employment Outcomes The U.S. Census Bureau today announced the release of six new states (nine data partners) — Oregon, Hawaii, Massachusetts, South Dakota, Montana and Georgia — in the Post-Secondary Employment Outcomes (PSEO) experimental data product. PSEO now includes data on 660 institutions, which cover more than 25% of all college graduates in the United States in 2015. Data users can access the data via the PSEO Explorer tool, raw files, and Census API. PSEO tabulations show earnings and employment outcomes for graduates of U.S. post-secondary institutions and are generated by linking graduate transcript records to Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics wage data. This offers prospective students a comprehensive assessment tool to find out how much they could potentially earn by degree and institution.
