NPA Data Services, Inc., Regional Economic Projections Series
(REPSTM) provides consistent time series
of historical and projected data for the years 1967-2030 for the country's
regions, states, economic, and metropolitan areas and for each of the 3098
U.S. counties. These annually updated series include: population
by age, sex and race; households; employment and earnings by sector; and
personal income of residents by source. The estimates provided in
the three annual volumes designed for reference use are presented in the
format and detail that is essential for professional analytical purposes.
The usual arrangement of the data content of the three volumes is as follows:
Regional projections are generated by using linked regional economic and demographic growth models. The economic model for our national economic projections, utilizes the latest detailed data specific to each area to project employment, earnings, personal income, and total population series for the area. The demographic projection model estimates the details of total population by age, sex and race using cohort components analysis, estimates of local fertility and mortality trends, and a set of relationships which characterize the domestic migration patterns of the given area. The REPS data have been used extensively by subscribers in a variety of applications: (1) in marketing; (2) in planning acquisitions or facilities; (3) in research; (4) in regulatory hearings and court cases.
