Census Bureau Releases 2008 Income and Poverty Estimates for All School Districts and Counties
"The U.S. Census Bureau today released 2008 income and poverty estimates
for every school district and county in the nation. These data,
part of the Small Area Income and Poverty Estimates (SAIPE) program,
currently represent the only source of Census Bureau income and
poverty data for each of the nation's 3,142 counties and almost 14,000
Title I-eligible school districts.

SAIPE is the only source of single-year income and poverty data for
approximately 1,300 counties and 76 percent of school districts.
Data for areas with population size of less than 20,000 are not expected to
be available from the American Community Survey (ACS)
until late 2010...."
