Regional Information

WUPPDR maintains an extensive database of census materials and related information. Our agency is a local affiliate of the Michigan Center for Geographic Information (CGI) formerly the Michigan Information Center (MIC) and has acquired a large volume of social and economic data from federal and state resources.

The following are examples of information available through our office:

Demographic: Population counts including census figures, labor force statistics, age, race, sex, community profiles, population projections, etc.

Economic: Major employers, labor force, income, major industries, poverty status, etc.

Housing: Number and type of units, building permit data, median value, renter or owner occupied, etc.

WUPPDR responds to inquiries from both public and private organizations. Information which is readily available is generally provided free of charge. Information requests that require a large number of copies or extensive staff time are provided at cost.
