GetFacts
GetFacts is a tool for generating demographic profiles of Wisconsin Counties, County Subdivisions, or the state. Profiles can be generated with a focus on population trends, health, housing, race and ethnicity, economics, civil rights, or with an overview or customized perspective. This project is one of a suite of tools and resources from the Applied Population Lab (APL) designed to help educators and others learn about state and local demographics and context.
