Thank you for your interest in the first ever "Minnesota Data Opener"!

We at the MN State Demographic Center are pleased to partner with Minnesota Public Radio to offe

opportunity to put some of the data we work with every day in the hands (and the code and the artican help us see it through new eyes. For the inaugural data opener, we have decided to focus uponachievement , which is the central theme of our forthcoming report, "A Time For Talent."

This workbook contains some of the data found in that report--showing educational attainment amoage, race/ethnicity, gender, nativity (U.S.-born or foreign-born), etc. Plus a wealth of other data (25about education and how it can change people's lives.

Some themes you may wish to explore:* How does educational attainment differ by characteristics?* Will the younger generation of Minnesotans, which is also the most diverse, be less likely to gradu

school than the generations before them?* How is educational attainment associated with poverty, median income, or health insurance?* How well educated are Minnesota's immigrant (foreign-born) population, compared to our native-

population?* What degrees are college graduates earning? Do they match the needs of our economy?

These are some ideas to get you started, but feel free to go in any direction your data muse leads.

A word of caution about margins of error: The data in this workbook originated from surveys, whichpretty good idea, but can't be completely precise. So for example, you may see that , in 2010, 31.5%25+ had a bachelor's degree or higher. However, this percentage also has a margin of error (+ or - 0.we believe the actual percent is between 31.1% and 31.9%, the range created by adding and subtra31.5%. You do not need to worry much about margins of error, except when making comparisons bepercentage for two groups appears different in the estimate column, but the range created by the moverlapping, we can't be certain that any true difference exists. So be careful not to make strong condata are too close to call.

Also pay attention to the titles in cell A1. That will give you a sense of the "universe" (everyone the dabout), which is not always the total population. It may be only a certain age or racial group, for exaHere are some recent reports and additional data that have shaped our thinking about how educatiocritical to the emerging economy. You may wish to read them for background. Feel free to referenceproducts you create.

Community Survey

Data are based on a sample and are subject to

sampling variability. The degree of uncertainty

for an estimate arising from sampling

variability is represented through the use of a

margin of error. The value shown here is the

90 percent margin of error. The margin of

error can be interpreted roughly as providing a

90 percent probability that the interval

of error and the estimate plus the margin of

error (the lower and upper confidence bounds)

contains the true value. In addition to

sampling variability, the ACS estimates are

subject to nonsampling error (for a discussion

of nonsampling variability, see Accuracy of the

Data). The effect of nonsampling error is not

represented in these tables.

Notes:

While the 2009 American Community Survey

(ACS) data generally reflect the November

2008 Office of Management and Budget (OMB)

definitions of metropolitan and micropolitan

statistical areas; in certain instances the

names, codes, and boundaries of the principal

cities shown in ACS tables may differ from the

OMB definitions due to differences in the

effective dates of the geographic entities.

Estimates of urban and rural population,housing units, and characteristics reflect

boundaries of urban areas defined based on

Census 2000 data. Boundaries for urban areas

have not been updated since Census 2000. As

a result, data for urban and rural areas from

the ACS do not necessarily reflect the results of

ongoing urbanization.

Explanation of Symbols:

Irish-Scotch ancestry are classified under

"Other groups," whereas in 2007 and earlier

they were classified as Scotch-Irish.

Data are based on a sample and are subject to

of uncertainty for an estimate arising from

sampling variability is represented through the

use of a margin of error. The value shown here

is the 90 percent margin of error. The marginof error can be interpreted roughly as

providing a 90 percent probability that the

interval defined by the estimate minus the

margin of error and the estimate plus the

margin of error (the lower and upper

confidence bounds) contains the true value. In

addition to sampling variability, the ACS

estimates are subject to nonsampling error

(for a discussion of nonsampling variability, see

Accuracy of the Data). The effect of

nonsampling error is not represented in these

tables.

Estimates of urban and rural population,

Ancestry listed in this table refers to the total

number of people who responded with a

particular ancestry; for example, the estimate

given for Russian represents the number of

people who listed Russian as either their first

or second ancestry. This table lists only the

largest ancestry groups; see the Detailed

Tables for more categories. Race and Hispanic

origin groups are not included in this table

because official data for those groups come

from the Race and Hispanic origin questions

rather than the ancestry question (see

Demographic Table).

Data for year of entry of the native population

reflect the year of entry into the U.S. by people

who were born in Puerto Rico, U.S. Island

Areas or born outside the U.S. to a U.S. citizen

parent and who subsequently moved to the

U.S.

The Census Bureau introduced a new set of

disability questions in the 2008 ACS

questionnaire. Accordingly, comparisons of

disability data from 2008 or later with data

from prior years are not recommended. For

more information on these questions and their

evaluation in the 2006 ACS Content Test, see

the Evaluation Report Covering Disability.

While the 2010 American Community Survey

(ACS) data generally reflect the December

2009 Office of Management and Budget (OMB)

definitions of metropolitan and micropolitan

statistical areas; in certain instances the

boundaries of the principal cities shown in ACS

tables may differ from the OMB definitions

due to differences in the effective dates of the

geographic entities.

housing units, and characteristics reflect

boundaries of urban areas defined based on

Census 2000 data. Boundaries for urban areas

have not been updated since Census 2000. As

a result, data for urban and rural areas from

the ACS do not necessarily reflect the results of

ongoing urbanization.

Explanation of Symbols:

1. An '**' entry in the margin of error

column indicates that either no sample

observations or too few sample observations

were available to compute a standard error

and thus the margin of error. A statistical test

is not appropriate.

2. An '-' entry in the estimate column

indicates that either no sample observations or

too few sample observations were available to

compute an estimate, or a ratio of medians

cannot be calculated because one or both of

the median estimates falls in the lowest

interval or upper interval of an open-ended

distribution.

3. An '-' following a median estimate means

the median falls in the lowest interval of anopen-ended distribution.

4. An '+' following a median estimate means

the median falls in the upper interval of an

open-ended distribution.

5. An '***' entry in the margin of error

column indicates that the median falls in the

lowest interval or upper interval of an open-

ended distribution. A statistical test is not

appropriate.

6. An '*****' entry in the margin of error

column indicates that the estimate is

controlled. A statistical test for samplingvariability is not appropriate.
