Abstract:
The 2012 Economic Census of Island Areas, conducted under the authority of Title 13, United States Code (USC), is the primary source of dependable facts about the structure and functioning of the economies of the Island Areas. The census provides the only source of data at a geographic level equivalent to U.S. counties. Economic census statistics provide benchmarks for indexes of industrial production, business activities and sales. Census data provide a framework for estimating the gross product of these areas and provide essential information for government, business, and the general public.
