Raleigh Demographics 

The Greek roots of the word demographics translate to “measurement of people.” This simple idea is a crucial part of effective governance at all scales and especially for the City of Raleigh. It has come to include a range of topics like age, race, employment, household size, and marital status. Elected officials and City staff must understand national and regional trends as well as characteristics unique to Raleigh in order to maintain the quality of life that community members enjoy.
