KIDS COUNT Online Data

The KIDS COUNT project provides access to several databases online. The online databases, including KIDS COUNT State-Level Data, KIDS COUNT Census Data, and CLIKS (Community-Level Information on Kids), provide online access to over 100 measures of child well-being. 

KIDS COUNT State-Level Data Online
The State-Level Data Online database provides data on many important measures of child well-being. This easy to use, powerful online tool allows you to generate custom reports, including:

  • Profiles by State  Provides users detailed information about a single state, the United States or the District of Columbia.
  • Comparisons by Topic  Allows users to compare specific data across multiple states.  Results can be viewed as a ranking, map, or line graph.
  • Raw Data  Provides users the ability to download data as delimited files. 

KIDS COUNT Census Data Online
The Census Data Online database provides 2000 Census data for the nation, individual states, congressional districts, counties, metropolitan areas, and state legislative districts. Users can access profiles, tables that rank geographic areas, and the raw data.

CLIKS - Community Level Information on Kids
CLIKS brings together data on the well-being of children collected by KIDS COUNT grantees from state and local sources.  The unique system allows users to access state-specific inventories of data from local sources, such as health departments, human services agencies, and schools.  Users can use the following tools to generate custom reports:

  • Profiles  Provides detailed information about a single state or region.
  • Graphs  Allows users to view indicators graphed over time.
  • Maps  Provides color-coded maps of the states based on CLIKS data.
  • Rankings  Allows users to view all of the regions within a state, ranked according to an indicator.
  • Raw Data  Gives users the opportunity to download CLIKS data as delimited files.
