About the People of Incorporated Towns Data

There are 14 incorporated towns in Northern Virginia. 

The demographic data on the people of incorporated towns is sourced from the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS).  All of the incorporated towns in Northern Virginia have a population of less than 65,000 persons.  One-year ACS estimates do not exist for incorporated places with a population of less than 65,000. All incorporated towns and places in the United States are included in the five-year ACS estimates.

It is important to note that any data sourced from the ACS is based on a small sample of the population of a place. The ACS estimates for places with smaller populations such as Clifton, Dumfries, Hamilton, Haymarket, Hillsboro, Lovettsville, Middleburg, and Quantico can be unreliable if the margin of error is large. A town's margin of area for an ACS data piece can be found by hovering over the town's data in a graph.
