Census Trax
has amassed U.S. Census housing and demographic data, displaying it in
pop-up boxes by Census block or zip code. Search by street or zip code to find population numbers and characteristics, housing types, vacancies and other data. Move your mouse around the map to get information on adjacent blocks and tracts. Census Trax currently covers only California and is free during beta testing.”
