The County and City Data Book is a comprehensive source of data on population, income, housing, and education levels for counties and cities in the United States, including Dane County, Wisconsin. The Census of Population and Housing also provides this information, but the County and City Data Book presents the data in a more organized and accessible format. A Guide to Consumer Markets and County Business Patterns are unlikely to have the specific data needed for this study. The Census of Housing provides data on the housing stock and characteristics, but not on population or education levels.
