Abstract:
These data provide observed county-level population and personal income data from 2010 and document the projections of those variables over the 2015-2070 period, in five-year increments, for five Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) that are the basis for 2020 Renewable Resources Planning Act (RPA) Assessment socioeconomic scenarios. The SSPs are more fully described in the “RPA socioeconomic scenarios summary” document provided in this publication’s Supplemental Information. These data cover the conterminous United States of America.
