1. Abstract
The purpose of this project is to analyze the changes in United States education, income and demographics over ten years (from 2000 to 2010). For this US census data is used which should be available at the website of US Census Bureau (www.census.gov). The goals of this project are comparing the 2000 and 2010 US census data and find out how attributes like education, income and demographics have changed over ten years by making an OLAP solution for this. To achieve that, two datasets are needed – 2000 and 2010 US census full datasets. Another goal is to make snapshots of 2010 US census data so that they could fit into Excel and they could be used in Data Mining course exercises.
