Economics Data Sources
This will always be out-of-date: websites change, new ones are added and I
don't know all of them in the first place.
There are many data sources on the internet and many organizations with lists
of data sources on the internet.
Links to lists of data sets
Original Sources for macro data (generally aggregate time series data
such as GDP)
Original Sources for micro data (generally large survey data sets on
individuals)
Be aware that many of the data sources available on the web are updated
infrequently or do not have the actual data readily available for download and
are therefore not particularly useful for data analysis.
Links to Lists of Data Sources
The following links give many, many data sources and can involve much trial
and error to find the data you want.
Government Data Sources
Statistical Abstract of the United States. This is often the
first place to go, for either macro or micro data, with over a thousand
tables of key U.S. and some international data. It also gives definitions
and original data sources that you can go to for more detail. Hardcopies are
available in reference section of the library. Electronic copy can be
obtained from
Bureau
of Census: Statistical Abstract (can be accessed by U.C. students) and
immediately click on Statistical Abstract.The Economic Report to the President. This has extensive U.S.
macro time series data. Hardcopies are available in reference section of the
library. NBER on-line data Bureau of Economic Analysis .
Publishes Survey of Current Business and other data.Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Collects the key data on employment, unemployment and earnings.Bureau of Census. Many surveys
including the decenniel census.National Center for Health
Statistics. Many health data sets including NHIS and Health United
States .
Macrodata The following is is a good source to obtain data in an easy form to download
into Excel.
International Data Microdata Micro data includes industry-level or firm-level data and individual-level
data.
Here I give the leading survey data sets on individuals:
Some interview different people in different years (repeated
cross-section).
Others interview the same people each year (panel data).
These data sets and many more are generally available free by download of the
entire dataset from
Many of these data sets plus complete documentation can be purchased as CD's
costing $10-$30.
And in some cases selected variables can be downloaded directly from the
original web-site given below.
One can use these data sets as class exercises. e.g. get data on income and
education and analyze. One easy one to extract data from is the PSID.
Journal Data Archives Several journals require that data used in a study published in a journal be
placed on archive so other researchers can attempt to replicate their results.
This will always be out-of-date: websites change, new ones are added and I
don't know all of them in the first place.

Internet Resources for Economists
Bill Goffe's incredible web
site which contains just about every economics related link
known to exist. If you're looking for an economics web site not
listed here, this is the first (and probably the last) place to
start.
The Dismal Scientist
Although the name is not
stimulating, this is a very dynamic web site. This page is
updated daily and reports current economic conditions in the
U.S. and the world. There is too much on their site to list
here; check it out for yourself.
Economics at About.Com
This a nice general interest
economics site.
The Economist
The magazine's on-line site
which contains a sizable archive of previous issues.
Links to all the Federal Reserve Banks
This site provides the Board
of Governor's map which links to all the Federal Reserve Bank
web sites. Visiting the publications section of each of the
Federal Reserve Banks will provide you with a list of all of the
free publications that are available from each bank. Many of the
banks also provide data on the economy which may be downloaded.
List of Worldwide Central Banks
This link provides the URL
for every central bank in the world. The classifications are
stratified by continent as well as by country. These links are
useful for discovering the economic structure of non-U.S.
nations.

provides many years of data on the banking industry in the U.S.
at both the national and state level. There is also an on-line
periodical which discusses current trends in the banking sector,
as well as regulatory information.
Bureau of Labor Statistics
This web site
provides primarily wage and employment data for the U.S. at both
the national and state level. Their query selection makes the

St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank FRED Database
This site is

is available for interest rates, various price indices, and
gross domestic product, as well as many other series. A complete
listing is far too long, so check this one out.
NBER Data
The National
Bureau of Economic Research's macro data archive. Most of their
macro data can be obtained through FRED, but they do offer very
old time-series of several variables that I have yet to see
elsewhere.
Bureau of the Census
This site
provides data obtained from the decennial census at both the
national and regional level. Many data series offered by the
Bureau of the Census is more current than the decennial Census,
but the Census is their bread and butter.
Commerce Department Data
Various data
series are available here.
Bureau of Economic Analysis
This site
contains national, international, and regional income accounting
data. There is not a whole lot of data available here, but many
of their series can be obtained at the county and MSA level.

site contains information on federal tax liabilities and the
federal budget, as well as providing budget outlooks for future
fiscal years.

as well as providing projections for the future.
Panel Study of Income Dynamics
University of
Michigan's data set examining individual income and
characteristics over time.

Abstract contains a plethora of historical data. The older
hard-copy versions are also avaiable in electronic format.

contains a plethora of data on secondary and post-secondary
education characteristics. Several surveys undertaken by NCES
are also available here.
