Economics & Demographics Program

Directory of Network Affiliates

The Maine State Data Center has two components: the State Data Center, which focuses primarily on population, demographic, and geographic data; and the Business and Industry Data Center, which focuses on business, trade, and economic data. These two components are integrated into the Maine State Data Center. While network affiliates are designated as either State Data Center (SDC) or Business and Industry Data Center (BIDC) affiliates, most organizations have data and expertise relating to both components. The following is a listing of each affiliate within the network along with contact information and a web address. It is our hope that most people will be able to find an affiliate that is convenient for them to contact. If you have difficulty locating a suitable affiliate, please email Thomas Merrill of the Maine State Data Center.
