The Chesterfield Planning Department publishes two reports which provide a more detailed breakdown of demographic data for the county.

The 2000 Census Report, published by the Planning Department in 2003, highlights demographic and economic trends in Chesterfield identified by the U.S. Census. This data is available at the county level or by smaller geographic areas called tracts.
The Demographic and Economic Profile report, published annually, is the latest in a series that outlines recent Chesterfield County demographic and economic trends.
