The Pew Hispanic Center has released updated statistical profiles of Hispanic and foreign-born populations in the U.S.

The profiles are based on the center's tabulations from the Census Bureau's 2010 American Community Survey. They feature detailed characteristics of the Hispanic and foreign-born populations at the national level, according to a Pew news release.

Topics covered include age, geographic dispersion, place of birth, citizenship, language proficiency, racial self-identification, and education, along with earnings and other labor market outcomes.

The statistical profiles are available at the Pew Hispanic Center's website, www.pewhispanic.org.

The Pew Hispanic Center, a project of the Pew Research Center, is a nonpartisan, nonadvocacy research organization based in Washington, D.C. and is funded by The Pew Charitable Trusts.

In other news, the Pew Hispanic Center reported that Latinos are getting the worst of the bad economy, a notion that statistics support.
