CMS’s analysis of ACS data based on its statelessness profiles reveals 198,000 individuals
that match the above profiles of persons who are potentially stateless or potentially at
risk of stateless.
Table 1 gives ACS-based estimates for each profile identified in section II above. As discussed,
data limitations made it impossible to develop estimates for some profiles. Profiles with counts of
zero in Table 1 reflect groups with no respondents in the 5-Year ACS. CMS left the count column
blank when it was not possible to calculate counts based on ACS data limitations.
