Statistical Data and Information: PEW Research Center

The Pew Research Center is a nonpartisan "fact tank" that provides information on the issues, attitudes and trends shaping America and the world. It does so by conducting public opinion polling and social science research; by analyzing news coverage; and by holding forums and briefings. It does not take positions on policy issues.

The Center's work is carried out by seven projects:

• Pew Research Center for the People & the Press
• Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism
• Pew Internet & American Life Project
• Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life
• Pew Hispanic Center
• Pew Global Attitudes Project
• Pew Social & Demographic Trends Project
