We use U.S. census estimates to reflect ethnic and growth trends from the Census data collected every 10 years, as well as the estimates they provide on an annual basis.

This enables us to provide valuable insights to our clients on the demographics and geographic areas they can target with OOH.
At Clear Channel, we use Nielsen Scarborough research on a national and local level as a daily marketing tool for consumer behavior, media preferences, ethnicity targeting, and more.
