United States. This file contains reports generated from a marketing
organization’s Web site. The Web site provides free demographical services
where one can choose from a variety of criteria and generate reports based
on the U.S. Census data. This particular file contains 4 reports: General
Summary, Census Trend 1980 to 2000 Summary, Occupation and Employment
Summary, and Income Summary based on the entire United States.

code 60614. This particular file contains 4 reports: General Summary,
Census Trend 1980 to 2000 Summary, Occupation and Employment Summary, and
Income Summary based on the U.S. zip code 60614.
Using all 4 demographic
reports (General Summary, Census Trend 1980 to 2000 Summary, Occupation
and Employment Summary, and Income Summary) for the United States and zip
code 60614, prepare a 1-page memo explaining how your territory differs
from the national profile. Feel free to note anything that you found
surprising in this data.
Use the business
intelligence software to depict information from these reports.
Prepare a presentation of
5–6 slides of your major findings. You may group a category of data from
the Total United States and zip code 60614, and create a graph to show how
they differ. The presentation should have at least one graph and a
headline that summarizes a key takeaway from the graph. The last page
should contain at least 3 questions that you would want answered based on
what you’ve seen in this comparison.

Your presentation should
include 5–6 slides in PowerPoint, plus title and reference slides with speaker
notes (200–250 words per slide).
Please submit your assignment.
