  • Hispanic-Profile-Data-Book-2017
    1 2 Highlights Idaho Hispanics make up … 12% of the total population 12% of the labor force 18% of K-12 public school students 27% of the uninsured 2% of Idaho public school teachers 3% of registered voters Three-fourths of Idaho’s Hispanics were born in the U.S. 9-in-10 live south of a line from Payette County to Madison and Bonneville counties. Hispanics accounted for: 30% of the state’s population growth between 2010 and 2015 42% of K-12 public school enrollment growth between the 2010-11 and 2015-16 school years 37% of employment growth between 2009 and 2015 However, Hispanic population growth in Idaho is slowing. On an annual basis, the population grew 9% in the 1990s, 7% in the 2000s, and 2% from 2010-2015. In terms of education, Idaho Hispanic students are less proficient in basic subjects and less prepared for college and career than non-Hispanics, based on standardized test scores. Students in the English Learner program score the lowest on standardized tests. Compared to non-Hispanics, Hispanics in Idaho have higher unemployment and poverty rates. They also have lower average annual wages and household income. However, their economic well-being has improved since the recession. The Hispanic unemployment rate is down 8 percentage points; the non-Hispanic rate is down 4 points. The Hispanic poverty rate is down 5 percentage points; the non-Hispanic rate is up 1.5 points. The number of employed Hispanics is up 34%; the number of employed non-Hispanics is up 6%. What accounts for these findings? First, Hispanics are more likely to be in the labor force and to work in growing occupations and industries.

  • Introduction
    Introduction Idaho Fiscal Facts is a pocket reference guide de- signed to provide legislators with convenient access to facts, figures and trends in Idaho’s state budget, as well as selected information on state government programs, taxes, demographics and state rankings. Though not a comprehensive fiscal report, Idaho Fiscal Facts will answer many frequently asked questions, in a format that is more accessible than would be found in a comprehensive fiscal publication. This booklet has been published annually since 1995. Idaho Fiscal Facts is organized into three major sections: I. The Revenues & Expenditures section provides tables, graphs and narratives which outlines the history, source and distribution of state revenues, as well as, statewide budget information. II. The Functional Areas section includes more detailed information on specific state agencies, programs and trends using ten-year comparisons between FY 1994 and FY 2004. III. The State Facts & Demographics section includes more general information of statewide interest including population trends, Idaho rankings nation- ally, and an overview of the Legislative Branch of government.

Your time is important and we thank you for assisting us in this endeavor. Similarly, we would like to thank specific individuals and agencies for their assistance in our data collection efforts: Misty Kifer and her staff at the Statistical Analysis Center provided us with the IIBRS data and explained the coding process. Luann Dettman and her staff at the Idaho Council on Domestic Violence & Victim Assistance shared their reporting data from funded agencies. The Department of Criminal Justice at Boise State University provided additional funding for the site visits as they were not part of the contractual agreement for the assessment, but turned out to be enormously illustrative. Juan Lopez, Department of Criminal Justice at Boise State University, was invaluable during the planning, instrument development, and data collection phases of this study. Kourtnie Rodgers, Department of Criminal Justice at Boise State University, delivered much appreciated, last minute, assistance on the tables in this report. On a separate note, we want to thank the Idaho Council on Domestic Violence & Victim Assistance for allowing us the opportunity to conduct this two year study.
