Since my son is in 5th grade and we were collecting stats from the census page, thought it interesting 
to look at Nevada's 2010 census stats.  For any GES 5th grader needing to get state population
information you can click on "select another state" from here or go to: http://2010.census.gov/2010census/data/.
Only the states that are blue have their data uploaded at this point. But for more fun go to: http://www.census.gov/schools/facts/ to find some fun facts to add to your state reports.
