"Need the current population of Four Oaks? Want to know the median family income for Currituck County? The projected school age population for 2030? The amount of fees collected by a state agency? Measures of performance for a state fund? Per capita personal income for the state annually since 1969 and how it compares recently with other states?
The Office of State Budget and Management (OSBM) is likely to have easy access to the statistical information you need."

Facts and Figures
Effective budgeting requires reliable information to assess needs, available resources, and indicators of conditions being addressed by state programs. OSBM informs the budgeting process and meets the data needs of the public by developing, collecting, and organizing a variety of state and federal agency statistics. Not only do these rich resources serve as vital tools in the budget process, they also are important to businesses, local governments, academic communities, grant organizations, the media, and the public, especially at the sub-state level.
Users interested in data on budgeting, management, performance, and accountability may view the annual certified budget, access societal indicators or agency performance measures, or examine agency fees.

"NC is not the same today as it was in 2000 or 1990. Demographic data can provide critical insight on where we have been and where we are heading, insight that can help in shaping the North Carolina of tomorrow."
