Educational Attainment
<br />7 Washington County
<br />Labor Supply Study
<br />March 2023
<br />Among Washington County’s population 18 or older, the local Asian population has the highest percent of residents holding a Bachelor’s
<br />degree or higher (56.9%), but it is the non-Hispanic White population that has the highest share of adults holding at least a high school
<br />diploma or equivalent (97.6%). By age cohort, about 12.4% of 18-to 24 -year-olds have not completed a high school diploma or equivalent
<br />credential, with this volume dropping to just 3.7% of all adults 25 years and older in Washington County (the 25-34 year cohort is most likely to
<br />hold a high school diploma or more education).

<br />Source: US Census Bureau, 2021 5-Year ACS. Data on White talent that includes
<br />Hispanic/Latinx, and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islanders have been excluded from
<br />this table due to redundancy in the first instance and small sample sizes in the
<br />second (only 138 individuals); NH/PI has been combined with “some other race.”
