Background on Military Veterans
• Over 1.5 million servicemembers have participated during Operation Iraqi Freedom (2003-2011) and/or Operation Enduring Freedom (2001-Present).
• Many of them will be expected to transition into civilian life, becoming veterans.
• Currently, there are no descriptive or empirical studies that investigate the characteristics and needs of veterans.
• What economic, health, educational, and employment features can we learn about veterans?

• Veterans are less likely to be unemployed and more likely to have higher median incomes (per household) and baccalaureate degrees than nonveterans.
• However, veterans are significantly more likely to have a disability compared to nonveterans.

Future Inquiries and Research
• What services and/or programs, if any, might veterans need to transition into civilian life?
• Disparate Impact Analysis (DIA) given race, age, sex, income, and other factors.
• Focus on a specific location, such as Los Angeles, and explore associations between available data.
