With a new website, the Institute of Statistics of Puerto Rico

San Juan, Puerto Rico. January 2, 2026. The Puerto Rico Statistics Institute announced the launch of its new website, a digital platform framed by the transparency and accessibility of critical statistics for Puerto Rico. The new website, available through: https://www.estadisticas.pr.gov, focuses on a better user experience with a better search engine, allowing for more intuitive navigation. The more than 300 statistical products contained in the new platform are rigorously organized by categories that make it easier to find information. This logical architecture makes it easier for students, researchers and citizens to locate specific indicators on economy, health, education or demography, among other topics, consolidating in a single access point the vast production of data and interactive dashboards that were previously more dispersed.

On the other hand, the new portal launches a dynamic blog section designed as an institutional chronicle center that includes, among others: press releases, recent activities, explanatory memorials, and notifications of importance to Puerto Rico. Another important aspect of the new website is that it has been designed to the highest standards to guarantee access for people with disabilities or with diverse access needs. In the same way, the cybersecurity of the portal was substantially improved. “With the creation of this new website, the Institute consolidates its leadership in providing Puerto Rico with quick and universal access to statistics, eliminating barriers and reaffirming that statistical knowledge is a right for the entire population,” said Dr. Orville M. Disdier, executive director of the Institute.

Anyone who has questions about the functionality of the new page or has difficulty finding any data or information on the page, can write to preguntas@estadisticas.pr. They can also follow social networks through Facebook (@estadisticas .pr), X (@EstadisticasPR), LinkedIn (Institute of Statistics of Puerto Rico) and Instagram (@institutodeestadisticas) accounts.

The Puerto Rico Statistics Institute is an autonomous governmental entity responsible for coordinating the Government's statistical production service to ensure that the data collection and statistics systems, on which public policies are based, are complete, reliable, and have quick and universal access.
