Dutchess County Comptroller Dan Aymar-Blair has released the first in a new series of brief, informational reports for County leaders and taxpayers. Each “By the Numbers” one-sheet will focus on a particular population or subject relevant to County taxpayers. The first in the series, focusing on Veterans, was produced in coordination with the Office of Veterans Affairs, and includes data such as periods of service, demographics, and available benefits.
“It’s been a priority from the start of my time as Comptroller to present the public with regular, easily digestible data points that can better inform them about where they live, work, and pay taxes,” said the Comptroller. “We’re hoping that this series of regular reporting will be a useful source of information for residents as well as policymakers.”
“Understanding the number of veterans residing in our County is crucial for ensuring they receive the support and resources they deserve,” said Adam Roche, Director of the Office of Veterans Affairs. “Accurate data allows us to tailor our programs and services effectively, ensuring that every veteran knows they are valued and cared for in our community.”
Each “By the Numbers” will always be available in full on the Dutchess County website, as well as related social media platforms (Facebook and Instagram).
Issue #1: Dutchess County Veterans is now available.
