Divorce Statistics: Divorced and Separated Marital Status
According to the latest U.S. Census Bureau, the divorce inforgraphic below illustrates the percentage of people who declare their marital status as divorced or separated.
The Census Bureau takes a Current Population Survey every March. The statistics are from March 2008, the latest census results released.
It’s surprising to note the drastic difference between the percentage of people divorced and the percentage of people separated.
This entire divorce population isn’t represented because remarried divorcees file under the married marital status. The numbers also don’t include people who have never been married.

Good work on compiling these statistics. It’s interesting to see the separation rates for the younger couples.
