Abstract
A database designed to provide a statistically significant model of the demographics of the continental US population is presented. Recognition performance on a simple digit recognition task is analyzed and shown to be most highly correlated with signal-to-noise ratio, dialect, and age. Several other demographic features, including sex, income level, education level, and market size, are found to have little correlation with recognition error rate
