Yes. There are data in the ACS. However, the disability definitions and questions have changed since 2000 and in previous additions of the ACS. The latest change occurred in 2008. Because of this the disability data are only available in the 1-year file (at the moment). The new 3-year file should have the disability data (2008-2010). The ACS data are not comparable to the Census 2000 data.

Do we have any disability data which is newer than Census 2000. I could not find any in ACS nor in Census 2010.
