Psychology & social sciencefree
Survey research on US public opinion, demographics and tech use. Report pages and downloadable topline PDFs both make solid grounded sources.
Good fit for a notebook tracking how Americans think about a policy, technology, or social issue over time, since Pew publishes methodology alongside every finding. It's nonpartisan and widely trusted across the political spectrum, which matters if your notebook needs a neutral read on opinion data. Coverage leans heavily US-focused, so don't expect it to anchor a global comparison.
