Question
CARL, I'M LOOKING FOR DEMOGRAPHICS INFO ON TEENS/YOUTH 15-34 YEARS, LIVING IN THE NEW YORK METRO AREA FOR A PAPER I'M WRITING, THE NY METRO AREA INCLUDES NYC, LONG ISLAND, N. NEW JERSEY, AND S.CONN...PLEASE DO YOU KNOW WHERE I CAN FIND THESE ANSWERS?  

Answer
I would go to Google and put in variations of the search keys:

demographics teen teenagers Christian New York, etc.

If you're actually in NY, go to the public library and there should be a research department and ask a research librarian for assistance - you might also check at Columbia.

Barna Research does a lot of Christian emphasis polls and studies - google Barna to see what you can find.

hope this helps.
