18 Child Care Market Supply and Demand Center and Family Child Care for Children under Age 13 1 Demand data for 1990 collected for children under age 16. Although we adjusted for the additional three years, since child care usage is greatest for children under age 5, this number overestimates child care demand. The 1990 supply estimate is an underestimate as not all of the state was covered by an R&R. Sources: Oregon Population Survey, combined CCD Regulatory and R&R data. 1
