‡Reporting standards not met.

NOTE: Total includes other racial/ethnic groups not shown separately. Although cells with fewer than 75,000 weighted persons are subject to relatively wide sampling variation, they are included in the table to permit various types of aggregations; see Appendix A: Guide to Sources or http://www.census.gov/apsd/techdoc/cps/cps-main.html for information on calculating standard errors. Race categories exclude persons of Hispanic ethnicity. Detail may not sum to totals because of rounding. Standard errors appear in parentheses.
