‡Reporting standards not met. Either there are too few cases for a reliable estimate or the coefficient of variation (CV) is 50 percent or greater.
1 Includes equivalency credentials, such as the GED credential.
2 Includes persons with no college degree as well as those with an associate's degree.
3 Includes Pacific Islanders.
4 Poor is defined to include families with incomes below the poverty threshold. Nonpoor is defined to include families with incomes at or above the poverty threshold. For information about how the Census Bureau determines who is in poverty, see https://www.census.gov/topics/income-poverty/poverty/guidance/poverty-measures.html.  
NOTE: Race categories exclude persons of Hispanic ethnicity. Beginning in 2010, standard errors were computed using replicate weights, which produced more precise values than the generalized variance function methodology previously used. Detail may not sum to totals because of rounding. Data are based on sample surveys of the noninstitutionalized population, which excludes persons living in institutions (e.g., prisons or nursing facilities); this table includes only data on the civilian population (excludes all military personnel).
