| 2 Prior to 1972, White and Black data include persons of Hispanic ethnicity. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 3 After 2002, data for individual race categories exclude persons of Two or more races. In 2002 and earlier years, the questionnaire did not include the "Two or more races" category, and each respondent could select only one race category. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| NOTE: Includes 18- to 24-year-olds enrolled in college or graduate school. Data are based on sample surveys of the civilian noninstitutionalized population, which excludes persons in the military and persons living in institutions (e.g., prisons or nursing facilities). Prior to 2010, standard errors were computed using generalized variance function methodology rather than the more precise replicate weight methodology used in later years. Totals include other racial/ethnic groups not separately shown. Race categories exclude persons of Hispanic ethnicity except where otherwise noted. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
